by FlyByKnight on Apr 27, 2009 11:33 AM EDT

Round 01: 10-9 (Taylor)
Round 02: 10-9 (Froch)
Round 03: 10-8 (Taylor)
Round 04: 10-9 (Taylor)
Round 05: 10-9 (Taylor)
Round 06: 10-9 (Taylor)
Round 07: 10-9 (Taylor)
Round 08: 10-9 (Taylor)
Round 09: 10-9 (Froch)
Round 10: 10-9 (Froch)
Round 11: 10-10 (Even)

At the time of the stoppage, I had Taylor up 106-103. He would have won had he finished the fight.

Also, did anyone else catch the right elbow Froch landed with 1:27 left in the 12th and final round?

yep

Pretty good dirty boxing. If he’d been caught he should’ve been docked a point. It was that blatant.

The referee was on the wrong side of the action but that was as clear as day.

I mean, wow. I was so amazed by that. And then, like five seconds later, Froch punched Taylor in the back of the head. It was all bad.

Jermaine has been known to throw an elbow or three...

But he got bombed out, period. There was nothing fishy about the refereeing, the score or the stoppage. The bottom line is that Taylor cannot hang with big bangers with good chins. I would pick Andrade to overwhelm and beat Jermaine in much the same way.

I don’t think anyone here is going to argue against that. I was just pointing it out.

He had a rabbit punch in there but in the middle of things I would have hated from the ref to go all Joe Cortez on us.
