WBC super middleweight champion Carl Froch expected Arthur Abraham to beat Jermain Taylor on Saturday night in Germany, but even he was shocked at the way it went down. Abraham knocked Taylor out cold in the twelfth and final round of their fight. The KO came down with only seconds left before the final bell. Taylor was already coming off a April knockout loss, to Carl Froch, and that also went down in the twelfth round with only seconds to go in the fight.

“Jermain Taylor got knocked out again in the last round against Arthur Abraham so Taylor must be jinxed because it was exactly the same time in the same round that I knocked him out. I expected Abraham to beat him and obviously I expected to beat Dirrell so it’s all gone as I thought it would so far,” Froch told The Telegraph.

Taylor suffered a bad concussion from the knockout. He was taken to local hospital in Germany and won't return to the United States for several days. The doctors want to keep under observation for a few days. After two bad knockouts in back to back fashion, fans are asking Taylor to forget about the rest of the Super Six tournament and walk away. If Taylor continues with the Super Six, he will face Andre Ward in the first quarter of 2010. Ward challenges WBA champion Mikkel Kessler on November 21.
