JT's one of my favorite fighters, but 3 KOs in a row... like devastating KOs... I feel more worried for him then I do even about Roy... I mean jesus..
At LHW, I just don't know... the guy was KOed by 2 MWs and a firm SMW... now LHW?
I just don't know..

The AA fight was close imo, and I think he was ahead of Carl on the cards when he got stopped.
I just think he's gotten extremely unlucky in the last 2 fights.
I had him winning the Pavilk rematch too.

141 is my fighting weight though, when im training im usually at around 145-148 and then i come down to 141. then again if i dont train at all i drop beneath 140..
most ppl think i fight at 165 by looking at me, i dont look as skinny as i sound.

Not only does that kill your ability to take a punch, but any confidence you mustered up after your last two KOs, was completely killed by the last KO.
Not too mention long term effects by 3 devastating KOs.
Like I said it's not really how he performed in the fights, but the ending result.. 3 out of his last 4 fights ended in devastating fashion... it's scary as hell.
I root for Jermain everytime he gets in the ring... but it scares the **** out of me.

Yeah but the dude has gotten KTFO at 160 and twice at 168 all in devastating fashion. Probably not a good idea to jump up to LHW if he's getting sparked by guys at MW and SMW. Do you think he's still cutting enough weight getting to 168 to cause problems?
He did look really strong in the 360 episode though. He's a big dude.

I don't want to see Jermain return at that weight. I think he can make 168 comfortably, and as long as he stays in shape during his off time, and keeps his weight relatively lower than normal (As he did before the AA fight) he'll be able to comfortably come back at 168.
