Taylor is one of my faves on that list but it's just too bad he was beaten by Pavlik twice, Froch and Abraham at a pretty young age, and badly too. I would understand if it was like Roy who started losing fights at mid 30s-late 30s after he already made his legendary move up to HW. But losing like that at late 20s-early 30s and just like 30 fights really hurts your chances at the HOF. I would also understand being 30 and being battle worn from 40-50 pro fights but 33 fights..na. Winky was a good fight but a draw, Hopkins were two good wins, Lacy was boarder line win, Ouma was an alright win, Joppy was an ok win, Raul Marquez was an ok win.
