You just watch, my boy will be avoided for maybe 2 years in the divsion, taylor will make excusses and pull every which way to get outta this fight, the whole divsion fears this man and it will show, taylor will dump both his belts just not to fight him, that is even if he can get past old man hopkins u might KO his ass and send him to the hospital with another concussion
There are bigger fish in the sea than Sturm at the moment so he will just have to wait and try to bring himself in an unavoidable position. I think he will have a shot within the next 2 years but i doubt he will win.
And I have said it before. How about taking on Arthur Abraham first to show that he is number one in europe. I doubt he could win that one.
who the fuck cares about punching power? did whitaker KO everyone? shut the fuck up about that shit, after sturm stomps masseo, he will be taylors manadtory challenger for both the wbo and wba titles, and bozo handled sturm easly before they turned pro come on did u even see the olyimpic fight?
Sturm's KO rate is extremely low for a world class fighter with that winning %, but i dont think that he doesnt have power. I think hes a lot like Wright, a great technical fighter. Feels more comfortable boxing. Everyone says he has no power, but like Wright, has enough to keep people honest, probably why hes so effective.
Sturm is high risk/low reward.
Taylor is much better than Sturm. Yes, Sturm has but Taylor will kill him. The speed is about the same but Strum cant punch and therfore wont be able to keep Taylor off, while Taylor hits hard.
Taylor Ko in 6
Yeah, we all know he received a gift that fight. Sturm was just a "stepping stone" for Hopkins. Anyone know who Sturm is fighting next?
According to boxrec, Sturm is fighting Maselino Masoe on November 26th, in Germany.
dela hoya was fighting 2 divisions above his ideal, was out of shape and still beat sturm.
what's a future light heavy going to do to sturm.
it's in sturms best interest that taylor avoids him.

I ain't fighter bashing or anything, but I think that DLH received a big gift that night. Felix Sturm clearly won that fight. I scored it 116-112 Sturm, although 115-113 Sturm was also acceptable.
So... you think that Sturm has a chance against Taylor... even though he couldn't put away an over-the-hill Golden Boy?
If this fight does happen, Taylor wins by unanimous decision or a late KO.
After Taylor knocks out Hopkins in the rematch, he will dominate Sturm, along with the rest of the division.
Assuming he does beat Hopkins in the rematch, which may happen, but I'm going to say it will be another close fight. Anyways, assuming he does go on to win, do you see him beating Winky? I agree that almost everyone else at 160 shouldn't give him too many problems, but I think Winky would probably give Taylor a lot of problems.
As for the thread, people have pretty much summed it up. Taylor is fighting Hopkins, how is he ducking Sturm? Seems to be a gap in logic there. No matter what you think of Bernard, he's still a world class boxer and along with Winky, is the biggest threat in the division.
Plus, if I remember it correctly, Winky gets a shot at the winner. So if Taylor does go on to win, he will be fighting another one of the best fighters around in Wright. Taylor has nothing to gain by fighting Sturm, and if they did meet up, I don't see how Taylor could lose.

Sturm looked extremly good in his last fight, He looked fast great defense great footwork he looked unstopable just great skills all around.
The only problem with him is that he cant not punch through a sheet of toilet paper.
Sturm fought yet another nobody in his last fight.
After Taylor knocks out Hopkins in the rematch,.
You have some points to back that statement up?
I'll bet you 100 million points that Hopkins wins.

What the hell has Sturm done to put him into a position to fight Taylor for the championship? He's fought nobodies, and couldn't finish the job against an out of shape DLH, who shouldn't have ever been at middle in the first place.
Taylor has his rematch with Hopkins coming up and then if he wins that a mandatory against Winky Wright or Sam Soliman. If he loses maybe he will get a rematch with Hopkins. Hes busy.
Stupid post.
Taylor has much bigger things than Felix Sturm on his mind right now.
exactly...
this is like the winky is ducking Ikeke
makes no sense for taylor to fight sturm
