if julian jackson was in his prime and middleweight champion right now,and jermain taylor was the #1 contender with only 25 fights who would you pick?
I'd take Jackson any day of the week over Taylor. i have nothing against Taylor, but like some one said in this thread, if Hopkins was landing on Taylor, Jackson would've had him out of there.
there is no joke to that, all Jackson had to do was catch you with one punch and it was over. he was a great finisher too, but you never really got to see that due to the fact that Jackson took most of his KO victims out with one punch!
Jackson is one of my favorite fighters of all time, when i started following boxing seriously is when he made his climb to 154lb champ. he was like a childhood hero.
the only thing about KO punchers is that some time down the road their chin gets busted or exposed. i guess having a weak chin is the trade off for having a massive punch in either hand.
Jackson mid round KO over Taylor.
im going to wait and see how taylor's career pans out to make this call. the dude has only had 25 fights!
