Felix Sturm vs. Jermain Taylor, who wins?

Agreed with concensus, Taylor by boring UD. Taylor relies a lot on his jab and Sturm has a good one as well, so that might trouble Jermain a bit. Not enough for Sturm to win it though.

A late ko by Taylor is what I see happening.

i hate taylor, but i don't see sturm beating him. taylor's natural athleticism will win him a sloppy UD against sturm, he won't even need the hometown decision in this fight My thoughts exactly.

I say Sturm.. But Im also a big sturm fan, so theres some bias in there.. But I think its a close ifght that definetly goes the distance.. aslong as there isnt no hometown robbery, sturm has a good chance of winning.. we all saw him give oscar a boxing lesson.. I honestly think a fight with him and JT is close. Jt would throw more shots and Felix would have considerable higher connect rate.. He really picks his shots.. Blocks well similar to winky and lands clean shots after he blocks his opponents combo.. Some people judge too much intp bein stopped in castilejo fight. He was way ahead on the cards, and the stoppage was somewhat premature. its very apparent he is much better boxer than castillejo, he just got caught with a good shot.. I think being robbed vs de la hoya was really damaging to him aswell..

What always bothered me, was he doesn't dispatch people like he should. There's no reason for a guy his size to flinch like a slimmer version of Jameel mcline whenever he gets on the inside and someone throws. Case and point him being backed up by Wink, and put on queer street against Nard in the final rounds of their first fight. That's just not supposed to happen when you have a big physical specimen like that fighting at middleweight. He never was like that, as far as I can remember. I watched a few of his early fights and I dont remember him being this gun shy as he is now. I guess B-Hop really did a number on him, cuz it's been since their first fight that he's been like this, imo.

Yeah I feel the same way. He is damn good, but he lacks in the technical area. His last fight with Ouma even though he won, he looked sloppy. I know he was going for a knockout, but he was backing up the whole fight and he was the bigger man. If his skills improved he could be that juggernaut, but If he hasn't learned yet I don't know if he will, especially with Emmanuel Steward as his trainer.

I think Taylor would KO him in the mid rounds.

Although I think JT is overrated to the max.....I still consider him a pretty damn good fighter. I just don't think he's the juggernaut everyone makes him out to be at all. Yeah I feel the same way.

taylor via UD.... btw i dont remember a more boring personality in boxing in a while....

Exactly. Taylor gets by with his athletic ability and against Sturm he would do the same. Sturm has seen better days and I actually think Taylor would stop him.

I don't think Sturm would stand any chance at all against Taylor. Sturm is in great condition but he's nowhere near as athletic, doesn't have the reach and size Taylor does even at 6 foot, and hasn't faced or beaten any where near the level of opposition Taylor has in his career.

While there was a time when I thought Sturm could possibly pull off a UD at Taylors expense......those days are gone.After getting stopped on his home turf by Castellejo whom is old now and lost many years back to DLH and then more recently to Vargas....I think Taylor would catch him and put him night night.......great fight for Taylor if he wants to keep hiding from the real fighters in the MW division......and at least Sturm is really a MW and some would say he beat DLH too. You read my mind. Sturm's close loss over Oscar made me wonder if he was legit or it was a case of Oscar (obviously blown up) getting used to the weight. Losing to Castellejo (albeit avenged) made me realize that it was the latter. Taylor wins a UD...maybe even by KO!

Sturm will win but get robbed as he is not an active type of fighter, judges will like taylors activitey

Taylor should be able to stop Sturm.

taylor by UD
