The Super Middleweight Top 10 Thread +

I watched Taylor against Lacy, and it was a good performance, especially after the layoff and at the new weight and all...I liked the way he was cutting inside and clinching to avoid loopy shots, he seemed strong on the inside, he did it all well...I am glad to see that...he'll be a force and he'll get better as he gains more confidence. The thing that concerned me the most was the way Taylor was backing up in a straight line...man...that's not good news against someone like Kessler especially. So...here's my new SMW Top 10: 1. Kessler 2. Bute 3. Andrade 4. Taylor 5. Bika 6. Inkin The rest I will not rank until they prove they belong. So, what's your Top 10?

whats happening with Kessler is he looking to get with one of the american promoters because he only wants one more fight with Palle

Dirrell will take over the smw division. He will get a belt next year, and will become undisputed champ by 2010. He is a way better prospect than ward, and had he way with ward in the amatuers. This is why ward went up to 178 to compete in the 2004 olympics.

What has Taylor done to be rated at #2 in anyone's list? I'd have Kessler, Bute and Froch ahead of him for start. He'd be lucky to make top 5. One win against an utterly shot Jeff Lacy doesn't make you the #2 contender.

You have sigs turned on? If so, my bottom one is Green nearly killing Jaidon Codrington in about twenty seconds. The some Codrington that gave Bika hell. Him and Miranda had a hell of a war, as well. He is a top ten guy at SMW, no doubt. yeah i seen clips not full fights. and why is your sig dedicated to the guy getting knocked out in video?lol dont make fun of him he's from round my way.
