I think he's done. His stamina and chin will never allow him to be a world class fighter again. he's become a bigger version of Zab judah. classy guy, but he is now a stepping stone, like Zab.
i dont know..his career was so rushed he was never truely allowed to develop ..he was just a kid then got threw right in the deep end vs hopkins and winky..which then meant after fightin those 2 he had to keep his level of opponents high
he really shouldnt of fought hopins that early in his career
I don't think those fights affected as much as the fights afterward. he beat Hopkins at the tail end of his career and Taylor was the number one contender
Well. Taylor is still in the hospital, and expected to stay there for several days.
Lou DiBella says they don't know if they will continue with Taylor.
I think A.Green vs. A.Ward is up
if he's going to continue (and i dont think he should) his trainer and camp better come up with a way more defensive gameplan, otherwise he's going to get KTFO again and again. There's NO reason why he should have been KTFO in the last few seconds by slower-than-sh!t Froch. And to have it happen again against Abraham? His camp needs to work on his stamina, because the guy runs out of juice *badly* in the championship rounds. Work on his stamina and D. Or else pull the eject handle and parachute out of the tourney.
It's a sad sight. He should retire. I'm not watching his fight with Kessler. No point he will be brutally knocked out in that one. And it's just something I do not want to see.
Agree. he's a very classy guy who I believe should get out while he still has his faculties.

he needs to retire he has made good money and if he wants to be in good health to enjoy it he needs to hang up the gloves he has lost 4 of his last five fight and was koed in 3 of them .
He was never the same after the first KO, kinda like RJ. Taylor seems like a cool dude I would hate to see him brain damages from a 4th KO. He should take some time to consider his options. I've always heard that after some people get KO'd its easier for them to get KO'd again, I think its called concussion syndrome. Feel bad for Taylor boxing is a tough game.
They need to disqualify him from the tourney. I know that sounds harsh, because Taylor gives it his all whenever he steps in the ring. But he will end up talking like Mark Breland and Meldrick Taylor here in a couple years. This is about the guy's health.
he should go back down to middleweight if he can. he cant compete with the power up in smw. that was a middle weight that knocked him out tonight. i honestly hope he doesnt fight kessler.
No, not just yet.
I wanna see him finish the super 6 tournament before I can make my decision.
But for now, will see how he does with his next 2 opponents.
Yes its time for him to retire or at least to remove himself from the tourney. Who's he fighting next Kessler? I would hate to see him end up like Meldrick Taylor.
yes.....i dont wanna see this guy end up like benitez, im not even trying to be funny. the amout of times he's getting hit is seriously getting dangerous.
Jt I thought overall tonight showed improvement despite being ko'd again
Imo he should have never jumped straight back into top competition the way he did, in the same token he should be commended for not fighting 10 bums before taking on a worldclass fighter.
