Iconic Image Of Medrick Taylor Stopped In That Infamous 12 Round vs Chavez

Had arguably his best win of his career after the chavez fight against davis. The damage he took in the chavez fight is way overstated. That doesn't even make sense,Chavez kod him even easier the 2nd time they fought 4 yrs later(& Taylor was 4 yrs younger than Chavez & faced nowhere near the competition let alone ever fight 6x in 1 yr like JCC did even the yr he fought Sweat pea) I swear Taylor fanbois are truly such revisionist. Taylor was about to die on his feet ffs,& yet dumbass announcers acted as if Taylor was robbed & didn't give Chavez his due(because those commentators were racist against latinos especially the ones that beat up their fav american hypejobs like JCC did)

Sad that the win was stolen from him. That BS stoppage changed his life forever. It was all downhill from there, in and out of the ring. His career in the ring went downhill because Chavez beat the hell out of him that night. The beating he took ruined him, doesn’t matter what the scorecards say. Chavez ended his career that night Had arguably his best win of his career after the chavez fight against davis. The damage he took in the chavez fight is way overstated.

If it we’re any other ref such as a Rudy Battle, Smoger, merchante, maybe. But this is Richard Steele who has a history of bs with Kung fighters. Another bad stoppage was Tyson vs ruddock I.

Ccut the bs. Steele was Don King’s guy How is it BS, The reff asked him questions, Taylor did not respond. if you struggle to comphrend that then idk what to tell you. If Taylor responded and Steele still waved it off then you would have case, he didnt and you dont.

nope. the reff should pay zero attention to the time, he asked Taylor to respond, taylor did not respond. he stopped the fight, i dont get why people have such a hard time understanding that. Ccut the bs. Steele was Don King’s guy

One of the worst stoppages i have ever seen. He deserved that win and it was stolen from him. nope. the reff should pay zero attention to the time, he asked Taylor to respond, taylor did not respond. he stopped the fight, i dont get why people have such a hard time understanding that.

Makes it hard to argue with Steeles decision ... photo is so impactful... imagine having the man right in front of you ...

Damn. That picture says it all. Great shot
