I did. Then about an hour or two before the actual fight they showed a clip of him asking somebody if he still got it and I was like wtf. I didn't bother watching it just from that alone i changed my mind about him,
Do he still got it?
He looked the best he’s looked since beating Loma. I called it dead wrong and Teo absolutely dominated. Congrats to Lopez and his team.
Even Teo at his worst is tuff to whip. I could be wrong cause I watch little of Taylor’s fights. I don’t see anything that damn special.
I’m picking Teo by decision.
I don’t see how he wins this tbh. Josh is a better boxer, better work rate, tougher, higher IQ, mentally stronger etc
Lopez has the faster hands. I’m not picking him to win but that’s one thing he does have going for him.
I got Lopez winning by KO.
Taylor is good, but he likes to mix it up too much and Lopez punches are quick and lethal st close distance.
He was able to smother Prograis, but I think Lopez is a bit quicker.
Plus Taylor looked pretty bad against Catterall, and just changed trainers....that's usually not a good sign.
Not sure about this one. If the Taylor that beat Ramirez shows up, it could be 50/50. That version is crafty, clinches when in a tough spot, then unleashes KO power in the clinch. He also has the ability to time the opponent after a few rounds of getting familiar with his routine, etc. But Teo is a different animal. He can be careless, but he can also be patient, can spot dangers, got aggressive moves that would rattle the opponent. Could be a close fight going the distance.
yeah im picking lopez, will give him the benefit of the doubt in his last fights and put it down to him not being motivated whereas i like to think we will see his best version in this one
What have you see on Lopez’ game that makes you think he’ll win? Taylor will drown the mental midget
I think Taylor makes Lopez quit on his stool and Lopez’s dad gets pissed off at him and Lopez announces he will be done with boxing. Something is not right with Lopez with all the issues he’s been having
I will give Lopez a big chance. When you really think about it? Although Taylor has been a undisputed Champion 'He has not really fought in any mega fights'.
Taylor does not have any win on his record skill for skill, on the level of Lomachenko.
Lopez has the best win on his resume, and he has won bigger fights than Taylor.
Note: Teofimo Lopez vs Josh Taylor 'Is the biggest fight Taylor has ever been involved in' etc.
