    I was more entertained by Steward's bickering to Taylor

      Styles make fights. I knew coming into the fight that Spinks had the potiental to make JT look bad. Elusive, southpaw. I like Jermain Taylor, he seems like a good guy, but he was handed a couple of gifts in his fights with Winky and B-Hop. Now he can't put down a guy that Judah smashed at 147? Thats not a good look. Once again, I actually like Taylor, but the face of the middleweight divison? The man has one of the beat jabs in the game, but he seems at times like he can't throw a combo to save his life.

Taylor looked gun shy and confused the entire fight. It was a \n ugly fight but Spinks clearly won!!! As PBF what say, "Easy Work."
        Exactly my thoughts, Taylor did absolutely squat. I give him this, he landed the harder punches but he was suppose to. But, how often? I seen him land flush punches maybe every 2-3 rounds. Spinks landed less power punches, but was more aggressive. Spinks style is almost identical to Floyd Mayweathers, "HIT" & "NOT GET HIT". Spinks controlled the fight with his Right Jab, counter punched when the chance presented itself. While Taylor, on the other hand did not do anything. The last round he let it out, and hardly touched Spinks.
