    What can't you stand the fact that he's champ or the fact he's beaten some very good boxers?


    You must be kidding right? Taylor was installed as the middleweight champ based on the fact that he is was considered to be young, good looking, and didn't seem like the kind of guy that would do something crazt outside the ring.

    Many people never appreciated Bernard Hopkins and they couldn't wait to get rid of him. When Jermain couldn't get it done all on his own he was given the benifit of the doubt. Of course, Jermain has been so awesome since being crowned the champion...

    My previous comment was uncalled for as Jermain seems to be a pretty decent person. But As a boxer, he is the the biggest waste of time I have seen in years. I can't believe anyone would really take up for him as a boxer.

    How does someone become a big Jermain Taylor fan anyway?

      By watching all of his fights since he was an Olympian and knowing how good he really is and not talking out of my ass about a fighter I really know nothing about.I don't see why people blame his timing of coming into boxing it's not his fault Hopkins was on his way out.That also has nothing to do with him beating Winky and the other top guys he's beaten.You can ***** and moan all you want but the fact is he's beaten them.


      end of story.

            Well, I always saw the first Hopkins vs Taylor fight as a bit of a gift to Taylor. I figured it was because he was young and pretty, ideal poster-boy for HBO, unlike Hopkins.

                They need to part ways. Taylor seems to be eroding in skills and Stewart is just not getting through to him. They just are not good for each other.

                  In my eyes Hopkins waited to long into the fight to start doing something Taylor won the majority of the early rounds.

                      Taylor was one of my favorite fighters but he has gotten worse and he just will not listen. He won't keep his left up so he keeps getting hit with rights. He's getting hard to watch. I agree with most of you that Manny should give Taylor the boot in the ass instead. Nomatter what, Taylor won't listen until he gets ko'd.
