    Jermaine Taylor's biggest flaw

    In your opinion, what is the biggest technical mistake JT has made has over his last few fights?

    I think it's his inability to keep his hands up after he throws combinations or the amatuer way he over exert himself when he goes in for "the kill".

    IMO...both mistakes cost him the fight with Pavlik.

    Agreed, he constantly keeps his hands down.

        He keep his hands too low most of the time and has a amateurish style about him although that makes him accurate in his punching and makes him an econmical fighter but HE NEEDS TO KEEP THEM DAMN HANDS UP!

          keeeping his left hand down, when they knew what pavlik brought to the table.. why absorb several right hands straight to the head?? why the **** have a trainer, when he doesnt coach or instruct you the right way..

          most of the right hands could easely have been blocked, had he held his left hand high at all times..

            yea he lacks defense and also he goes straight back with his hands down which is a big mistake. he is a great athlete tho and i hope he bounces back soon at 168.

              Jermain keeps his hands low, and worst of all he backs himself into traps(see Pavlik fight). When he was backing up he backed into the corner or into the ropes and Pavlik started nailing him. He sucks fighting off the ropes for the most part until he starts throwing wild shots.

              I still was shocked he knocked Pavlik down. But then he headhunted too much.

                sad to say but jermain should be dropping his left ,, he needs a mayweather for a trainer..he needs to learn the shoulder roll
