Taylor said that he WAS NOT in the best shape

[Tobi.G]

I think in the countdown to the fight shown on HBO, Steward said that Taylor had been sparring too much before fights before he was Jermain's trainer. Steward cut down Taylor's sparring so he'd have more energy for the actual fight.

Which is total bull****!! You have to sparr, day in and day out!! Read this quote from the great Kevin Rooney:

“I had Mike sparring 10 rounds everyday... 5 days a week! It was an all out war EVERYDAY. There was none of that one day on and one day off crap. To be a great fighter... you have to spar. You gotta spar everyday, day in and day out, week after week. With Mike, I would spar him up until two or three days before a fight.”

Thats the reason why Tyson was so great when Damato and Rooney trained him.

Everybody is entitled to an excuse and jermain surely needs one.
