Jermain Taylor: "I Want To Make an Impact at 168"

[dmaclv]

Andre Ward step it up and fight JT. Be a good fight between the two of them with Dre gettin the UD and credited with a knockdown. Andre bring the title home son.

A little sensitive are we?

Did it LOOK like I was comparing Taylor to Calzaghe? I was referring to each of their approaches to their next fights.

I wasn't the one who brought up the Welshing Wonder in the first place.

And when Calzaghe has the balls to fight Pavlik, ONCE much less twice, and not use smoke and mirrors bull**** to make his fight selections look legit, then maybe he will have half the integrity and character of Taylor.

Calzaghe can approach his next fight whichever way he wants as hes an undefeated double weight lineal champ and is 37 years old

Taylor is the one with something to prove.

Integrity and character? He fought Pavlik for the same reason Joe is fighting Roy. $$$

Taylor > Calzaghe

When Taylor achieves half of what Calzaghe has in the sport maybe you can compare them.

When Calzaghe gets knocked the **** out and decisioned back to back by the same guy, then maybe you can compare him to Taylor.

Taylor is no Super Joe at this point in his career. I mean he only lost 2 action pakced fights in a row against one of the best P4P in the world. He fought to a draw with Winky Wright who beat Mosely and Trinidad and lost to Hopkins. He beat Hopkins two times both by close decision as Joe did a few months ago. So to compare the two would be ludacris right????? Joe has a 0 in the loss column and carefully chose his opponents wiselt and fought the ones he did at the right time to conserve that o. he is a great fighter and Champion and deserves credit but he is often too hyped up by Brits...,....Lefty

You are naive if you think Calzaghe has nothing to prove. Have you listened to boxing fans lately? Read what they have to say? Calzaghe is accomplished, but it's not as though his legacy is set in stone yet and he could still be doing a LOT to prove to the public that he is the legend he seems to think he is.

As for Taylor fighting Pavlik for money, of course he did. And he admitted as much. The money was there for Calzaghe to fight Pavlik as well, but instead he was ****** enough to give a 40 year old, shot RJJ 50% of the purse and try to sell it as a more legitimate challenge than Pavlik. It's not his intentions that I have a problem with, it's his ****ing bull****.

Yes I listen to boxing fans. Not "Cal***gy sux, euro bum, pavlik wud ko him LULZ PWN!!!" fans. Hes proved himself for a decade. Taylor has proved he can get a few questionable decisions.

Pavlik was the money fight for Taylor. Roy is the money fight for Joe. So dont talk about integrity.

Jones is a much harder fight in my opinion

[MANGLER]

He ain't makin much impact beatin up on poor Lacy. Still say he shoulda fought Froch for the belt first, but oh well. Fun while it lasts, Taylor KO.

Why are you even bothering to bring up Taylor's record to try to discredit my criticism of Joe? Taylor's record or quality has nothing to do with this; I haven't mentioned it once. You keep bringing it up as an attempt at misdirection because you have no real defense for Joe's bull**** behavior.
