    Taylor's a very good boxer but not quite great. He doesn't have that true elite level in him. He is still a very good boxer though this loss will take a lot out of him in my opinion.

      Physically and technically he is as good as anyone in this weight class, the problems seems to me at least to be the mental aspect of his game.

          when a guy loses to a brit fighter......it's a sign that 1. he's not that good or 2. you're 40 yrs. old and should retire.

            I know Taylor used to be good but how good is he really and for a professional boxer how come he has stamina problems?
            Taylor is decent, but he is just not as good as advertised. I firmly believe that the only reason he beat Hopkins is because it was fought at a snails pace where his stamina was not an issue.

            A lot of people think he lost to Winky.

            He was supposed to beat Spinks. Spinks was a 147 pounder coming up, and Spinks lost himself the fight by running away and fighting negative.

            He beat Ouma which he was expected to do, but looked terrible doing it. Ouma another blown up 154 pounder this time.

              The first few rounds he was boxing good . He was outboxing Froch and he's the first fighter ever to put him down . I think it's just his stamina as well tbh.
