    Did Taylor won or lost your respect last night?

    It's always the same with Taylor, a great talented athlete who puts a lot of rounds in the bag with his superior skills and then somethings happens, either he gets caught with something big and can't recover or he badly fades in the championship rounds leading to disputable decisions.

    In my opinion, he never embarrassed himself in none of his 3 defeats.

    No reason not to respect him. He fought his ass off in the loss. Props for a non ***gy avatar too TS.

      Already had my respect. I just don't think he's too good of a fighter. Good boxer but flawed defense and bad stamina. Some of that can be corrected but I don't think he wants greatness, so it won't be...

        He didn't have my respect to begin with.

        Not to sound fucked up or whatever and past all the usual "I respect anyone who steps into the ring" talk, I've just never really respected him.

              He showed he has heart to me. That KD in the 12th, he looked out of it. I didn't think he'd get up at all, but he did. Even when he was hurt bad in the 12th, he tried to fire back too. He really needs to sort his **** out though. He fades in the late rounds all the fucking time...

                i haven't lost my respect for him, but im dissapointed that being the superior fighter he couldn't win the fight.

                  But you respect Froch who went life and death with Pascal and was dropped and outclassed last night losing on a 106-102 scorecard going into the 12th....yep, I see.

                    Give him credit for getting up after most people would've stayed down. But it's hard to take him serious anymore. You would think he learned his lesson against Pavlik the first time around. Fought the rematch only to survive. Fought against Lacy (who is a shell of his former self), had him hurt several times, couldn't finish him and faded late. Fights Froch and hurts him early as well and it's Pavlik I all over again. Taylor is mentally fragile, we will have to see what he does next.
