    What are the chances of Jermain Taylor pulling off a shock?

    He is probably the most experienced in terms of fighting the big names, ie Joppy, Hopkins, Wright, Pavlik, Froch. Has experience fighting on big occasions, and by no means the least favourite to win, so whats to say he can't do it???

    Jermain Taylor is the best fighter in the world below the neck.

    That's why he can't do it, IMO.

      I have a crazy feeling that he will win this.
      He was smashin FROCH untill he ran out of gas.
      He will destroy ABRAHAM!

        Jermain Taylor is very lucky to have this golden opportunity fall in his lap after the ring failures he's had in recent years. However, I don't think he has the mental toughness to pull it off....

          JT has the talent, but he's not going anywhere with Ozell Nelson in his corner. It's a crying shame that JT has been a pro for 9 years now and he still has STAMINA issues.

          If Taylor trained properly he'd be undefeated.

          I see Taylor getting KTFO once again by someone in this tourney because dude is not in world class shape.

            Taylor won't win this tourney, his stamina really ****s him up.

            His confidence will be at an all time low just now, being that he was just knocked out.

              Taylors loses could of been easily avoided, its saddening that he didn't put 100% in the past 2 years.

                Nothing wrong with his chin if that's what your hinting at?

                  he's very unreliable these days so i'm not gonna fully commit myself, but i'm picking him to win the whole thing

                  he beats Abraham easy, probably beats Froch in a rematch, 50-50 fight with Kessler, takes decisions against both Dirrell and Ward, IMO

                  obviously this is TAYLOR we're talking about so he'll slip up or suffer some bad luck along the way at least once though
