I didn't think it was a robbery, thought Josh edged it in the championship rounds but those scores were ridiculous. I remember Mcguigan admitting the scores were too wide after the fight.
Just scored Taylor Postol,100%Robbery imo,it amazes me how UK fans cry robbery/judges etc.But Taylor legit ROBBED Postol,among worst I've seen,& Prograis too.

I had Josh taking it against Postol by the KD and a round. Think I had him by a round against Regis too. In both cases they were real close going in to the Championship rounds with Taylor just seeming to have that extra bit of dog to get him over the finish line.
Robbery? Hell no. Not in either case. Pull up the RBRs and the live scorecards man.
other thing to remember is Taylor fought a 34 year old Postol and JCR fought a 36 year old version. Course, for comparison Bud beat Postol still pretty much in his prime and much more convincingly than either of em.
Reckon most folk saw Chon vs Ramirez as closer than Rougarou vs Taylor, but either way it's fair to say both have been tested by their best opponents.

I would have to rewatch the Postal fight but the Prograis one was a close fight where at the time I felt Taylor edged it.Comment

Never heard Taylor vs Postol called a robbery, wider cards than they shoulda been, but absolutely no chance Postol won, sounds like biased ramblings.
Eye on the ring score cards have Taylor vs Postol at a 0% controversy where as Ramirez vs Postol is at 64%.

You’re clearly being biased or can’t score for ****.
Also we’re comparing 13 fight Taylor vs 26 fight Ramirez, Ramirez was still fighting cans.
Nothing wrong with thinking Ramirez can win but Taylor has done more in less time, he’s earned his favourite tag.

I was pulling for Prograis but I thought he lost by a cvnt hair. Very close fight but I didn't come away from it feeling like Regis had won.
Postol-Taylor was also close but Taylor separated himself a tad bit more in that one. And there's no doubt that Ramirez had a harder time of it against Postol as even he admits he wasn't happy with that performance.Comment

What an awful thread. The Postol fight was a CLEAR win. Prograis was a great, close fight that could've gone either way, which is most neutral, rational fans' view. Not even close to a robbery.Comment

118-110,119-108,117-108 those have to be the worst scorecards I've ever seen,Postol CLEARLY won 6 of the 1st 8 rds,yet these corrupt UK judges gave Taylor like every rd,(no wonder they don't release rd rd by rd cards)
I honestly am not a fan of either Ramirez/Taylor(Taylor impressed me v Prograis by surviving with that eye) but I have been rewatching boths fights & scoring,& I am astonished at the scorecards in both Taylor fights. And the irony is that ppl crying about the judges assigned are saying Taylor has to win clearly, laughable absolutely laughable imo, especially when considering that Ramirez beat Postol CLEARLY imho(& Wards opinion too,but Tim Bradley disagreed about Ward giving Ramirez early rds)
But to me the irony is that the same 3 judges from Ramirez v Postol were assigned to this fight,yet its TAYLOR fans saying he needs to win clearly (despite Ramirez beating Postol clearly & barely scraping a SD,& 1 judge had a draw,yet when Postol schooled Taylor in his own backyard, somehow he lost every rd)
(IF YOU DISAGREE THATS FINE,we can debate)
Ramirez did not beat Ramirez clearly either.
I had it 115-113 to Postol.
This is clearly a troll thread…

Taylor-Postol I thought was a close fight for the first half and then Taylor began to out-muscle him. The judges cards were too wide, but I don't think the result was wrong. Postol posed problems when he could keep Taylor at range, but Taylor did get to him in the second half, including a knock down. I also thought in the close rounds that it was Taylor who generally landed the big shots (with the exception of the 7th when Postol really got to him).

Apparently many of you don't get it,I already said Prograis fight could've gone either way,(but 1 card was a pre filled robbery card)
Postol won AT LEAST 6 rds v Taylor,yet he lost every rd on the cards, EPIC ROBBERY IMHO
& Regardless if the Ramirez postol fight was close,Ramirez didn't get schooled 1st 8-9 rds like Taylor did.Comment
