Comments Thread For: Josh Taylor Drops Jose Ramirez Twice, Wins Decision To Unify 140

WOW! What is next? go ahead and deny that you picked Jose Ramirez. We spoke about Taylors struggle to make weight, its been well documented. We addressed Josh defensive flaws and the many injuries hes suffered in notable fights, including this one. Why are you trying so hard to make me look bad here?

Admit it, you had little confidence in Josh Taylor but secretly wanted Taylor to win. I also suspect that you enjoy all his degenerate behavior ; I even think you even liked all of Billy Joe Saunders disgraceful antics and ducking. I'm beginning to see you for what you really are, a passive aggressive politically correct snob. Hell you might be even celebrating this 'loss' , thats how much of a weirdo you are.

I never had any conversations with you about Josh's flaws or weight and I don't need to make you look bad, or even try hard to do so, you do a damn good job of that yourself. I already told you I don't get on anyone's case about making a pick, but you continually flaunt your ******ity like it is a badge of honor by making outlandish statements. And I have gone on record as saying I dislike BJS. I also went on record as saying that Ramirez is a better person from what I have seen compared to Taylor. You are one fucked up and delusional person. Stop acting like I am making you a victim. How about you stop doing such a good job of it yourself.

One of the great things in this sport, a hype job gets exposed . ESPN's boy, LOL. He was matched up with some Mr Softies, that could hang inside. He got one here . The first KD...slip the right, ****!!

Decent fight but I didn't like all the holding that Taylor was doing.

I didn’t catch the opening rds, but I saw most of it at the casino.

It looked to me like Taylor controlled much of the action, but Ramirez had his moments here and there. KD’s were big and Ramirez was hurt for sure, but he recovered well and definitely won some of the last rds and had Taylor hurt a few times late. I think Ramirez’s come forward attitude and style was taking its toll on Taylor late, even though Taylor didn’t take too much punishment, Ramirez had Taylor thinking defense too much and Taylor was scoring less.

Looked close, but the right man won.

Does Taylor move up? Or does one of the undefeated guys from Lightweight move up and take on Taylor?

Well, here you are asking the money questions.

My take is that right now it would be a mistake for Taylor to move up. The fight that is waiting for him at 147 is Crawford. I'm not the biggest fan of Bud, but his pro experience is much more substantial than Taylor and I think he would find holes to exploit. Yes, he's cleaned out the division -- but Teo has been talking about moving up and would be a real challenge. That, to me, seems like a natural matchup in terms of two quality opponents with neither compromising themselves in terms of weight. That said, Teo would probably want to test himself at Jr welter with someone else first.

The same hold true if Taylor moves up to 147 -- no way it makes sense to go straight to Bud. Needs to test himself at the new weight first.

Sid, it's nice meeting you again mate. Congratulations! A Brit finally defeated a Mexican fighter tonight. I know that you are just elated with joy right now. I tip my hat to Josh Taylor on his victory against Jose Ramirez. He performed much better in this bout than he did against Regis Prograis. He managed to drop Ramirez twice which was probably the difference in the fight although I thought Taylor boxed beautifully and won by a larger margin than that.

Jordon Gill and Sam Eggington beat Mexicans. Taylor beat an American. So you're wrong.

The only reason for a few Mexicans getting wins was down to circumstances, nothing else. They get wiped out if the Brits are at their best. Hell, even Sam was at the disadvantage as he's really a Welter, not a Middle weight. Taylor being out for so long whilst Ramirez had had some good activity. But they both overcame the obstacles. Taylor would have knocked Ramirez out had the crooked ref not saved Ramirez twice with the extra time bullshlt. They were trying everything to get more titles through their corruption like so many of them already. We both know what happens with a fresh Taylor. And we both know what happens when Brits square off against you cowards the vast majority of the time too. Don't we?

You haven't got the money to bet me. Mowing lawns doesn't pay that well.

Ramirez wouldn't fight outside of the US. If he did, that would be even more painful than tonight. Your history is shocking overseas.

Taylor wouldn't be at the disadvantage in a rematch because he won't be so inactive. Taylor knocks Ramirez out when at his best. Even tonight he lost 9-3 and got dropped twice.

There won't be a rematch though as it isn't deserved. The only one who does deserves one is Prograis. But lets hope Prograis gets his hands on Ramirez after he ducked twice and all the madness Mexicans said about him. He'd dominate and knock Ramirez out.

However, the advantage didn't pay off tonight. Sorry. You're just going to have to swallow your bitter tears.

Just say the number and don’t worry about how I get my bread... bet or stfu simple

Give a number for a bet that won't come to fruition because a rematch isn't taken place?

Go and play with your toys and leave the adult world to do and say adult things, kid. You're talking a load of ******. But what's new.
