    Taylor looks like a mini Saunders. Employing the Klitscho holding tactic too. He’s a slick fighter. But sort of boring to watch. Ramirez looked stronger and threw the heavier shots thru out. Taylor ran, held and and secured his win. He didn’t want that Ramirez smoke. He did what he has to do I guess. Not a thrilling fighter though.

      That second KD was beautiful work from Taylor. Just perfect. Caught Ramirez slipping and made him PAY.

      Ramirez was damaged goods after that and didn't come close to recovery until the 11th. Gutsy performance but too little too late.

      Overall a great fight. Wouldn't mind seeing a rematch down the line if Taylor doesnt move up.

        With or without those tactics I see Crawford dominating and then stopping Taylor. Much more assortment of punches from Crawford than Ramirez had. A lot of great fights at 135-147 and some will get made and others wont.

          I never saw either fighter fight before tonight and I must say Jose Ramirez is a bit overrated or he just didn’t have a great night. His defense is not good at all, he just seemed to lunge at Taylor most of the fight. I didn’t see a game plan at all. Taylor on the other hand seemed very slick and was countering most of the time. I don’t think Ramirez wins in a rematch. Ramírez didn’t adjust he just kept doing the same thing over and over and was caught with that left all night. Anyway, great fight but I expected a little more from Ramirez considering all the great things I heard about him.

              Gotta give credit where its due, I thought ramirez was gonna dog taylor out and stop him late. Taylor is a really good fighter.

                Judging from most of these post fight comments now that Ramirez failed to do the job with his supporters thinking he would KO Taylor, Crawford is their next hope. The desperateness in wanting to see Taylor get KO is off the charts in this thread. It’s unlikely that fight happens given the relationship between Crawford and Arum being not on good terms. Last I recall Crawford sent a message about wanting to be released from his contract and Arum insulting Crawford to the public. Crawford should have grown some cajones in fighting Porter but no he was too busy with his wishful thinking he would win the lottery in a fight with Pacquaio. Now that pacquaio has made his pick for his next opponent in Spence, we want to entertain the idea of a fight with Taylor and Crawford when Taylor hasn’t decided to move to 147 and have no idea how long it will be before he makes his welterweight debut. By the time it gets to that point, Crawford would already be older and moved on a different path. Porter has certainly moved on from Crawford. So who else can Crawford fight? Vergil Ortiz?

                  Taylor is really good fighter. He found the way to beat Prograis and Ramirez.

                    You're clearly an anus considering the shlt you come out with.

                    Delusional, delusional people.

                    You tried to rip Taylor off, but your corruption was held off. Taylor has to insist to never fight in the Asylum ever again.
