I enjoyed the Ramirez Taylor fight. Was a competitive matchup from the build up, but with Top Rank and Taylor having spoken of Crawford as a potential future matchup I didn’t think much of this fight in that winner, Top Rank would match with Crawford, and they don’t beat Bud.
I had Ramirez 3-4 rounds in the first half for aggression and precise body shots over jabs and occasional pots, that’s my preference. It just looked better from the TWO Champs in unification. Second half, Ramirez had 1-2 rounds for pressing the gas and landing occasionally, but Taylor went in higher defensive gear and better compubox. For this margin of error I gave Ramirez 4 rounds the whole fight. It means the knockdowns made the significant difference.
With all that being said, Taylor should acknowledge all that and not make headlines about scoring, it’s just gay shet reppin the Scotts. This is why Crawford is going to show no doubt how to beat Taylor because of levels. keep it kosher, don’t cry like BJS kids
I tend to agree with that assumption. Boxer can NEVER make excuses.
Ramirez won 1 clear round the whole fight, the 3rd round, all the other competitive rounds in the fight, you could give him 3 or 4 rounds, so Taylor has every right to complain how corrupt judges and referees.
The outcome of Crawford vs Taylor depends on where the fight happens. If it happens over here, Crawford loses his 0. If it happens in the US, as we know, Taylor needs to leave Crawford unconscious to win, even then there's a chance they might rob him as we saw last weekend where Bayless waited for Ramirez to regain full conscious before allowing the fight to continue.
I tend to agree with this. Taylor is good enough and tough enough to take a draw or better on UK cards.
