Comments Thread For: Josh Taylor: It Was a Massive Statement By Usyk, He Nearly Got The Stoppage

[deathofaclown]

Josh Taylor is funny and that would've been him if Prograis had Usyk's engine. You got outboxed and one of your eyes was absolutely battered until prograis gassed out.

Prograis isn't even an elite fighter.

Should've Would've Could've

Josh Taylor is an undefeated undisputed elite champ in the p4p list.

AJ is a B level plodder that got battered by fringe contender Andy Ruiz and was petrified of a cruiserweight

AJ should never be mentioned in the same breath as Josh Taylor who is levels and levels above him, it’s not even close. Worlds apart.

Prograis is much better fighter than Barrios.

Im honestly sick of this hypejob with his fake "regular" belt. There is only one champion at 140. That's what undisputed means. It's disrespectful that the undisputed champ knocked out Mario Barrios for all four belts, and Josh Taylor with his "regular" belt, who has not even fought Mario Barrios or Leo Santa Cruz or any of the other elite jr welterweights, pretends to be a champion.

(Yes Im joking a little )

In some sort of reversed parallel universe lol. Would be great to see those two fight though. But I think it might be 135 for Davis and 147 for Taylor. We can dream though lol.

The final round of Anthony Joshua vs. Oleksandr Usyk I, must of reminded Josh Taylor of when Regis Prograis gave him the beating of his life for 12 rounds. Like Anthony Joshua, Josh managed to escape a KO in the last few moments of the contest.

But credit to Oleksandr Usyk for being willing to give the former champion a rematch, whereas the 'Tart-Tomato' has been ducking Regis Prograis for the last two years now.

Interesting comparison considering that both had eye difficulties and couldn't see properly. So you pick a moment Taylor was at his most vulnerable with one eye shut. And yet no mention of the rounds he boxed with 2 good eyes. Taylor still won that fight by 7 rounds to 5 by the way, and 2 of Regis's rounds were with Taylor with 1 eye. Maybe if Josh tied one of his arms behind his back Regis might have got a draw lol. Keep trying though, you do make me laugh some.

Taylor won 7-5. Taylor fought Regis's fight and still outdone him. Taylor won his rounds clearly whilst, Regis's rounds were tight. And Taylor had an eye closed for the final three rounds and Regis still couldn't capitalize. So your assessment is all wrong, even about Regis gassing as he was still there chasing it until the final bell and being competitive. Respect to Regis because he's a tough dude and I like the guy a lot, but Josh was the clear winner.And if they rematch Josh wins easier as he'll box instead of brawl and it'll be wider imo. There were no elite fighters at 140 as they were all still rising, but there's one now. He's called Josh Taylor as he's beaten all the rest.

Truth right there.
