      If Taylor's successful against Catterall & it is an if, then I'd prefer to see him stay @ 140Lb & fight Zepeda or even Teofimo. Crawford needs to push fot the Spence fight or move to light middle & challenge the Charlo/Castano winner.

A P4P elite boxer should be able to compete with men at higher weights, but I dont believe that Josh Taylor could even beat a Andre Berto at 147, or even a rising prospect like Blair 'The Flair' Cobbs.

        But I bet you that Teofimo Lopez would go on to 140 and win titles and even beat the 'Tart-Tomato' if given the chance, because thats what REAL P4P talent does. Carl 'Cobra' Froch knows that Josh Taylor is absolutely overrated, Terence Crawford would thrash Josh Taylor worse than Andre Ward did Carl Froch in the Super-Six.
        Yeah Elie talking out your ass AGAIN. Kambosis gave your boy a lesson and how would he deal with TTT? Berto is from yesteryear great analogy

          Peter, can Josh Taylor beat Conor Benn at 147? What about Amir Khan? or a Kell Brook? I give a healthy Teofimo Lopez a better chance than the 'Tart-Tomato' Josh Taylor over all the aforementioned welterweights.

            Based on Lopez last fight because he looked awful against Kambosos

              Well, medical reports have explained Teofimo's life and death battle with George Kambosos, but I have yet to read any proof that Josh Taylor really had a knee-injury a few weeks ago. I personally believe Josh Taylor faked it too further rust Jack Catterall, who is already coming in to face Taylor after the biggest layoff in his entire career.

                Im not a huge fan of Josh Taylor either but beating Prograis has to count for something. Prograis beats Teo if they ever fought also. Josh is a quality fighter and i actually believe he beats everyone baring Crawford, Spence and ennis at 147(assuming he can absorb getting hit by bigger guys)

                    Agreed. He needs to cherrypick those small 135lbers like how he's cherrypicking Caterall once they want to move up in 140.

                      I want to get this straight: Taylor beat all the best guys in his division and now gets to Caterall, his mandatory who stepped aside to let Taylor have the shot at undisputed, and it's a cherry pick?

                      The undisputed champ can't be a cherry picker if he's staying in his own division; he's fought all the best fighters at his weight.
