    Is it just me or is Katie Taylor terrible?

    I see she has this huge fight lined up.

    I remember hearing how Taylor was this amazing amateur and had unbelievable boxing skills.

    I've seen her fight loads of times on AJ unddrcards and I've literally never once been impressed.

    Her opposition is usually supposedly levels below her in skills and pedigree but Taylor always ends up in a toe to toe struggle and usually just barely wins due to superior conditioning.

    You see the odd flash of skill here and there but for the most part it's always to toe toe, heads down, swinging away with Taylor just barely getting the better of it.

    For someone with such pedigree and supposedly such vast skill why does she never look in charge in a fight?

    Yeah she's terrible to be honest.

    If he's supposedly the best women's boxing has to offer then I'll pass.

              Yeah it's silly that some people think she's better than Claressa Shields.

                She’s no Queen Claressa but I respect her hustle. She fights her ass off for being so limited.

                My top 5 Women’s P4P list

                1) Queen
                2) Serrano
                3) McCaskill
                4) Taylor
                5) Mayer

                  Isn't a women's P4P list basically just "as many female boxers as you can name" ?
