Comments Thread For: Josh Taylor Overcomes Knockdown, Edges Jack Catterall With Razor-Close Split Decision

It wasnt even close Catterall won at least 6 rounds clearly and got a knockdown, almost every other round could have been scored either way not one single round was definately a Taylor round. Absolute robbery for me.

Extremely similar robbery to kovalev vs ward first fight, absolutely disgusting

The ref and the judges should not be involved in the sport again. Catterall was robbed and I was one of the people who wrote him off.

Absolute fix. Taylor lost that clearly. If I heard correctly was that Ian john Lewis judging. Please say it wasn't because he's so bent.

114-111 Catterall ? ... Could be .... 114-111 Taylor ? .... Nope, never, nada ...

awful robbery, catterall won that fight, taylo took a nice beating. he won't do shit at 147.

[Damn Wicked]

stylistic clash, that's all. the ref should have been smart. step in, but the warnings and point deductions killed the fight.

Yes, stylistically they didn’t match up well, but Cateral was trying to stop the inside fighting by holding excessively. He looked like he was just trying to spoil most of the fight. The ref halted the action many times when Taylor was putting the pressure on Cat. That gave a lot of recovery time for him.

Catterall gave the fight away after round 8

He put taylor on his arse so didn't matter if he lost the 7-12 he was a round ahead because if the knockdown

[KING S.O.G]

I had 114-111 for Jack, but he did absolutely nothing in the last 4 round

Taylor vs Teo, make it happen!
