    He beat Ramirez clean I have no issue with that it wasn't a complete beatdown though. I also used to think highly of Taylor and I respect his skillset but he's a drunk cokehead with anger issues and he knows he lost that Catterall fight.
    He beat Prograis clearly. He beat Ramirez even more so. People go on about the Catterall cards, but forget had he not got those knock-downs against Ramirez, he would have been stiffed. That was definitely wider than 6 rounds each. But nobody mentions that. The Catterall fight was razor thin. I scored it a draw. Catterall done very little for the majority of the 2nd half of the fight, and yet people see him winning by a huge margin? Because he maybe lands the best shot in a round that's all people want to remember. One good punch doesn't win a round if the other guy lands more, even if they're lighter shots. I see these articles referring to Catteralls tricky style. It's not tricky at all. Taylors timing was woeful, and Catterall still couldn't rip the belts from him. If Taylor sorts his form out, he'll show how basic he is.

      I was going to respond more in depth but then I saw you put the Catterall fight was razor close. Catterall beat Taylor more decisively than Taylor beat Prograis and Ramirez so there's no point in discussing anything. Haha did very little in the 2nd half yet he dropped him in the 8th round and stunned him numerous times, Taylor looked like garbage too much ******* during his off time. 9 out of 10 will agree that Taylor lost so you can go ahead an be the unique 1 who thinks otherwise.

          It was a very close fight anyway. I'm happy with Josh attitude towards the rematch.

            Do you know he was taking *******? Because unless you have proof, that comment is uncalled for. As much as I'd like to take credit for being unique, clearly I'm not. Other posts in this thread prove that. And it's all about opinions. It was a close fight. I had it a draw. That's my opinion. Your entitled to yours. Even if most do feel Catterall won, the level of criticism and personal abuse against Taylor and his family is beyond disgusting. Your the first I've seen though suggesting he was on *******. So perhaps your unique. Good day to you sir. Stay safe.

              Lol when did I say anything about Taylors family? I said he's a drunk cokehead and if anything the only one shooting personal abuse is Taylor himself.

              Super-lightweight champion Josh Taylor says he is "ashamed" and will take time off to reflect on his actions.


              Even if he pleaded not guilty doesn't mean he didn't have it or he wasn't around it, Scotland has a high ******* consumption it's a known fact and he likes to go out and drink that **** goes hand and hand.

              That's ok if you had it a draw you are entitled to your opinion but you are unique in that sense because you are literally the only person who has said that in this thread.

                  I'm from Scotland. I'm aware of the ******* consumption in this country. Are we all being tarred with the same brush now? Lol. Is it just our problem. I'm pretty sure ******* hit the streets of America before it ever washed up on our shores. Your being a little silly now lol. I may be unique with the draw to be fair. But I didn't have Taylor winning. Some others did. And from this forum also. And if you were misled I apologize, but I wasn't accusing you of the personal abuse. I was meaning, in general. It's been dreadful on twitter, including personal abuse against his fiance and sister. Taylors a big boy. He can handle it. But his family don't deserve it.

                    Doesn't matter because the US doesn't provide ******* to Scotland so not our problem that comes from the South Americans. I never said all Scottish do *******, just the ones who come out on articles stating he was in possession but plead not guilty to on the night he got drunk and racially abused an Asian.

                    He's a good boxer but not a good person, and I don't agree with the backlash his family received as it was him who caused it all, but nowadays with social media there are no rules and if you do something ****ed up you and everyone you associate with are going to get dragged down for a bit until the next big scandal makes them forget all about it.

                      Lol your referring back to a night that happened before his last 3 fights. So has he been coked up for his last 3 fights? You do seem to be backtracking a little and now focusing on him not being a good guy. That's your angle. Some may agree with you, many will not. Ok, so now I'd like you to explain to me, how exactly he caused the backlash he and his family received on social media. I'm baffled by that statement, but I am happy to be enlightened.
