Comments Thread For: Josh Taylor: I Think Moving Up is Probably The Wisest Option, I Can Fight Catterall Later On

[Boxing 112]

Can see why he wants to go up, Them 147 belts likely getting vacated looking forward to it. Bud and Spence we finally got and we now know the winner time for them both to go upto 154 and let the 147 division open up and us see some of these other match ups hopefully the next lot of champs fight more often in that division

I knew Taylor wasn't really like that when he went undisputed and decided to just sit on his titles and let them start taking them from him instead of moving up and calling out Spence or Crawford for a title shot. He ain't even move up and start fighting contenders like Ennis , Ortiz or Stanionis. He's the first fighter of this era or maybe any era to put a black eye on being a undisputed champion

I disagree about black eye on being undisputed. There have been weaker roads to undisputed than his. And after he won undisputed he vacated first cause he had his wedding than injury. And a yr out after catterall he still went straight into teo fight. Rather more champs vacate if theyre not planning to fight soon look at Jermall holding his belt hostage, crazy that he has still not been stripped especially as its not even due to a physical injury.
I don't rate catterall highly that was his 1 decent night like kambosos teo. That being said i always rated teo highly i was one of the few here who consistently picked teo to win Taylor, even after kambosos loss, and even when the fight was made this yr and most picked against him ive always said Teo was going to win Taylor.
