        am i being blindingly obvious by saying that saying taylor is definately the worst seeing as he's lost all 3 fights against the two of them?

        sorry but excuses about stamina don't wash. fights last for 12 rounds, if you get knocked out in the 12th it means your opponent has took all you can give without giving up and put you on the floor to show who's boss

        taylor is fortunate in the fact that he's one of the few fighters on earth with the style to beat b-hop which has given him more kudos and ratings than he deserves.

        calzaghe would have literally dismantled him

          you mean he has the judges to beat hopkins

          too bad calzaghe would never prove he can dismantle taylor so all you have is fantasy matchups to rely on.

            well yeah, i admit it's a fantasy because they never fought but his biggest wins have all been tight points decisions and he's been stopped twice. TWICE. That ain't no fluke.

            He's a good fighter I admit but he's not great. He's fought pavlik twice and lost twice and was beating froch until getting knocked the **** out in the most exciting and demorilising way possible. If he had ****ed froch up so much how was froch able to rally and produce such a sweet 12th round?

              I thought the point of fighting was to prove who is the better fighter, im pretty sure if you lose to someone then that means they were better then you. Now if you want to discuss power vs agility/technical skill thats a different question.

                Taylor lost the first fight vs b-hop and he lost that fight vs winky. Judges gave him some breaks and now i dont like the guy.

                  Although Ko'ed by Pavlik and Froch, both losses could have been a product of stamina which most would agree. But overall talent and skill it's def Taylor.

                  Taylor vs Pavlik II was closer than people think.

                  Pavlik and Froch both have Taylor's weakness, both are fighters with the combination of Stamina, power and chin.
                  I agree with this.

                    Taylor is the biggest waste of talent in boxing today. He could have been great but never lived up to his potential. That's why he lost to two bums.

                      Pavlik is the best. Taylor is the sharper and better all around boxer, but both Pavlik and Froch walked away the winners against him.

                      Pavlik crushed his will and heart.
                      You clearly don't know what heart references to in boxing. Maybe you meant to say stamina or endurance.
