    So, Taylor and Prograis have never been as good as we wanted to believe

    They kinda beat everybody that was there to get beat at 140 by the time, but to be honest, these two were never very good.

    Teo Lopez beat Taylor easily when he moved to 140, Haney beat Prograis easily.

    Not the same level, it is obvious.

    could be argued that both were a bit better at the time they fought each other

      I've always thought they were both overrated but the media ran with the BS WBSs cup or whatever it was called and automatically called them "great".

        I think they were.

        Haney and Teofimo are just that much better.

        I won't give Taylor any leeway either. It is completely his fault that he chose to be spotty active since the Super 6 win. So, he deserved to lose.

        If he stayed active like Naoya for example. Who knows if Taylor would've still been sharp and beat Teofimo.

          Boxing 'fans' have short memories. It was not too long ago that Teo lost to Kamboses and was a 'bum' apparently.

          Only as good as your last fight lol

            Nah,

            Regis is just older & Devin is THAT good.

            Josh just stayed at 140 too long & Teo is THAT good
