      I respectfully disagree with your comparison of Prograis current fighting abilities, and his fighting skills of years ago.
      Due to the fact that all boxers fighting skills diminish as the years go by, you start to lose your fighting spirit, then ultimately wear and tear sets in.
      We all have our own shelf life, and as we start getting closer to that expiration date, we have to learn how to convert our former stock, and trade into a new venture in order to remain relevant.
      Prograis was a much better fighter when he fought Taylor years ago, than he is today no question about that, and I wasn't ever a Prograis fan.

        Would like to see a KO by Teofimo if they fight again.

            Josh Taylor is a fraud. I could not wait until his fight with Teofimo took place so that this truth could be revealed. If Taylor is lucky enough to secure a rematch with Lopez, he might get knocked out. He was only good enough to make it to the elite level. He will win some, but lose most against the very best. He's like Regis Prograis.
            A fraud doesn't unify a division to undisputed status. Sure it wasn't the greatest era of 140 lbers, and Josh didn't easely beat other champs...

            But calling him a fraud is not fair.

            He sure wasn't as good as fans thought he was...

              He was completely outclassed. Based on what we saw Teo could go at like 70% and still beat him comfortably.

                I apply this to AJ or Wilder and their fans go bonkers. UK guys accuse me of hating AJ, like he's still the same, but Wilder is shot. Both of them are 5 years past it and several beatings on the other side of the hill. There is no fountain of yoith.

                  He unified the titles during a period in which his division was weak. His star was elevated to unreal levels. He rode this wave - whether he knew he belonged on top or not. He did not deserve his accolades.

                  He was never as good as having unified titles made him appear to be. While he didn't have me fooled, he pulled the wool over the eyes of many. Isn't this what fraudsters do?

                  Taylor will never reach the same heights as he did in the past. He's not that good and I do not believe he'll be that lucky twice.

                    Anthony Joshua psyche was fractured by Andy Ruiz, and Deontay Wilder was ruined by the three fights he had against Tyson Fury.
