Yeah, I need to search my memory to recall a fighter whose career fell off as precipitously as Josh Taylor's has. Two years ago he was arguably a Top 6-7 P4P guy with all the ***elry and some of the best wins in the sport, and now he looks completely shot to bits and learning to walk again. Catterall didn't look so great in his last fight either, but he seems to be the smart money to win that rematch easily if they ever do square off again.

Agreed. Jack massively wasted his momentum after that Taylor “loss”. Josh messed him about with the delays and stuff but Jack just did nothing. Sat there waiting for an opportunity rather than creating one. I think it’s a travesty if he never wins a world title, but I can’t say it looks likely, he’s 30 now and he’s chasing paydays rather than titles.
He should have went that route.
this Taylor fight, dunno, it's not a fight I'd go massively out of my way to watch either. Not that I am arbiter of boxing opinion but if I'm not massively interested I can't imagine many people being so...maybe Scots like you say.
I think a lot of us here have expressed similar opinions.
The fight seems dead on its arse. You'd watch it on tele sort of thing but you wouldn't put of plans.
There was a time when this had real momentum.
They f.ucked it.Comment

Lopez didn't look so hot between Lomachenko and Taylor. He was about as written off as any young fighter in recent years.I need to search my memory to recall a fighter whose career fell off as precipitously as Josh Taylor's has.
