    I really don't. If he chooses to fight aggressively, he's done. Only if he fights smart does he have a chance. Arthur's defense is superb. Well, maybe not superb, but solid. And he moves faster than Taylor as well, Taylor is too muscular.

    Taylor will UD him easy if he lasts the distance.


    Taylor is the better boxer but his stamina problems are evident!!!

      It's about him outworking Abraham, not getting past his guard.

      If anyone is more muscular it's Abraham.

      What fights have you seen that makes you think Abraham is faster???

        You name them. I've seen quite a lot of Abraham's fights. I live in Europe, dig?

        And how can Taylor outwork him if he can't get past his guard??

          this fight is interesting..i thing early on taylor will out box him and cause arthur problems wiht his speed and reach..but by the mid rounds after taylor has worn down a bit from hitting mostly arthurs guard arthur will start throwing those left hooks and rock taylor a few times..this fight has several possibilities..i just wonder how much taylor really has left

                Sigh.....

                You tell me specifically because from the fight I've watch I don't see anything that'd lead me to believe he's faster.

                Outworking is not about landing punches. It's about throwing more and being the busier man. As long as he throws more and Abraham doesn't land a lot he can win rounds.

                  Taylor can outbox him and keep him at the end of the jab. Taylor just has to keep it going the whole fight

                    The above post should read fights, not fight. I can't edit my post.
