I don't see Taylor getting past Abraham's defense

[Mr. Philadel]

Wait for my video of the public work out today (though a hefty 18 min).
It will show you something about both man: JT is the fastest guy above 147 I have ever seen live working out/boxing.
Abraham started slow, pot shotting the pads. But he made 3 rounds of work, getting faster every time. I have never seen him that fast with his combos for about 3-4 years...

Video should be on around 5 pm ET...

cool.....danke!!

Abrahams defense is what is gonna get him in trouble. Turtle shell..
Winky has an awesome turtle shell defense, BUT Winky also throws a lot of punches and jabs..

Authors jab is no where near as good as Winkys. And he doesnt throw as many punches as Winky. Also Winky brings A LOT OF PRESSURE, Author isnt a pressure fighter, he doesnt constantly come forward like Winky or as aggressive...

All Taylor has to do is box and move around while Author covers up. When Author begins to throw Jermain will be no where in site, hence nothing to hit..
I see a Taylor MD (judges will do everything in there power to give Author any close rounds)

after the fight remind me to come back to this thread to post ''should of gone to specsavers''

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.

I am officially changing my pick from ABraham to Taylor. I think Taylor can pull this one out

maybe, maybe not. but one thing to keep in mind is this is the best opponent abraham has faced. miranda was always overrated, he was nothing but a sloppy slugger. taylor has way, WAY better boxing skills than miranda and is extremely faster. and in abrahams last fight against oral he didnt look good. he was telegraphing his punches and looked sloppy. taylor will test arthurs chin and we will see just how good abraham is. but dont expect abrahams defense to be as good as it has been against the fighters he has been facing lately. i think abraham gets knocked out. not sure which round but i see abraham throwing lunging wide hooks and getting caught with a big uppercut from taylor and will be hurt badly and will get up but will be TKOed.
