Boxing Video: Jermain Taylor "Abraham is Ordinary"
Thomas Schlabe catches up with Jermain Taylor and his trainer Ozell Nelson to discuss the upcoming super middleweight clash with Arthur Abraham, training camp, fight strategy and more.

Whoa. So Taylor had to lose 26 lbs in the last 3 weeks before fighting Carl Froch. That's just too much. Now I can understand much better why Taylor had this diet and pre-camp camp. It was necessary.
It's hard to understand that Taylor was a middleweight not long ago.
To me, it's not really disrespect Jermain is showing. It's more that he lacks confidence and want to talk himself into believing Abraham isn't as good as the fighters he has fought so it should be natural that he beat him. Maybe he really got advise to do this by a sports psychologist...either way, it was nice to talk to camp Taylor...

Tom I don't think he disrespected AA in any way. He was basically saying that since he's fought the guys the interviewer (you) mentioned he couldn't see AA as something special. I mean compared to Hopkins, Pavlik, Winky etc. AA hasn't got anything to elevate himself above those guys.
