I agree, he punches like he is trying to punch through them every time. Might work for 6 or so rds but in the later rds, he is too tired to punch when it counts.
He never really sets up punches just tries to beat the other guy down; it might work for some guys but he is not one of them.

Lol...that's one of many reasons.

Did you see Henry Crawford against Antwoine Smith about two weeks ago. That's a case of a dude who gasses out because he put too much on his punches way too early in a fight. Jermain does a little bit of that too.

Yea I agree..Miguel Cotto seems to have the same problem sometimes..

But when he had Pavlik in trouble..he punched himself out going for the KO..and he did the same against Froch..

I hope he's learned from that mistake and doesn't punch himself out against Abraham..cuz that defense won't be broken..so he better not put to much emphasis on trying to get through and pick his shots carefully..

According to Jermain Taylor he gasses because he cuts a drastic amount of weight too quickly which zaps alot of energy from him. Hence he's hired a conditioning coach and a nutritionist.

I have noticed that too, he seems fidgety all the time, like he never really settles in to the fight.
