The whold fight did an 180, Taylor stopped throwing to the body cause of that, he stopped throwing combinations because of that, and his whole confidence went out the window... I'm not trying to take anything away from Abraham though
      Taylor CLEARLY hit him in the bollocks very low early on and again on at least 2 other occasions went well below the belt. He couldn't get past Abraham's elbows so started punching lower.

      Showtime commentators even pointed out 1 the ref missed.

        Because he punches like a Mule. I've been telling all you guys since AA fought Ikeke that he was a solid fighter. All you guys told me I don't understand boxing and that AA was just another protected fighter. The guy is a smart fighter with brute strengh and a very solid defence. Pretty hard to beat. Personally I think Dirrell will give him problems but I say he walks through Froch.

          Guys with his build can't throw punches consistantly because they tire fast. He's a decent counter puncher aswell. I think he breaks guys down with his defence. Once he sees a guy is broken down he goes for the kill will that strength that he has. If it does'nt wok he will back pedal and walk you into something.

            Jermaine Taylor has what you would call a glass jaw now. This is something that I wonder if Dibella knew all along. And he matched him up with powder puff punchers like Wright, Ouma, and Spinks at the time he was undefeated. Once he lost to Pavlik, Dibella had less to lose by throwing him to the wolves. I pray for Taylor's health though and hope his condition is not too serious.

              are you ****in kidding me man? I'm the biggest Taylor fan on this board and I only gave him four rounds, one of which was debatable. Taylor won 1, 2, 4 and 11 on my card. He was being pummeled most rounds, just flicking his jab and trying to survive rather than win. JT needs to retire. He has no heart and never did in my book. And like I said, I'm a fan. But enough is enough.

                Abraham was not doing ****.


                Anyways, Taylor laid out the blue print to beat Abraham.

                Watch how Ward, Dirrel and kessler schools his ass.

                Hell KO Froch though!!!!
                JT was behind on all the cards when he got KO'd.

                  My dad kept running his mouth during the aftermath of the fight, and as a result, I thought they said that it was Abraham behind on all the cards.

                    Anyone lasting 12 rounds (or most of 12 rounds) with Pavlik, Froch, and Abraham does NOT have a glass jaw. Those guys have ridiculous KO percentages, and will stop anyone given the chance.

                    The shot that AA hit Taylor with would've KO'd anyone who, like Taylor, didn't see it coming.

                      Maybe Taylor didn't have poor punch resistance to begin with. But he sure does now after going through all that.
