The other question I had is about the location. Could you notice if that played a factor or not? Did it look like things may have been different if it was on netural ground or in America. Was JT intimidated by the crowd? Also, were the low blow calls legit? I saw there were alot of stoppage because of them and ref warnings. Did they seem like real low blows or was the ref overdoing it?
AA vs JT who was winning?

sounds like the story of Taylor's career. looks good for a while...and then falls apart when he gets hit/gasses. almost like Zab Judah.
I dunno, I never thought Taylor and Steward were that great a team. I think Taylor was at his best when he was trained by Pat Burns(?), who led him to his win over Joppy...my opinion, at least.its sounds like it was close until Taylors chin relized it was the 12 round and melfunctioned.
He should have stayed and actually LISTENED to Manny Stewart
Ive never understood why none of taylor's trainers were able to fix his right hand and/or force him to keep his hands up. he telegraphs that right hand so bad, like winds it up over his head. and hes always getting tagged when he lapses in concentration because he never keeps his hands up.
oh well.Comment

Ref constatly telling Jermain to keep them up. AA was getting hit to the body and kept complaining (Lying) about getting hit low. The ref took a point, Taylor stopped going to the body. Taylor faught one-handed, didn't use his right hand at all.The other question I had is about the location. Could you notice if that played a factor or not?

the crowd werent intimidating, got a bit noisy at times but not agessive at all if u know what i mean.The other question I had is about the location. Could you notice if that played a factor or not?

Taylor hit him 3 or 4 times below the belt, but not in the balls except one, it looked pretty sore!- he got a warning for that one and then deducted the next time he went below the belt. Other than that the ref wasnt a factor as there was close to zero clinching, however he didnt warn AA for rabbit punches(they weret hard, but still caught him once or twice so illegal none the less)
AA would've won in america, britain and the moon. Loaction, corwd and refs wouldnt've made a big enough difference, if any at all to how the fight panned out.Comment
