    With Ward next, Taylor should continue

    Taylor is a far cry from the man that beat Bernard Hopkins, but I still think he should continue in this tournament. With Andre Ward next, he wouldn't be going up against a huge puncher or one that would be likely to hurt him.

    If Taylor can beat Ward, then fight Kessler and if you lose, retire. I'm sure this is what Dibella was thinking for Jermain. If you can win this tourney, all is forgotten. If not, hang em up.

    If the doctors clear him, then he can continue. But I don't know if he wants to. Can't blame him.

          Ward either stops him late or boxes the **** out of him easily.

            Ward will box JT's ass off all night.

            Taylor just doesn't have that extra something when he's in deep waters. Pavlik was the hardest puncher he'd faced to date and since then he got laid out by two other hard punchers. Plus, I think Ward's starting to apply some power to his punches from what I've seen, I wouldnt be surprised if JT got stopped in that fight too.

              Depends if his punch resistance is gone.

              If that's gone, everyone in the tournament could knock him out.

              A bit like Ricky Hatton. We could envisage Ricky getting knocked out by a lot of fighters. Jesus, some people even said Malignaggi might buzz him. It's going to be the same thing with JT.

                Taylors chin is ****ed up right now, that **** has Amir-Khan's chin written all over it and Taylor doesn't run like Khan does. If he fights Ward, will see Ward getting some KO round 1 over Taylor.

                  I told a guy on youtube last year that predicts fights that Ward would beat Taylor, he thought I was crazy, I told him its a no brainer. Taylor wont beat Ward.
