Taylor is SHOT to peices. Abraham's win means very little.

    Taylor is done. But AA got the KO. It was the 12th meaning Taylor had 11 rounds to show us something and he failed to do that. But AA toughest fights are ahead.

      No, he isn't, but it was still a good win for AA. You can only fight who is in front of you. Taylor fought well, IMHO; he was always likely to be decisioned but he was always in the contest - the KO was a real shame, particularly as it looks like ending his career. He had obviously worked hard on his stamina following the Froch fight and IMHO would have beaten either Froch or Dirrell had he been fighting them on the night.

      AA was very impressive, and anyone writing off the win as meaningless because JT isn't the fighter he once was is making a big mistake.

        It was a good win, Taylor is a skilled boxer and he didn't gas out. If he would have stayed on his feet a few seconds more the fight could have gone either way. It was a good win for Abraham.

          exactly, prime for prime, JT all the way, it wont be even close.
