I like Taylor's reffing style. It is very much out of the way and you rarely see him stick out in the fight. He also reminds me of Gary Busey for some reason, lol. I can't say I recall any fights that he had a bad call on. I think I do recall the Acosta fight referenced in the article and was disappointed by the outcome, but didn't remember that Thomas worked that fight. Nor do I have a crazy problem with it after the fact. There is truth to be told that stopping a fight sooner than later obviously keeps a fighter healthy and lets them fight on another day. Regardless of something being stopped too soon or not. It's just the facts.
