          So because he fought everyone he had to he is great? That's not the question.. The question was who has he fought that gives him the rep of super six favorite.. Nice try though.

            maybe because he has the best resume out of everyone in the super six tournament?

                Actually I could easily argue Taylors resume is better. look what happened to him.

                    Nobody has said that he was 'great', but if he doesn't have the best resumé and isn't the favourite in the supersix, then please enlighten me by telling who is.
