    Jermain to set Guinness Record...

    ...for having fought 3 times for an abc belt in his last 4 fights without having won one of them???

    Taylor - Froch (WBC)

    Taylor - Abraham

    Taylor - Ward (WBA)

    Taylor - Kessler (WBC?)

    possible feat for the very future (if he continues with the tourney)...

        I agree that the dude is a skilled boxer and good. He isn't great but did the most he could with his stamina issues. He's also a really nice guy and I kinda want him to actually do well now.

            Wayne McCullough lost 3 alphabet title fights in the span of four fights:

            Harrison (WBO)
            Juarez (non-title)
            Larios (WBC)
            Larios (WBC)

            He also challenged unsuccesfully for an alphabet title 7 times in a row (non-title fights in between). (Zaragoza, Hamed, Morales, Harrison, Juarez, Larios x2)

              Who's to say he doesn't win against Ward? I would be surprised if he did, but then again, there have been much bigger upsets in boxing..

                I like him too, but can he recover from these 2 ko's and still be succesfull?

                  Interesting observation.

                    I doubt it. Boxing is a mental thing and Ward's very accurate and could get a TKO. However Froch and Abraham hit quite hard.

                    When I do small mistakes at work or with my girl, I can think about it a lot and sometimes it can play on my mind, Imagine being a boxer and getting KTFO twice in the last 20 seconds of round 12. He better do a Cotto if he makes it to 12 VS Ward lol.

                    He may be done, but he has a chance to beat Ward. If he uses all his skills and counters him well.
