    Would Jermain Taylor have done BETTER against Ward?

    I think JT's experience would have made the fight a little more challenging for Andre. Also would've been a more credible Win....Green, in my opinion, brought nothing to the table, was NOT derserving of being invited in the Tourney, unless it was done to keep it 3 vs 3 (Americans vs the World)

    Anyways...I think JT would've made a more exciting fight....don't get me wrong...Ward is still my favorite to win the whole thing....but in all honesty, Green wasn't that much of a test for him...can't wait to see him go up against Abraham....would like to see him shut Froch up 1st.

      Without a doubt, Taylor has proven himself at the elite level, but has come up short recently. I think he fights competitively with Ward in the beginning and probably win some rounds, based on his solid jab and right hand. But I think mid rounds Ward takes over and wins a decision. I don't think he has the power or mentality to finish off Taylor.

        I pretty much see it the same way....JT would get that jab going (win maybe 3-4 rounds) and Ward would start taking over with his "inside game".

          Of course, Jermain Taylor is a real fighter. Allan Green is a joke.

            probably for a while but he would have got knocked out with about 13 seconds left in the last round.
