Will Taylor be able to rebound from his loss? He sounds really low in confidence now

B-Hop has excellent conditioning and I didn't expect Jermain Taylor to outlast Bernard even with the age difference. I don't believe it is Jermain's time to be Undisputed Middleweight champion and B-Hop will prove that in the rematch. He will exploit Jermain's condiditioning and if you say that Jermain is going to come back with better conditioning then Bernard Hopkins you have to be kidding me. Yes, he'll come back with better conditioning but B-Hop will still be able to exploit the difference in between the two. He start sooner and that will make Jermain work harder in the beginning of the fight and that will gas Jermain faster. Then B-Hop will shine in the later rounds like he did in their first fight and win.

Wow, so you basically took my point and took it to a whole new level of technicality...

I was bitching because people were questioning Taylor's conditioning... I said it had less to do with conditioning than inexperience, and it would be a shock if he stood and ****** with Hopkins for 12 rounds.

Wow...

Understood & your probably right on. We'll see what changes both fighters make in the next one.

Agreed.

I think everyone is jumping to the conclusion that because Hopkins took over late in the fight, that he could ahve done it anytime he wanted. If so, why didn't he? He knew the magnitude of this fight.

Anyways, I think Team Taylor will review this fight to death, come up with the appropriate adjustments, and the fight will be much more action-packed and intense than this was.

Going 12 rounds against a bum vs. going 12 against the best middle of this decade is completely different. Now that Taylor has this experience and some confidence under his belt, the next fight should be a war from start to finish.
