    Cong**** to Jermain Taylor, the CHAMP!

    First off I just wanted to say congratulations to Jermain Taylor and all of his fans. Most people said it could not be done, but he did it.

    I scored the fight 115-113 for Taylor. This fight was not controversial to me at all. Honestly, it's quite clear what happenend.

    Hopkins lost the majority of the first 9 rounds. He swept the final three. So yes, it is fresh in the minds of most that Hopkins ended the fight on a stronger note, but that does not add up to a points victory.

    Taylor won more rounds than Hopkins in my book. And also in Harold Letterman's book and two of the three judges books as well.

    The fact that a 23-fight, four year , green rookie was able to hang with Hopkins and take a points decision from him really confirms my su****ion about his overblown 20 title defenses against mostly inferior, class c fighters.

    Regardless, JT is to be commended for winning a fight on pure athelticism alone because lord knows the kid didn't have the experience to fall back on.

    When Hopkins attempted to impose his will, JT refused to give up. He refused to fold and he answered just about every Hopkins rally.

    Again, props to the new middleweight KING, Jermain "Bad Intentions" Taylor!!

      as The_Truth says, read the article on the main page. it says it all.

      Taylor did not win the fight and Hopkins should still be the champ.

        You are correct. Good post. these whiney ass hopkins fans make me laugh. He's still an all time great Middleweight but not even in the discussion for all time p4p. The man was alway to cowardly to step outside his comfort zone and fight a guy bigger or stronger the way all the alltime p4p guys did. Most of his fights were infact against blown up welters. I'm glad to see him knocked off his high horse and if there is a rematch it won't even ber this close.

          The guy that wrote the article is either blind or he's an nut-hugger of Hopkins like yourself. Taylor clearly won & he's a class act, he's not a little ***** like Hopkins.

                  It was funny when I used it, unfortunately though, it isn't funny when you used it. Owned.

                  I rate these posts 5 out of 10 on the troll o meter.
