Dirrell was the first to beat Arthur Abraham. And he should have been the first to beat Carl Froch in my opinion.

His resume speaks for itself.

Looking at this photo, it's hard to believe Taylor weighed in at 8 lbs below Dirrell.



Zab Judah came back at 140 and won a few fights when everyone doubted him, let's hope Taylor can do one better when he drops back down in weight by making a splash and not having a mental collapse whenever he's in his first big fight. He's been training off and on since July (his original comeback was planned for August), and it looks like he's taking it seriously. All that remains to be seen is how well he can take a punch, unless he has learned to avoid them.

I'm not even gonna comment on the 'stache or the sneer, but just look at how freakishly short Nicklow's arms are.

I'll admit, when Taylor was on top I wasn't a fan & knew he would eventually get exposed. However, now that he is on the other end of the stick, I'm actually rooting for the guy. I'm typically a fan of the underdog and I hope Taylor can make a successful comeback. His fights will always be interesting, because you know that chin is "touchable", so there will always be the chance for a KO. Good luck JT, your gonna need it in this stacked division.

Hope Jermain does well..as well as Andre...

Been a fan of Jermain's since the Hopkins fights...he has his flaws but he's fought everyone and never backed down from a challenge...

Is this because he beat Hopkins twice??? LOL nah im just playin bro, i was rooting for Hopkins, but yeah for sure i hope he makes a good comeback, he's a very likable guy in interviews, its hard not to like him, but yeah 'chin' suspect.

Taylor looks really good, better than he looked at SMW.
