    hmm

    honestly, at this point i think Wright would have an easier time with Taylor than he did with Trinidad. That's no shot personally against Taylor, that's just an opinion.

    edit: before Taylor huggers go on a tyraid here, i think it Taylor would be some-what game, but it would not be a close fight, it'd be very similar to Wright/Trinidad and i think Taylor wants to make the fight cause Taylor has the heart of a real champion, but it wouldn't surprise if HBO doesn't let him make it.
    No. Taylor is not one-dimensional like Tito. Not only that, but Taylor is significantly bigger than Wright. I like Wright. He's a cool guy and a nice fighter. But to say Wright would beat Taylor as easily as he did Tito is assinine. Taylor can at least do better than a faded Mosley did.

      you know, as im sitting here thinking about it, you're probably right. I think Taylor would do better than Trinidad or Mostley, but i still feel its a given Wright victory. I wouldn't say Taylor would be really dominated or anything though.

        Jermain Taylor can get the decision over Wright, just like he did with Hopkins. He lost but still won. All he has to do is keep the fight close and he will get the W, because the judges love him

          I would bet loser leaves forum for Wright vs Taylor. X was/is a better defensive fighter then Wright ,and Taylor was still able to land his jabs, and some rights.Wright would get his ass beat by Taylor. Please believe that

              Think about this one for a minute. Taylor just beat the best boxer at Middleweight. The brawlers, boxers, and counter punchers at middleweight would suffer the same fate. Even if you did not have Taylor beating Hopkins either of the two fights (wow), who do you see beating him? Wright, no because Hopkins is a better boxer, harder to hit, and Wright has not had a KO since 2002. Wright hit Mosley with his best shots both fights, and Mosley never went down, let alone not even hurt (through Mosley was the smaller fighter).

              Taylor will walk right through Ronald's jabs and rights and keep pumping out his own punishment to Ronald. If you tell me Wright's defense is too good for JT, well go watch Vargas get through like he did with the body work and jab. Taylor's jab is better then Wright's and will be the key to opening up the rest of JT's attack throughout the fight. I mention Winky only because he is the biggest threat to Taylor, but I will bet once again Taylor comes out the winner.

              The only way Ronald gets the win is of course through a Decision. There is no way he can expect to do that ,and not get KO'ed , or decisioned himself. If X , the best middleweight of the past 15 years can not do it, neither will Winky.
              this is all biased bull****.

              walk right thru ronald's jabs? the same way he walked thru hopkins punches?

              u make JT out to be the aggressor in the fight when in fact hes just a cautious *****.

                Good call.

                Picture in your mind what Taylor would do to Mosley...that would be one UGLY fight. Mosley would get his ass crushed. Taylor-Wright is not a boring fight to me on another note. Wright always comes forward and I enjoy his fights. How exciting have Shane Mosley fights been in the last 3 years that weren't vs Wright? Ask yourselves that, people. How entertaining and forceful was Taylor vs anyone not named Hopkins? I think everyone is underestimating how decent a fight Taylor-Wright can be.

                  imo hopkins ringmanship dictated boring fights with taylor and others.

                  he's got to work on ****ing his right and leaving his left down.

                  he could fight winky with a different game plan.

                    Please X lovers enough is enough really. Hide and watch IF Winky steps up and faces Taylor what happens. It will be as I predicted for BOTH of the X fights ,and thats another Taylor victory.Trying to play defense with Taylor gets you on the losing side of the decison, just ask X. Oh and please quit crying robbery, Enough already. ALL THREE HAD IT THE SAME

                      i think you're talking about Taylor right? that's the move i was talking about, jerking his right arm back everytime he throws a jab. looks like he's dancing (wish i had a slow-mo clip)



                      kevvy1979, talk about biased, i look at your profile, you're FROM ARKANSAS!! lol j/k everyone is still entitled to their opinions..
