I don't understand why people are up in arms about Tayor v Wright

[restless_438]

I don't see Taylor as in his prime yet. He's still a largely unschooled fighter. Were I his management, I would have opted for a few more fights against escalating opposition prior to throwing him in against Hopkins.
I also believe that if he goes against Winky next, he will likely lose because he's not ready to fight elite fighters yet.

well, then that's Taylor's fault! If you're gonna hold the titles and proclaim you are the champion, YOU'RE GONNA ACT LIKE IT. End of story.

Well, not only hasn't he earned it in the 1st place, Winky is the undisputed #1 contender. It's quite simple really, fight Winky or be labelled as a *****.

Thomas Tate, one of the most feared middleweights? I don't think so. Joe Lipsey was an undefeated bright contender, Hopkins finished his career. Glen Johnson was another good one, completely dominated and stopped the man that would become the lightheavy weight champ.

I hear you man, but you can't put Taylor anywhere near those guys yet.

its time for both fighters to get what they deserve. winky deserves a title shot and taylor deserves a good sound beating.

Where are you Super_Lighweight? You gave me bad karma for saying this in another thread. Now that you have the actual records in front of you, you don't care to comment?

man, Super Lightweight is like that. he always gives bad karma if you say what you think would happen. don't ever suggest to him that Roy could lose or Toney has a chance of losing to Rahman, or you'll get bad K up the ass. dude's a complete ***** when it comes to arguing and the biggest Roy nuthugger you'll ever meet. I got so much satisfaction out of seeing Roy lose to Tarver yet again just because of that guy alone.

The Taylor haters I really don't understand. What has the kid ever done to make anybody hate him? Unlike Hopkins who ducked great competition for years and runs at the mouth like none other and cries when he loses, Taylor fought the #1 p4p guy twice in one year, beat him twice, never bragged about it, and he's never LOST. He's nowhere near as good as he's going to get, and he's beat Hopkins TWICE in 6 months!! The kid is amazing. I think everybody that hates him just lost a lot of money on Hopkins. Instead of hating themselves for being complete idiots and picking Hopkins, they hate on the kid that holds TWO victories over B-Hop. Seriously, how any of you picked Hopkins to win the 2nd fight is beyond me. You should all kick your own asses for being morons instead of hating on Taylor for having the biggest year in boxing anybody could have.
