Originally posted by Eastcoast View PostNo it doesn't, I just appreciate the irony. He certainly doesn't deserve that kind of success given the heel he's made himself into, but he is a capable fighter. And as I've mentioned before, Peter was initially excited to take the Roc Nations offer, it was Haymon who made him turn it down. Quillin's a fighter, not a PR person, he said lots of stupid & embarrassing shit, but it doesn't mean he can't fight.
I've rewatched his fights with Rosado & N'Dam, people give him crap but he won the majority of those two fights. Even without the knock downs I thought he was edging N'Dam. And he was clearly beating Rosado for the first half of their fight before it became a give-n-take fight. Michael Woods said he's hearing Jacobs will be next, Danny's not that good and chinny. Plus Haymon's been keeping Jacobs as inactive as Quillin, probably for that reason.
I don't think highly of Jacobs either, but he has size/power/reach that Quillin has yet to show he can deal with.Last edited by kiaba360; 01-03-2015, 04:16 PM.

Originally posted by kiaba360 View PostN'Dam lost, but that was the first time where I started doubting Quillin's skill/talent/potential. N'Dam showed that Quillin isn't fleet-footed, has stamina issues and isn't a good finisher. When you knock your opponent down SIX times and I walk away being more impressed with N'Dam, you know something didn't go right. Every judge had it 115-107, meaning that N'Dam won every round he didn't get KD in. I'm not sure if he beats N'Dam in a rematch. I agree that he beat Rosado, but once again, he left me unsatisfied with his performance. Rosado had a bit too much success in his 3rd fight @MW against someone that was supposed to be a top MW. Rosado showed that PQ might not be able to take it as well as he can dish it out.

Doesn't matter who Taylor fights next. It'll be both terrible and depressing no matter who he fights. Taylor earned his belt fair and square and he has to fight someone. And someone has to end his bad joke of a reign. Might as well be Mora, who is no better or worst than than most of the top 10 middleweights.Last edited by DoktorSleepless; 01-03-2015, 05:16 PM.

Besides we all know the winner of this fight will face Quillin or Jacobs and the winner of that fight will face Quillin or Jacobs for the ultimate Al Haymon 160 pound showdown. This belt isn't going anywhere for a long time.
