Yeah I put in my vote right at the start, posted it too for the late KO, but it looks like we got some glory seekers out there.
And yeah already seen it. The undercard was on Spike. Great damn fight.Comment

Didn't have you pegged for a bad winner, but thats my shortcoming like saying Ohara was more naturally talented (although I don't know that that was necessarily disproven as one can be more talented yet come up short vs a superior strategy &/or more technically sound guy &/or bigger, stronger guy &/or a bunch of other things, but I'll not argue the point so much as bring it up) as I don't believe I said he was more technically sound & in fact acknowledged Taylor was superior in that regard.Eff Pandas bigdramashow so what were you saying about O'hara being the technically better and more skilled fighter?

WAR TAYLOR!!!!!!!!
Good W for Taylor as I said in the other thread. Was impressed by his defense most of all. I definitely expected Ohara to be able to land more punches on Taylor cuz I seen some very sub-Ohara opponents landing on Taylor in his previous 9 fights, but those guys weren't able to do anything with it cuz they were bs opponents. Another case of a quality prospect disregarding defense in early fights only to up their D game when they fight a better opponents.
I definitely wouldn't write off Ohara like I see seem doing already. I think he's a smart cat & has maximized his presence in the game already & will continue to do so at whatever level he eventually finds himself at throughout his time boxing.Comment

Taylor is a got damn beast.
Great fight that Taylor was winning. Davies so crude but was having success (commentators decided not to call any of his work), just couldnt deal with the speed accuracy and ring IQ of the much more experienced man.
Taylor vs Burns makes sense, but looks like they are trying to make Burns vs Crolla next which is a big money domestic scrap and all inhouse for Matchroom.
Prefer to see Taylor because it is more significant for the future.
War JT.Comment

I was pretty surprised you said O'hara was the more gifted fighter tbh, always had you down as super knowledgeable, dude is a robot, crazy tough though so props to him for getting up twice (even though he kinda quit)
I don't see him doing much of anything after that beatdown...above domestic level anyway. dude took a pounding.Comment
