Hadn't seen much of Taylor until the Davies fight, he is impressive. Vazquez is washed up and moving up in weight, Taylor wins a wide decision in an ugly fight

Pretty much what I see. Vazquez is a wrestler and mauls better than he punches. Can't see him muscling younger and bigger guys at home. He'll make it ugly at best.

Bookies don't even have this one close Taylor 1/33 Vazquez 10/1, bit surprised.

This is a real tough test. I guess Taylors people are hoping Vazquez is shot because if he isn't, his size and strength will cause Taylor all sorts of problems.

A good step up, he would definitely learn a lot from this fight. I could see a Salido/Lomachenko scenario here.

Why?
Terrible idea.

Not sure what condition Vasquez is in these days but I reckon its really good development fight.

Maybe it wont be entertaining but Taylor should learn a lot vs MV.

If he wins convincingly or even stops him then it sends a hell of a message

Even if JT wins he's very likely going to look horrible in the process. It'll give fighters an excuse to duck him.

If Vasquez wins he gets robbed . If its close (good chance) they'll shout robbery.
I just don't think the timing is right. Vasquez isn't a guy you fight unless you have no choice he's almost impossible to look good against. High risk, no reward really.
