Be very surprised if either scottish fight gets a win over to very solid fighters one too old and other is too green

I don't think it would be competitive but I kind of want to see it for the atmosphere alone

He'd make bank and get a solid win. I don't see the negative to taking the bout.

I think Taylor is the goods. Burns however is washed up now probably not a competitive fight for anybody.

From what I've seen of Josh Taylor so far he has the goods to be a future world champion. Power speed and footwork all there.

Taylor is still green. I see him getting slept by any legit world champion. He showed basic fundamentals in the Ohara fight but the problem is that ohara turned out to be a complete bum. looking forward to his vasquez fight to see the truth.

Josh Taylor is the real Deal gentleman, legit world champ in waiting. Maybe him and Josh Kelly way down the line in a Scotland vs England mega fight....
