Comments Thread For: Josh Taylor: I Started Very Poorly, I Thought Postol Was Slower

[Shadoww702]

I had Taylor winning by one round, so the knock down was crucial.

It's a shame that all three cards were absolutely pathetic, but this is the norm these days and nothing will ever be done about it.

Those scorecards were beyond TERRIBLE!

The Taylor from rounds 1 to 8 is nowhere near dethroning Prograis but the Taylor after that is maybe 2 or 3 fights away from giving him a good scrap at least. Taylor vs Relikh would be good buzz.

Thats passing a test. Coming on strong against a former champion in the championship rounds. Hes ticking boxes. It was his 13th fight.

WBSS or Ramirez I dont care 99.9% of fighters wouldnt take either option at his stage in their career

This is a nice win, but don't misinterpret what happened. Postal has been on a slide, the last guy he "beat" almost KO'd him. It is more likely Postol faded late and youth prevailed. A very good win for 12 fights, but Postol ain't a patch compared to Prograis and what if Taylor has to fight Ramirez in Fresno?

He sure is learning on the job - in front of our eyes. Next time out he has to start like he finished against Postol then show us even more money as the fight goes on. We all know where Josh needs to be to take on the true elite, which Postol frankly isn't. 140 lbs suddenly got interesting again

Whats shown Prograis can stick around to the championship rounds? Indongo one of the worst champions in recent times, worst unified.

140 was brewing. Love to see Crawford go undisputed now at 140, things fell well, not knocking him though hes moved into an even more dificult division. I have him beating Spence by the way.

Great post, right on.

Yes a very nice win. Postal was in tremendous shape, same guy who went 12 w Crawford & t.k.o. Mattysse, on the slide or not. 140 is loaded, no one knows how good each of these guys really are until they fight each other. Taylor will be tough to beat in Fresno or Glasgow.

I prefer TC at 140 just like I prefer Mikey Garcia at 135. Crawford vs Prograis or even Taylor sounds better than Bud vs Danny G or Porter. I'm getting bored of the lack of excitement at WW. 140 is where the buzz is at.
