Taylor vs. Baranchyk

[Vegemil]

To be honest I don't see how people are saying Baranchyk beats Taylor. It seems clear as day that Baranchyk has 0 defense and was losing rounds to a guy with 7 KO's that WAS STANDING IN FRONT OF HIM.

Not only does Taylor know how to move, but he actually has punching power. We've seen Taylor and Prograis in with world talent but who has Baranchyk fought or looked good against?

[Vinnykin]

Taylor breaks down Baranchyk easily, the guy is a brawler and Taylor has too much experience to be ****** into that kind of fight.

Expect a more dominant performance from Taylor in this fight, then onto the only guy that has a chance, Regis Prograis.

WHO Says that? Taylor box Circles around Ivan all he has is a punchers chance. Ivan is very heavy handed so Taylor will have to be careful not to get caught

Taylor by UD

Baranchyk is not elite talent and i wasnt impressed.

Taylor beats him i have no doubt.

[KTFOKING]

Taylor all day in this match up. Just waiting for the Prograis showdown.

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

Easy work for Taylor, he’ll beat Prograis easily as well IMO. Clearly the best fighter in the tournament

[lolpz]

Taylor better box and not get ****** into a fire fight with Ivan. That was Yigit's problem.

Taylor could possibly stop him late if he fights the right fight.

Taylor is gonna get busted up to ZERO.
Baranchyk will be the winner of the tourney

[Eff Pandas]

Yea if anyone is saying Josh won't look 2 levels above Baranchyk I'd disagree. Josh & Regis are the clear top 2 guys in this tournament & by a pretty wide margin as I see it.

And as to the finals (which I think is a virtual lock to happen minus some Ryan Burnett type situation) I was initially leaning Regis' way, but I think Josh's speed might be the difference in who wins & loses in that fight. Idk if Regis learned a lot in the Flanagan fight or not, but if he didn't dealing with Josh's speed & his assortment of punches is gonna be highly problematic for him I feel like & if Regis is waiting a lil too long at times like he did with Flanagan Josh is gonna be doing a lot more offensive sh^t than Flanagan did. The one question that Josh might get answered vs Regis is how good his chin is. Cuz Regis is probably gonna land the hardest punches Josh has been hit with in that fight. Idk, just rambling about this one now, but greatly looking forward to this match that I think is gonna happen in the finals.

Yigit looked like one of snow white’s seven dwarfs yet he had no problem putting hands on baranchyk. He didnt have any trouble landing on the guy.

Taylor would beat him quite easily.
