    Get well Taylor, you're going to need to be in top shape just to be able to dehydrate to Jr. Welter, you big stiff! Regis Pro will make you look foolish!
    I've been waiting for your latest blast of hot air and you didn't disappoint.

    You can cut and paste that if you want

      When Ring magazine launched its new championship policy back in the early 00s, I was all in. I had grown tired of the ABC groups. And I thought The Ring doing what they were doing was gonna inevitably drive the ABC groups outta the sport. But when DLH bought the magazine, the belt lost a little credibility. Then they went and changed the policy in the name of simply handing out more belts. Which cheapened the title even more. So in my mind, it’s basically just another belt. I still think it’s a little more credible and prestigious than the ABC trinkets. But nothing like it was fifteen or so years ago.

          It's going to be a good fookin fight yo!!!

          Baranchyk tried, all 12 rounds. I like the aggression in the last 3 rounds after being tired and unsuccessful there to, that takes heart and real desire. But it was clear way earlier that these guys were operating on two different levels. A difference in iq. There were a lot of moments early on where I thought Taylor was showing what he was going to do, but Baranchyk just wasn't able to read Taylor well enough to stop him (and it's always easier to comment from the outside looking in, than it is to be inside the ring).

          I'll be very interested to see how and if Prograis can limit Talor's movement early on and get him to fight on his terms...I suspect he will. Otherwise Taylor will slow as the fight progresses anyhow and his d better be on point the full fight. I'm looking forward to this great fight.

            People, I have an important new:

            In this fight I'm in a bet with Sid-Knee

            I go with Prograis.

            The bet is a permanent ban.

                I'm just glad that Baranchyk left some for 'Rougarou'. Josh Taylor will fail to unify, the IBF and the Ali trophy is coming home to America where it belongs! Thanks for keeping it warm for a couple months Ireland -- I know Conors defeat by 'Money' Mayweather hurt the nation, but I got bad news for you Taylor is getting schooled.

                I stand corrected, regardless of what part of Ireland Taylor's from he is getting it!

                Let me just say thank you on behalf of all of NSB member's. Sid-knee is a awful hate driven poster; this board is better off without that piece of trash!

                  Ireland ? He is from Scotland. Damn you Americans really don't know sh#t about anything huh?

                  Anyway, this is a great fight, a real 50/50 scrap. But I think this is going to be the last WBSS season unfortunately. The fans have not supported it enough. They aren't making a whole lot of money off of it so I don't see how they could continue. Final should not be in the US because Regis couldn't draw a big crowd there. Do it in England or something

                    Inoue is best in tournament hands down. IF he gets past Donaire (which I believe he will) hes run will be better than Usyk to me. Hes pretty much steamroll high quality fighters.

                      Regis will make it look easy. Josh will take some punishment before Regis decides to get rid of him.
