Comments Thread For: Josh Taylor: I'm Confident That I Can Outbox, Outfight Prograis!

Is Taylor that much better than Terry Flanagan? We shall see.

He’s a lot more suited to 140lb...

SOOOO glad things got ironed out. I am a huge Prograis fan, but we are about to see what kind of talent he actually is. While it is not a true home field advantage for Taylor, it kind of is a home field advantage for Taylor. Prograis needs to come focused and own the early rounds or things will get bleeding interesting.

As stated in earlier posts, both of these fighters are stepping in with their best competition of their respective careers, which is what we hope for in these tournaments.

It’s a great fight.

Taylor is actually still pretty inexperienced as a pro. If he had a couple of tough fights before this one, i’d pick him to win more confidently.

I’m still going with Taylor, but i see it as a 50-50 fight. I do think Prograis is getting Taylor before he’s really peaked though.

Not only did Prograis go through with the fight, but also willing to do it in England. This is definitely a good sign from Regis. Would have looked really bad if this fight hadn't gone through. I got Prograis by dominant lopsided UD or stoppage.

He had no choice in the matter, he was trying to back out of the fight and make up stories about not being paid, which were untrue.

Speculate all you want, the fact of the matter is the fight is happening and Taylor has been given the advantage of the fight being in England. Taylor hasn't had to travel much. It won't matter. He is the inferior talent and Prograis will add his scalp to the resume.

What am i speculating about? he signed up to the WBSS and there has a contract, he doesnt have a choice about the location either because he sells 0 tickets in America, Taylor has a large fanbase and has sold out arenas multiple times, as for 'inferior talent' that is speculation on your part, we will see in the ring, cant wait

speculating about the delay to get the fight done. the mental battle begins before the fight. as long as the deal gets done, I don't care how it came about. I would have criticized Regis if the fight hadn't come off, given the Ramirez fight was there before jumping into this tournament. But now that it is official and clear Regis took the fight and is even going onto enemy turf, it is obvious he doesn't mind exposing Taylor at all.

The stories about not getting paid were true. The WBSS Eurobum promoters have done it to others not just him.

They were related to fight bonuses, he was paid, therefore claiming you were not is not true, as for 'eurobum promoters' grow up will you. all this uk/europe v america crap is lame and boring as hell.
