Comments Thread For: Josh Taylor Reflects on Prograis Fight, TV Scoring, Family, More

[1hourRun]

Do you know how desperate you sound to justify your disparaging remarks about Taylor before the Prograis fight? Every time you make a comment, you look ******er than the lost comment. It's obvious you mentioned a load of contenders, desperately hoping one of them has a chance against Taylor. What happened to Prograis? You were singing his praises like he was the man and would obliterate Taylor. You are arguably the most blatantly bias US fan on here who doesn't care how ignorant or uneducated you sound when time and time again, your predictions are wrong. You are a casual posing as a real fan who changes their favorite fighter on a fight by fight basis depending on if they win or not.

My predictions have been outstanding for many years on the boxinscene, you been thirsting for a chance to rub me the wrong way for a long time! But remember, like Juvenile from the Nolia said 'Rougarou' Regis Prograis is about to 'Bounce-Back'!

Apparently you have not watched Regis Prograis career. Prograis does not get touched up like this often, Regis has never been badly hurt. The Tart-Tomato on the other hand is constantly put on *****-street on the verge of getting stopped -- Ive seen this since Josh stepped up against a shot 'Titere' Miguel Vazquez.

Regis Pro, has the skill-set to bounce back, Taylor only has size and a chipped chin that is still holding up, but not for long.

Taylor's level of opponent has progressed quicker than Prograis has, that's all. Prograis' first opponent with a pulse was Diaz in his 20th, where Taylor's was his 10th against Davies. This seems to be a common theme when comparing the CV's of top fighters either side of the Atlantic. Not saying one way is better than the other, both obviously work as displayed by how closely matched both men were on Saturday.
Maybe Taylor's whiskers will last another 5 years, maybe just another few fights, you never know. While they hold out, I think he's the best in the division with Prograis and Ramirez not far behind. For the time being at least, all 3 are well ahead of the rest, as they show the best balance of skill, durability and power.

He's deluded and blind. Are you sure you can see out of that eye yet? Prograis clearly won rounds 11 and 12. I had it 7-5 RP.

[SinderellaMan]

Great, close fight. I feel it could've gone either but Taylor showed true grit in there.
Prograis didn't want it as much early on and that was the deciding factor.
A rematch at MSG would been epic!

[ShoulderRoll]

Let's not get it twisted.

Taylor won but just barely. It was a super close fight with not much separating the two at all.

A rematch would usually be warranted after such a tight contest.

That's just bitter American fans who can't handle the fact that Prograis lost against "Euro-bum" Taylor.

Don't lump us all together. Im an American and although I went back in forth at the end I picked Progais. It was a close and competitive fight with a CLEAR winner. That winner was Taylor no doubt.

Your mandatory the Thai Apinun Khongsong is coming for you Tart-Tomato. Your reign as unified champion at jr. welter will be very short Taylor, you might as well pack your bags for California U.S.A and cash-out against Jose Ramirez, before : Khongsong, Mario Barrios, or Subriel Matias knock you out!

Go hide under the rock you climbed out of and take your tears back there with you. Your darling sweetheart was defeated by a guy you called a BUM!

[richardt]

You boldly predicted Prograis was gonna knock him out ...

He has boldy predicted:

Prograis to knock him out
Baranchyk to knock him out
Martin to knock him out
Postol to beat him (was that knock out as well 1hourRun?)

The guy is totally clueless and deluded.

1HourRUN flaunts his ******ity like it is a badge of honor! He has pure hate for European fighters and it short-circuits the only two brain cells he has in his head.

I don't know how it looked on the tv, but after a decent start by Prograis, Josh definitely got the better of most of the rest of the action. He looked a lot stronger and just landed more punches while mostly pushing RP back. I was there at the O2 and had it 117-111 Taylor but a couple of the rounds were very tight but Taylor always looked stronger and certainly deserved it by several rounds in the end.
Since his 5th fight, I said on here that Josh Taylor would rule his division in a few years time. He's almost there

Let go of your jealousy and butthurt and get on board the Hank Express. Taylor has tomatoed all your prospects and former champs.
I can't wait until you start hyping up Ramirez's chances. I was there and Prograis won 4 rounds max and Taylor's eye was due to head clashes. Regis never landed a right hand ALL night. #1HourSonned.
