    Taylor also KO'd another unbeaten American, Ryan Martin, in his WBSS run.

    World wide, 2 of the biggest fights of recent years were the AJ/Ruiz and Fury/Wilder rematches, and the Brits beat the Yanks decisively in both if them.

      Taylor's a damn fine representative of the UK.

        Way to Validate them by only being able to List off those fights while I'm sure We Americans can run out a long list of Americans beating down Brits.

        YOU GUYS have a Circle Jerk when a Brit beats an American. Americans could careless about beating on Brits but majority of the time lets be honest it was expected to happen. So I'm not wasting my time replying with a list that is much much longer than the one you're able to come up with Past or Present because it is really no Comparison, Competition or even Rival!

        No issues with Brits, plenty of good fighters Past and Present but Brits are the ones starting threads trying to trash Americans but then when Americans replay guys want to get all sensitive and then they lump all Americans into Wilder fans and they always refer to Fury vs Wilder II as if Every American is hurt by the Defeat...No Only Wilder Fan Boys/Groupies Are!

          I watched Prograis watch the fight back and commentate on each round - he wasn't sore like some.

              He sure is, but if the Scots get another independence referendum, he may not be representing the UK any more. They are very pissed off about Brexit north of the border.

                Prograis showed how a real sportsman handles defeat. I was very impressed with his behavior after the fight.

                    If there's another referendum the silent majority will speak and we will say no again

                      Whatever happened to that "pretty boy" they were hyping up from the Olympics??

                      I like uk fighters they bring a different kind of character to the fight game. Yea they tend to take soft touches in their home land but they can he gritty and their confidence usually makes for entertaining build up
                      Josh Kelly? For me he lacks power and won’t do much at the top level.
