Jermain Taylor v Kassim Ouma Saturday, 09th December, 2006!!!!!!!!!!

If Ouma had more power it'd be a different story. He'll make Taylor work for his victory, but I think JErmain will win this. Maybe even....*GASP*....convincingly!

wow... Taylor has a good opposition than any fighter in terms of his 3 fights..

1-2 Hopkins
3 Winky

All Top10 P4P, thought all of his last 3 fights end in controversy.

Taylor should take it without too much problem.

Prepare to be surprised..

I'm a big Ouma fan...and I'm stil very skeptical when it comes to Taylor (even you know this), but I can't see Kassim standing up to Taylors punches.

TAylor will be too strong for ouma.. although I will be cheering for him

[GattiFan]

If Karmazin hurt him, Taylor breaks his sticks. Late stoppage or KO.

Taylor will walk through Ouma

i agree with your points, and i believe that Ouma has many disadvantages going into this fight such as size, strength, favoritism (which, unfortunately, is a factor in the sport today)etc, and i know many will assume i'm only picking Ouma because i hate Taylor or something like that , but rest assured, had he taken on Mora, i pick Taylor without hesitation.. i think Ouma is the smarter fighter (or a least as smart), he's the more consistent-better pressure fighter, i'd say the slightly, and i mean slighty, more accurate puncher, and he's got decent defense (which i'm sure his camp knows he needs to improve on coming into this fight the smaller man), it's a TALL mountain to climb if Kassim wants to win, but it's narrow-mindedness IMO to say it's an easy win for Taylor (or it proves that ones knowledge of boxers needs to broaden). I understand all but the following posts, such as,

"Taylor should take it without too much problem."

"Taylor will walk through Ouma"

IMO, at worst, it will be a semi-close to close fight. I know for sure that, at the very least, when this fight is all said and done, Ouma will gain more respect than he has currently with the boxing community as a whole.. the one thing i pride Taylor on is i'm sure he's taking Ouma more serious than most of his fans are..
