    I think Jermain Taylor will be the best.

    just look at who this guy is fighting fight after fight. He fought Bernard Hopkins 2 times, fight after fight and beat him. Fought Winky Wright and had Winky NOT WANTING a rematch (in a close fight too, WTF!). And now he fights Kassim Ouma.

    Jermain has best competition in boxing right now.

      The question was is he fighting the best competition of any active fighter, there is no way that you can argue that.

        I admire Taylor because he fights the top guys and isn't looking for easy fights like most of todays champs. Sure he's not as good a fighter as some of them but his hearts in boxing.

          Taylor won the 1st fight in my view.......

          Winky fight is a draw in my view, but HE MADE Winky coward of him.

          Ouma is a good fighter and a top fighter.

            Taylor should NOT have got the W in B-Hop I.. I wont even touch B-Hop II .. it such a slow boring fight and in my opinion impossible to score.. BUT I am one of the few who thinks it was Winky Wright who got the gift .. Taylor landed much better quality.. and it was the 1st time I have ever really been impressed with him

                I think he is overrated. He hasn't had an impressive performance in any of those fights. When Hopkins hurt him in the first fight he held on for dear life. Also I don't think Winky is afraid of Taylor being as he came forward the whole fight. I don't blame Winky, if the fight goes 12 rounds they'll find a way to score it for Taylor. Aside from that I think he has promise, but hasn't lived up to it yet.

                  But that's always Winky's style. I've never seen him back up. He always boxes you forward, goes forward then covers.

                  He doesn't want the rematch with Jermain. Jermain's only flaw in that fight is that he thought he can counter Winky from the ropes, where he thought Winky would unload alot (so that tight defense opens up) since he was being cornered. If Jermain don't go to the ropes in a rematch, Winky loses pretty easy.

                  Jermain was hurt from intentional headutts, which I'm afraid to say pathetic in Hopkins' part.

                    you have got to have nothing but respect for taylor. he is doing everything in his power to better the sport and better his legacy. If every fighter was like taylor, boxing would be a hell of a lot more entertaining
