Taylor seems completely washed up and it won't be much of a win for Soliman.

This is awful. Soliman hits fairly light and has a high workrate. That's not a good recipe for Taylor's already horrific level of permanent injury. A lot of death fights come from guys who are light hitters simply whaling on a guy they're unable to KTFO until something much worse than a momentary knockout happens. See Griffith-Paret. Taylor should not be allowed near championship class again for his own safety.

bull**** fight, but fair enough. soliman gets a name albeit a washed up one and taylor gets the easiest road to a title. i never been a fan of taylor ever since he got those two gifts against hopkins, but he is a really nice guy and he sure came up on some hard times in the ring. it would be nice to see him win a world title and retire, even if its against a titleholder of solimans caliber.

I was a big fan of Taylor. I really thought he had quit for good. I think its a very winnable fight for him if he has anything left. He should just remember to get some good PED testing installed. Another thing is the weight. Can he make 160 again?
My big problem is what will happen should Taylor win? I'd so hate to see him KTFO again.
