I wouldn't change my opinion just because of a number. Only an uniformed fan would do that. Regardless of the decisions in the Hopkins and Wright fights, you can't deny they were close and to be that competitive with those two guys says a lot.

I dont want to discuss calzaghe vs. hopkins but hopkins' punch in that gif was nothing.

If if if...
You could also argue "if he KO'd Pavlik in the 2nd round and lasted 14 more seconds against Froch, he'd be undefeated".
Doesn't really matter. Overall nobody can argue that he's had a lot of VERY close fights against the best in and around his division.

Please don't bash me for this,but in my oppinion,the Taylor-Spinks fight was just like the DLH-floyd fight!!I remember being a little upset because no sooner than floyd won,Spinks lost in fights that played out almost identical!!
I think Winky won & Taylor did edge B-hop,but it's B-Hop who beat himself!!Someone mentioned not fighting until the 9-12 rounds & expecting victory,it happens,ask Tito!!

I agree with most, though, that it's not plausible to think of him as 25-7, because a loss to Hopkins in the first fight doesn't lead to a rematch and possibly not even a fight w/ Wink.
Of the disputed calls, strangely enough I had Taylor losing 115-113 in each instance. But of the four, I didn't take great issue with the 2nd Hopkins fight, and could accept to a degree the draw in the Wink fight.
I never saw the argument that he deserved the nod in the other two fights, though contend that each were close. I will say that the second loss to Pavlik was far more precise than the case for his losing to Hopkins and/or Spinks.

Originally posted by Bhopreign View PostWhat would you think of him then, had he not gotten either Hopkins decision, if he lost the Winky fight, the Spinks fight. Some people are split on these victories. Would your view change of Taylor is he was 25-7 instead of 28-3-1?
What if he got the Winky decision...and actually finished off Pavlik and Froch when he had the chance.
What would we think of him then?
