he probably wont retire with all the belts intact....but lets stop hating on taylor for just a bit. he could fight 2nd tier fighters and have easy defences, but he is at least taking on the best. And to be honest he is still very competitive. The decisions might be infuriating, but no one has beaten Taylor soundly or with any real clarity as of yet....

He should have a long great career in front of him. He's just getting started.

... He will have a great career... people like Andre Ward with a weak chin will be swept aside.

He is only getting better, But that is very hard to do.

i still dont think he beat anyone to show we he is the champ, i wasnt impressed with the wins over hopkins, and i dont even know how much hopkins cared to win, he planed on moving up weight anyway it seems

In a word

NO

He will probably move up to 168 or 175 while still Middleweight champ and he could win at 168 or 175 imo. So it depends on the titles you mean.

He is still a fairly young fighter and has a long career ahead. What will happen in that time no-one knows. One thing is certain that due to the calibre of opponenents Taylor is going up against he is sure to be in a lot more big fights. Is talyor not planning to move up in weight as well? I reckon he could be the sort of fighter that is more interested in the super fights as opposed to the mandatory fights against lesser opponenents. Time will tell and hopefully a long time at that!
