Re: Jermain Taylor: not quick to do what everyone else tells him!
Silent Killer brings up a great point. JT could have easily lost all three matches. I don't see how he is the man? He fought well against Wright and BHOP. But did he show his supremacy?? An emphatic No. He is blessed with supreme connections. I will grant JT that.

WIN, LOSE, or DRAW they were all extremly close matches against the best boxing has to offer! If anything he has proven he is just as good as them... and you try and convince anyone that to be as good as Winky Wright or Bernard Hopkins is a bad thing. ;D

The Wright fight would put him solidly as the elite in the 160 division....providing he beats Winky....IMO I think Winky won....
Re: Jermain Taylor: not quick to do what everyone else tells him!
Okay Hairdoo, to almost be as good as Wright and Hopkins is a noteable feat for sure. Is it good enough to talk about yourself in third person?? Does it grant you the right to be a moron?? Of course not. We are all in agreement here.
Re: Jermain Taylor: not quick to do what everyone else tells him!
Everybody knows JT lost to Hopkins. It's an agreement most people already accept. Just like De La Hoya beat Trinidad. The record books don't mean a thing cause people have eyes and television sets!
JT is just lucky to have Poppa Dibella and HBO cradling his not-so-incredible skills. Had the decision been given to Hopkins like it should have, JT would have just faded into obscurity like a handful of boxers that are good, but could not beat the reigning champ.
He lost to Winky as well, and I won't even laugh my a** off if he loses and goes back to the middle of nowhere... I mean Arkansas.
