Yeah I hope he stays far far away from Golovkin, have him fight an easy fight or two make some dough and then retire without being ktfo hopefully.

Looks like Floyd now has 2 potential champions as candidates to fight at MW! HAHAHA! (But he clearly could have taken Soliman as well...)

It's just weird that these two are fighting for a world title 10 years after they should have been. Strange fight - did not look anything like a world title fight.

Was a lacklustre championship fight. But, it is what it is. This is also a bi-product of the Floyd/Manny mega shows- it leaves resources, time and people who would more than otherwise have been ppv and premium cable fights turn to ESPN and Fox Fights, along with NBC and the like.
:rolleyes:

How long before Taylor gets in there with a live guy and gets smashed in his jaw? He didn't look like the Taylor who won his first title at all. The fight almost seemed like a high-priced sparring session- courtesy of Al Haymon.

Haymon is turning into a boxing deity of sorts! It's a little disturbing. After every match you have to hear Haymon's name mentioned, regardless of the promoter.

The major networks are to blame for this as well.

Holy shit! HAHAHAaaa! You're such a hater that you managed to find a way to blame Floyd for the Taylor Soliman Fight!

The fight was awful but I like Soliman as a person even if he has an awful style.

Quillin sounded articulate, hope things work out for him.

Hayman come up trumps for Taylor.

Dirrell looks good too.
