He fought a good fight but he lost. Taylor is a guy who fights to the level of the guys he fights. If the guy is good he will show his talent. I think Pavlik will make things easy for Taylor to shine. Effective aggressiveness is how you win moving forward, and with boxing you have to land effective counters and control the action and not get hit. Cory did not do that. Cory fought a busy fight and was quicker with shorter punches but he did not land a solid punch. How can you win a fight like that?

It was teh same way Floyd beat Oscar .
Spinks stuck to his gameplan and fought his fight .Taylor didnt . You could see at the end the look on both fighters faces , they knew the score and so did Manny Stewart
Re: Cory Spinks vs Jermain Taylor Who Really Won Come And Vote
it funny. before the fight i was the main one saying Spinks would win and upset the world. now i the main one saying taylor won.
Re: Cory Spinks vs Jermain Taylor Who Really Won Come And Vote
you know what I'm just so happy with this fight...I just saw one thing one big thing
CALZAGHE IS GOING TO MASSACRE TAYLOR :-)
go one and sadclick me :-)
Re: Cory Spinks vs Jermain Taylor Who Really Won Come And Vote
i don't know about massacre but it does give people people more ammo to pick JC
Re: Cory Spinks vs Jermain Taylor Who Really Won Come And Vote
Taylor did NOT beat Spinks...and Spinks did NOT beat Taylor..... Daxx
I have to agree with you, Mr. Kahn.
That was a Mexican standoff if I've ever seen one. Spinks did what everone expected him to do and Taylor embarrassed himself.
Who cares if you look bad, Jermaine?! Just go apey on his ass and end the fight!!!!!
Re: Cory Spinks vs Jermain Taylor Who Really Won Come And Vote
I say the fight should have ended in a "no contest"
But in all fairness to Cory, the 117 -110 score was not all wrong. He made Taylor turn, follow and freeze for 11 rounds. Taylor was the definition of inept. While Cory did not do much in terms of offense, his game plan worked better than Taylors and looked more composed and relaxed thoughout the fight. He was in complete control while Taylor was trying to find himself. I have to give the edge to Cory in this one atleast 7 rounds to 5.

People have to remember.. He may have made jermain look bad all night..But what was he doing..
He should have pressed the issue and taken the title away for taylor..
He didnt emphasize his performance enough atall..
You cant just win, He wasnt the champ ..He should have fought the right fight
I was disapointed in both guys.. Jermain for not wanting to fight enough..
And Spinks for running.. I always knew he was a great boxer, has great speed,counter punching..
He has always boxed.. But he still fought when he was in with the likes of mayorga and judah..
Last night he didnt fight and box..He ran and boxed
Didn't Mayweather beat the champ by running two weeks ago? Taylor should realise you can't win a fight when you don't throw fucking punches. The guy was shocking. Spinks didn't do much, but at least he threw punches!!!

Jermain Taylor is an idiot. You can beat a champion by running. Just like Mayweather beat Baldomir. I don't understand where he comes up with this stuff. Must make him feel better after the biggest suckfest since Liakhovich/Briggs.
Disagree alot had Taylor winning it was very close fight but in reality im sick of Taylors close decisions like i said in the another thread he is lucky he isn't 0-4 i just wish Taylor would beat someone bit more convincing i gave him break against Hopkins and Winky because they are one of the best of modern era but fact of the matter is most people and most of boxing world were saying Taylor would beat Spinks bad and really the bigger and stronger man should of won alot more convincing i give him no credit getting gift against Spinks its just getting bad to watch with all these dull and controversial decisions Taylor keeps getting into.
I agree with Ice Cold. I has Spinks win on Saturday, but I had it 116-114 for Taylor against Winky...I really wanted Winky to win tho.

I had to :coolclick: you. Least it became abundantly clear why Calzaghe wants this fight. To be honest though, after JT's last few displays, even if JC wins I don't think he'll get the credit because of how bad JT has looked recently. JC should go cement the legacy by fighting the guy who's undefeated in his own division.

You know I am truly hoping that Taylor turns out to be one of those guys who fights at his opponents level??...At least there would be an excuse for these performences....
Judges decision or not...Corey Spinks is the real Winner of this whole deal justy due to the fact everyone (Including myself) thought this was a lamb on his way to sacrifice.....
I am impressed he went and did his thing against a bigger man...

no it was not the same way Floyd beat Oscar. Look at punchstats. FLoyd was landing more effective punches. Big difference. Taylor controlled the action.. So did Floyd. Big difference
