WILL TAYLOR EVER WIN A FIGHT CONVINVINGLY AGAINST A HIGH PROFILE FIGHTER IN WHICH HE IS GETTING THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT AND SQUEAKING BY LATELY? WILL HE EVER WIN WITHOUT CONTROVERSY? IS HE EVEN GOOD ENOUGH?
I thought he proved against Winky that he was a genuine champion.....
fighting fighters of Winky's and Bernard's caliber this early in his career will only making him a better fighter. He hasn't taken a beating yet.
Well dont forget he has been in with 2 of the best fighters in the world in his last 3 bouts.
You would struggle to find a more convincing points victory, than that of Taylor's against the then World class William Joppy; 12/0 across the board, with a 10/8 round to boot! ;)Quote:

To answer your question---NO.Quote:

Everyone seems to forget that Bernard wasn't his first opponent. He may not be the best technical boxer in the world, but he was knocking out plenty of good fighters long before his first match-up with BHOP.Quote:

britkid I'm surprised at you. Hoppy was off for a year after taking a beating from Bernard Hopkins and had only fought twice in the last 2 years ;) world class when Taylor fought him? doubt it ;DQuote:

Alot of these haters making comments about JT are the same people who love ODH. All his mega fights and never a good showing yet you hear people call him a legend. OSCAR, OSCAR, OSCAR
I think he is a great fighter...he just got in the ring with the best 2 fighters in the division in the last 3 fights...I don't think anyone has ever looked good against B-HOP or Winky....I think someone else is going to feel the rath of Taylor....as I said he's a great fighter and better person...the more I hear him speak the more respect him...very gracious...good kid....Quote:

Man Taylor is so raw and still doing a hell of a great job on legendary middle weights all he needs to do his Keep his freaking Hands up, fix up his foot work, and his freakin weird stance and nobody is messing with him Hopefully emanuel stewart will fix and tweak these things in JT i beleive on day he will be far better than hopkins ever was

i guess that logic only applies to fighters that you decide you like
If he works on Technique, he can finally win convincingly.
Amatuers have better technique than him. Any less technicall skills and he'd be Mayorga. haha :D
