**What will make Jermain Taylor "THE" Premier MW Champ** Cuz he's not
He has fought great opposition but he has yet to " impress me " He is a top tier fighter, no doubt... But he has yet to asssert himself as the premier MW Champ ^-^

Re: **What will make Jermain Taylor "THE" Premier MW Champ** Cuz he's not

He needs to stop getting decisions handed to him. He needs to dominate or at least not leave it controversial.

Hate to break ballz brother, but that statement is condradictory "He is top tier no doubt"????But he is not impressive to you
You all forget...When was the last time Bernard Hopkins and Winky Wright got KO'D or involved in a offenseive gunfight or looked overmatched???? I think it is impressive that this "kid" and "prospect" has 2 wins and a draw(controversial or not) against 2 Hall Of Famers Oh and By the way the 2 premier defenders(besides James Toney ) in the game the past 10 years and still is middleweight champion..
and he is just starting to reach his prime ;)

Re: **What will make Jermain Taylor "THE" Premier MW Champ** Cuz he's not
thats because he was handed the Wright and first Hopkins decision. The rematch could have went either way.

Well if you thought Jermain Taylor fighting the Contender champion is bad, Calzaghe might be fighting Joey Spina who failed the auditions to even make the show :-\

A pure Boxing fan will know the 2 people he has been in with the last year and a half, if he knocked those 2 out he would be deemed the ultimate worldbeater, untouchable better than Ali better than Roy Jones, Mayweather....Can you guys even name a fighter in the last 10years that has fought 3 bouts with Hall of Famers back to back like Taylor has??? let alone "Knock em Out"

Re: **What will make Jermain Taylor "THE" Premier MW Champ** Cuz he's not
He needs to convincely win a fight against a premier fighter. The decisions and draw against Wright & Hopkins could have easily gone against him. So far he has yet to impress many including me.
-
Re: **What will make Jermain Taylor "THE" Premier MW Champ** Cuz he's not
You gotta give Taylor credit for facing such tough opposition 2 fighters with Hopkins & 1 against Wright both who are top 10 P4P fighters & he hasn't lost! I thought he was lucky to get the draw with Wright but thought he won both fights with Hopkins. Neither guy dominated Taylor which says a lot about his talent. Sure he didn't win convincingly but he wasn't beaten convincingly either. There were many who didn't even give him a shot at Hopkins the 1st time so to be in the position he is as middleweight champion with a 1st defense win over the #1 contender then his 2nd defense draw against the #1 contender is top notch. Taylor can only get better from here, he's already fought two of the best fighters in the world & hasn't lost who can ask for more than that?

Right back at ya ace, Taylor may not have looked that impressive but what is impressive is he went up against 2 of the best 3 times & held his own!

Re: **What will make Jermain Taylor "THE" Premier MW Champ** Cuz he's not
Let me just say this...I'm really REALLY big on Jermain Taylor. By far, he is talented & he's definently the best at 160lbs right now.
He got in the ring with the most talented middleweight in the last 10 years when he faced Hopkins & he did hold his own. Whether or not I thought that he did enough to win is entirely another story.
He got in the ring with one of the better defensively minded junior middleweights in the last 10 or 15 years when he faced Wright & again...he did more than hold his own...but again...the question of whether or not I thought that he did enough to win is once more an entirely another story. The thing is...he did do better than anyone period has...in the last 3-4 years. That's to be considered.
I've been a huge fan of the above three fighters since they all came into boxing...or since I started watching them.
I think that Hopkins will go down as my most favorite fighter of all time.
I think that Wright will come in at maybe third or fourth over all.
Taylor is still on my list...just not as high up as he was in the favs & all.
I was far more impressed with Taylor initially...more so than I am now.
I had a lot more love for Taylor before he was drawn into the Dibella/Hopkins fued. Prior to his "personality twist" (at the hands of Dibella) I thought that he was the future of 160lbs...that he was a good follow up to the Executioner.
Those thoughts are not that far out of reach or me still...BUT...I want to see him go back to who he was.
He's the champ now...but I can't say that I am that thrilled with the direction that "the Champ" has been pushed in to.
Taylor has had an odd run at the top...but I honestly believe that he can get back to who & what he was before the last two or three fights. He can reach the critical consensus & direction that he was headed towards before the first Hopkins fight & the Wright fight.
He just needs a few easy opponents that he can drop off for the public's satisfaction. To be the King...you don't have to rule the world...just your fellow subjects around you.

Agreed with the majority of that...but I still say the Nard won the first fight. Old story though...it's over & done with...but Taylor can be all that he can be, IWO.

Alright...here's my response to that...I love Wright...I think that he's the S***...BUT...Wright, IWO, isn't a 100% settled deal for me at 160lbs either. Also, if Winky knows he won (& I think that he did) then he should take the rematch & beat him one more time.
Then I'd be convinced. I loved that fight by the way. ;D

Its not contradictory... He is top tier cuz he hangs with top tier opponants... that doesnt mean, because he can hang in a fight with the greats of our time that he should be on a pedistal above them. I want to see him rise as the new power in the div or see someone i.e. Wright, take it from him.

Re: **What will make Jermain Taylor "THE" Premier MW Champ** Cuz he's not
i think jt is a good fighter and respect him alot, you gota take your hat off to him he is fighting the right guys just the decisions have been a bit controversial, hes a big middleweight with a strong jab and good right hand his stamina is not the best and his experince will only get better with time. Training with manny in the kronk is the way forward and i can see jt sticking at the top for a long time

Re: **What will make Jermain Taylor "THE" Premier MW Champ** Cuz he's not
it would be interesting if he moves up to super middleweight and fights calzaghe that would be good fight because i think i heard him say he wanted to move up

I'll agree there.
I like both of them...but I favor Wright...mainly because I think that Wright is pretty much the whole package...save the fact that he doesn't have stopping power in one hand.
Wright is a better boxer all around. He might not excite people...but he does win his fights when he wins his fights.

Re: **What will make Jermain Taylor "THE" Premier MW Champ** Cuz he's not
I tend to agree with most of what Wacko said, but not all. Weather or not you (or alot of others) thought he won those fights isn't another story, its the reason topics like this are still made.
i like that fact he is now taking an easy fight, Taylor looks to be a powerfull hitter a Ko's are expected - but in his defense not many would of through he would KO hopkins or winky, i sure as hell didn't expect him to, and Koing people isn't just what boxing is about. When was the last time winky scored a KO against a world class fighter? the last person hopkins knocked out was Oscar!
i think Taylor has alot of heart, and alot of talent; after this next hand picked fight i would really love to see him beat the winner of Abraham/Miranda and move up. Yes he just had 3 highly controversial fights but as of now there is nothing more he can do about them, tis why i think he should take on the winner of Abraham/Miranda (imo will be Abraham) i think next to JT Abraham is the next best at MW and beating him will leave Jt unsubtly the best at MW with nothing more he can prove and a step up to SMW will give him adleast as of now 3 top fights in calzaghe, lacy and kessler providing kessler comes through his next unification fight.
although i highly doubt he will beat calzaghe, i believe calzaghe is to good for him, but i am welsh, and calzaghe is my all time fav fighter so home town pride may well be clouding my judgment - i think he is good enough to beat kessler and lacy dominated the SMW (as i think calzaghe will move up after his 20 title defences) and there JT being rememberd by the vast majority of true boxing fans as courageous fighter, who had one drive and that was to fight and beast the best always.
Its very seldom you see fighters outside of Mexico go after and fight the best leaving no question mark about a fight that could of/should of happend - Taylor is young enough, good enough and i believe has the heart from here on out to be one of them fighters and i hope he does it, if not for our sake of seeing the best of him and seeing world class fights from him every time, but for his sake. 'Coz like it or not, agree with it or not if he stays to 'dominate' MW he will be rememberd by alot of boxing fans as the fighter who was gifted 3 fights against the 3 best fighters he fought - and that would sadly be a great unjust to him.

Re: **What will make Jermain Taylor "THE" Premier MW Champ** Cuz he's not

I think that wev'e all seen more than a handful of decisions that we/the fighters/or media have thought was the wrong shake.
Taylor Wright was one that many did not agree with.
So the decision is not always the fighters to make...it's often left up to judges & networks...so no...you can't just say that Wright would be MW champ now & be done with it.
-
Re: **What will make Jermain Taylor "THE" Premier MW Champ** Cuz he's not
To say Taylor needs to win his fights in a more dominating fashion after he's just fought two of the best fighters in the world and come out with two wins and a draw is laughable ;D
Even if you think he lost the fights they were all bloody close, proving that he's the best, joint/best middle in the world.
-
Re: **What will make Jermain Taylor "THE" Premier MW Champ** Cuz he's not
Wright is not the better all-around fighter, Winky has defense, he uses the ring well, and has a good 1-2 that's where everything slows down for him. Winky can't press the pace of a fight, he can't KO anyone at anytime, he doesn't move all that well but he is a good judge of his own range which is what makes it difficult to really hit him good...basically if someone got on their bike he'd have a tough time catching them...Floyd, Oscar, Ray Leonard, Ray Robinson, Roy Jones Jr., Chris Eubank, etc would have frustrated Winky with their speed.
JT is a true athlete, he's one of those guys who could be put in any sport and succeed. He's big he's quick, he's powerful and he's a young guy too so he's still got learning to do....there will come a point in his career where it'll remind us of Roy Jones Jr. or Marvin Hagler or Ray Leonard where he'll totally dominate other fighters who are as good as they come and he'll make it look easy. But alas those days are 3-4 years down the road.
I think JT has proven himself more than any other middleweight and he's the #1 guy at 160.
Abraham - hasn't been hit hard yet and he hasn't fought anyone who's all that great
Miranda - has been stunned already and his boxing skills haven't been tested yet.
Kelly Pavlik - probably has the best chance of becoming a star his size at 160 gives him an advantage over pretty much everyone but he hasn't been truly challenged yet
Sergio Mora - The Contender winner hasn't impressed me, he's the best thing ESPN can muster
Yuri Foreman - a light hitting middleweight he has the workrate and speed to be tough for anyone but his competition has been limited to journeymen so far.
Sturm - recently KO'd by the ancient Javier Castillejo has lots of work to do, he fought ODH tooth and nail but never fully capitalized on that showing.
Fernando Vargas - a cagey veteran who will no doubt be moving up to 160 since losing to Shane Mosley will be a tough fight for anyone on this list, he might not have the pop he used to but his heart will test anyone

That was something i wanted to mention in my post. Whe he took the title from hopkins he was still young and beat a 'legend' so great things were expected of him. When hopkins got his first title he didn't take to from a legend, he didn't have to have a rematch with a legend, or then go on to defend his title with a top 5 P4P fighter Jt did..
Not slating hopkins in anyway - but he was lucky enough to have a hell of alot easier fights as champion up untill the tito fight to settle, dominate fighters, put on a good show - JT was and still is fairly young ad had to make 2 instant title defences with top 5 alot would say top 3 P4P fighters...
So its going to be a good 2-4 years before he will dominate other world class fighters, he is still learning and still getting better.

Re: **What will make Jermain Taylor "THE" Premier MW Champ** Cuz he's not
Ok let me say that i hated Taylor for beating one of my favorite fighters twice and i wanted him to just get koed but then i really thought about it he beat a legend and got a draw with winky (good decision by the judges 8)) guys sooner or later were gonna have to accept him as the legit middleweight champion of the world.
