Taylor said he wanted an easy fight well I think he gets it here with a small jr middleweight. I think this is an easier fight than even Sergio Mora would have been.
I am saying an easy decision or an 8th round stoppage.
What do others think.

Taylor won't stop Ouma the dude just soaks up punishment & shakes it off. This fight is better than Mora. Ouma would KO Mora or give him a beating.Quote:

Plus, I think Ouma just walks into JT's punches. It's just to much of a size descrepency.
I like the match up bro. People were talking about Ouma taking over the middleweight division once Hopkins moved on before his loss to Karmazin. I still think Taylor wins a decision but he'll know he's been in a fight cause Ouma won't stop trying.Quote:

cc bro I'm agreeing with you, I would have preferred to see him in with Quartey or Spinks, hell even Vargas would be fun. Maybe the money's good or he really believes he has a chance. Look Baldomir is fighting Floyd & I don't think he'll win a round. I give Ouma a better chance Vs Taylor than I give Baldomir Vs Floyd. Gotta give him his props for stepping up to such a big challenge though.Quote:

I just don't like it because, Ouma is there to hit. No one has had trouble hitting Ouma, it's just the fact that he comes from so many different angles, and he is so relentless that people have trouble controlling him. Now Jermain isn't any sort of ring general, but he is just so big that if Ouma would have to slip his punches and create openings for himself. Don't doubt that he'll land, but slipping Taylor's punches? Again, Taylor isn't the most overwhelming puncher but...Ouma is just there.Quote:

Make no mistake about it, this is an easy fight for Jermain. He likes beatin up on little Jr. Middleweights. He's a bitch like that. Ouma is more credible and proven than Mora though. But he's a small to medium sized 154 lber, who's a bit chinny and open to shots, and Jermain is a HUGE 160lber who no doubt starves himself to make weight and has pretty good power for his weightclass. I see a knockout/TKO for HBO and their little hypejob Taylor.
Not much different from the Jorge Paez Oscar De La Hoya fight
IMO this is wrong time for Ouma to fight JT anyways, combine this with the size difference and hes fooked! Taylor 8th round KO.
Because Jermain Taylor is HBO's new media darling and they will continue to put "names" on his record no matter how green or how shot they are, as long as they make sure he doesn't lose to them. They tried to do it with Mayweather but then he said "slave money" and they found someone else.Quote:

I think Ali said it best
"I am not afraid to be myself. All of you people are trying to convince me to be nice. Well Joe Louis was the nicest ya'll ever had and we saw what you did to him."
Is there a link? Cause I don't see anything about it saying that its signed, only just that boxrec has it listed, but they're not always right.
ESPN said it on Friday Night Fights, Ouma must have been watching and released a statement, but if Ouma didn't even know about it until he saw that on Friday Night Fights then chances are it isn't happening.Quote:

I think it will be an entertaining match ! If Taylor thinks this is an easy fight, he need to get off cloud nine, cause that kind of thinking get him in big troubles. !
This fight is all wrong for Ouma at this point in time...maybe a few years down the line, but this is all wrong for Ouma right now...
Taylor would wear him down and that harder output would make the difference...
