Jermain Taylor applies for license in Nevada

[MMASUX]

JT applied for his license in Nevada. It goes through its first stage Thursday during a meeting of the Nevada State Athletic Commission's medical advisory panel. I thought Taylor would be done by now, it's been two years now. I wish Taylor would just stay retired, he had a good career but has taken some big punches.

Good luck to him

[Pugilistic]

I hope he can bounce back strong.

He's a good guy.

[Tam Seddon]

He will never be a force at 168 at the world stage, he's shown that. The weight class is too strong, his only chance would be at 160. But even then he's been out for too long. It wasn't nice seeing him stopped late in two fights. I hope it doesnt happen again, but taylors stamina at the world level isn't good enough.

[Kev]

If he can make the weight he'd represent the best opponent at 160 for Martinez imo.

I think that would make for an interesting and fun fight.

[Spicoli]

Personally I hope he and officials think twice about entering a ring again. I think he's a spent shell and will be rushed into a big fight on name value and visibility and get torched badly.

I think Jermaine has had sufficient time to re-group and evaluate if he still has something to offer boxing. If he believes he has then he should be allowed to give it a go. Good luck to him, he may come back an improved and hungry fighter. He does need to take it slowly and steadily.

I agree. The time off will do him some good.

He should slow down his workrate a bit and concentrate on outboxing instead of glory one shot knockout attempts.
Sod it have pavlik vs Taylor part 3 at 168lbs

[Master]

If he has nothing left then go for an immediate big fight and let it all hang out. Otherwise build himself up possibly on ESPN.

I'd actually be interested in Taylor/ Pavlik 3

[Nameless]

Head traumas are the mother of all bitches. I wish him naturally all the best but in my heart, I feel like it's not the best decision possible and that remaining with kids and wife would be the best for his future.

[Dropanuke]

Pavlik will take the fight!!
They both need it

[Galaxy]

There are guys that have been ko'd more & worse than Taylor that are still fighting, he'll get licensed & if matched right against the likes of Sturm, Geale, Sylvester, Chavez Jr, Mora or a Spinks rematch he can hang around a bit
