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?

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.
