Dissappointing performance from JT. He was being backed up by a smaller Ouma,needs lots of space to throw his shots which are slow and telegraphed,rarely throws combos and on top of all of that,was holding Ouma and didn't hurt Kassim so along with the other factors,is JT's power over rated? I was looking for a good performance,I lke the guys attitude but I really don't see what he has been working on with Steward? He is open to counters when he throws his right hand,as he cocks his left hand back so is wide open down the middle!! It was strange to see the small Ouma acking up the much muhc bigger Taylor and if I was Winky Wright,I'd want a rematch asap!!!

Ouma was dissappointing too,known for his work ethic yet I didn't see anything there although he showed heart to keep going forward but he needs to get back to 154!!!

Having seen JT's last few fights,I have to say,Im HUGELY dissappointed in Bernard Hopkins for not beating him..Hopkins is better in almost every aspect,so why the hell did he not win? Especially the second time around!

JC would abslutely wreck Taylor,his activity level would be way way way too much for JT especially as he backs up so much voluntarily,I mean Ouma was just walking after him and JT would just walk backwards! Calzaghe's speed would bedazzle Taylor!

This is just the way he fights, he wasn't blessed with a very exciting style to watch, and most of his fights turn up ugly. But I respect him for taking on all comers and doing everything he can.
Is this really how he fights in every fight? I have seen his ast 4 fights only so I wouldn't know but if it is,someone,somewhere is going to give him a beat down!!
