Re: Has Jermain Taylor flown over the Cuckoo's nest?
His decline has been sad for me to watch because I was a big fan of his, I thought he was a fantastic fighter with a great jab, but he really went to shit after the Pavlik fights.
It's funny, I never realized all his loses were to white guys before he mentioned this haha.

He is definitely not the same guy he was before Pavlik and Pavlik is not the same guy he was before Hopkins. Destroyed confidence or what goes around comes around?Originally Posted by Beanflicker

Re: Has Jermain Taylor flown over the Cuckoo's nest?
If I'm being honest, it's a very selective video.
I could take snippets of anyone and make them appear nuts by doing that.
You say tomato,
‘n I say …… it correctly.

Re: Has Jermain Taylor flown over the Cuckoo's nest?
I think he was trying to be a bit self-deprecating...by saying he'll never lose to "another" white boy. I could be wrong, but I think Jermain was trying to take a shot at himself.
His attempt at humor failed miserably

Here's a link to his instagram where the videos originated - Instagram
TheBoxingTribune/BoxingMemes spliced together a few of his instagram videos to make him look bad.

Re: Has Jermain Taylor flown over the Cuckoo's nest?
Seemed to me like he said it a bit tongue and cheek as well, no big deal. He almost definitely shouldn't be fighting at a high level imo, but no reason to assume he's a bad dude or anything, we don't know what happened the night he was arrested.

Re: Has Jermain Taylor flown over the Cuckoo's nest?
Is fighting Sam Soliman fighting at a high level though?
He could win a title here and then maybe Cotto?
Im surprised everyone seems to have forgotten about Solimans drug cheating...

Re: Has Jermain Taylor flown over the Cuckoo's nest?
I don't know, but it's still a world title and Taylor probably shouldn't be in that picture. Soliman being old and a non puncher might let Taylor compete or even win, but we haven't seen him fight a decent opponent since his bleeding on the brain and all of that. He was hurt badly against another club fighter on ESPN in one of his return bouts, I wouldn't be surprised to see him get hurt in this fight even, he's a liability.
I hadn't forgotten about the drugs either, pretty suspect that Soliman is even still around at his age with the way he fights.
