Re: Taylor vs. Ouma mismatch?
In all honesty...I think that this says a lot for Ouma...& very little for Taylor.
I like Taylor...& don't really care that much for Ouma. No reason...Ouma just hasn't really struck a chord with me.
The issues I have with Taylor are many. The first being that I don't think that he's fought to the maximum of his capabilities...or if he has...then I just aint that impressed. I think that he lost the first Hopkins fight & he definently lost the fight against Wright.
The thing is...Taylor, IWO, has fallen prey to what I like to refer to as "Vargasitis". His promotional team has rushed him into the big fights to early. I think that he should have taken out the lesser gents of the game & eased into the top slot...but...I aint his management...nor am I he.
Anywho...back to Taylor vs Ouma.
I hate the fight. It's a step down for Taylor & a stupid fight for Ouma to take. Ouma's not really a viable opponent. He's not super star, he's not accomplished anything at 160lbs, & what's the point? Ouma got easily handled by Karmazin and he got dropped by Silva who is nothing more than weak opposition. Everyone has a bad night...but Ouma has proven to be less durable than most expected.
Taylor by TKO...but it's a wack ass fight that accomplishes nothing...unless ofcourse Ouma hits miracle street & outpunches Taylor down the stretch...but he better be on point & throw bunches.
Truthfully...I want Taylor to win the fight because I want Wright to win the rematch...which he will.
Never beg a 40 dollar hooker...specially after she's just turned down your mom's credit card!!
