Because i saw a pretty sloppy performence from Taylor going unpunished from a reluctant Pussycat otherwise known as run of the mill good fighter for his time Bernard Hopkins.

For somebody making his 19th defence against a Rookie id say Hopkins performence was a disgrace and he looked terrified of a clearly nervous Taylor .

Taylor was a bundle of nervous energy and was missing alot and leaning with his punches .

Thats how id call it .
Yea Jermain Taylor made Hopkins terrified

Hopkins had fought the likes of Roy Jones and the hard hard punches of Echols with a dislocated shoulder... but JERMAIN TAYLOR scared the begeebies out of him
Taylor clearly outworked Hopkins in the rematch though. An older fighter does right to get a little bit of fear. They are not the same as a few years earlier. The body clock begins to slip.

Taylor is not the best opponent Hopkins has faced, and yet was able to win like few others ever could...
