I does seem like Mora is more concerned with not losing and not getting KO'd than anything else. He probably made the right assessment that he wasn't ready for Taylor. I think only time will tell, whether he was being smart and just waiting to gain experience, or being chicken.

The other thing to think about is many around him may have been telling him he wasn't ready for Taylor. That could definitely have taken the steam out of his sails, or he may really trust advice from those around him. Of course, most of the warrior types would just go ahead and go for it, but he seems to be more the calculating type. Again, whether he's calculating how he can milk the most out of his career while avoiding as much danger as possible, or really trying to find a path to greatness, IMO remains to be seen.

I can find the Mora fight, but can't find the Gomez one on Comcast. Maybe they just haven't finished updating the schedule yet?
