You have to remember that Sturm is as green as Taylor is...you can't rush them along or otherwise you have a situation like you had with Vargas De la Hoya...or how about Mayorga De la Hoya...oh...bad example...Oscar got pretty much creamed by Sturm...I'm sorry...that was a bad example...but you get my point.
you are a child, how does "Oscar getting creamed by Sturm" justify the fact that Sturm is fighting washed up bums. Taylor isn't green he just fought hopkins, who is one of the best middleweights ever and one of the best fighters of his era. Also how can Sturm be green if he creamed Oscar, I mean Oscar isn't that bad. Sturm picked up more momentum in his career after his disputed loss to oscar but now he chooses to fight handpicked fights that will pad his record.
