The difference between them is not just in the defensive department, AA proving he’s more powerful as well.
But in the end I feel sorry for JT, this is a very bad defeat that could send him in the retirement.
The worst thing that ever happened to Taylor was getting the nod over a slacking B-Hop twice he hasn't shown any improvement in his game since then. Not saying that as an excuse because I haven't seen the fight yet, but besides outclassing Ouma at a weight Ouma should never have fought at and putting on a relatively even performance in his draw against Wright he's not shown anything except mediocrity.
What can I say? You’re right.
I’m not even a Taylor fan, but I thought he could do better than this, he was very close (about 14 sec.) to pull off a decision in UK against Froch.
I still think AA is not that good and guys like Kessler, Ward or Bute beat him.
I'm not a fan either, but he is proof that man cannot survive on the jab alone contrary to what they tell you in boxing 101.
