He's lost four of five, three by stoppage... only win over a even more ruined lacy...Just wondering does any think that the tournament will be the last of him?

I hope he retires right now rather than going through with the tournament. He is a shadow of himself at this point after tonight. Jermain please get out while you still have your health.
I hope so. When Taylor gets stopped he really gets stopped. The Abraham KO wasnt as brutal as the pavlik or the froch ones, but the way he was lying on the ground after it was scary.
Taylor has made a lot of money in the sport and I think after the super-six he has few reasons to continue fighting.
Yes, after the tournament he's done, well he's done now, but he'll finish this.
Why do you think Lou DiBella was trying to get the most money for his first fight in the Fight 360 show.
He's scheduled to fight Ward next, right? It's another big payday for him and Ward isn't a big hitter so he probably will fight him. If Ward stops him he'd probably have to retire but if Kessler's promoter offers him a ton of money for a big fight in Europe who's to say? I think at least one more fight though.
This just in from Dan Rafael.

Hey guys, I'm back. That was Lou DiBella on the phone from Germany.
Lou said Jermain had a severe concussion and is in the hospital for precautionary reasons. He has had short term memory loss. Lou said he'll stay in the hospital for several days as a precaution. No decision has been made about his future in the tournament.
For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
He should hang them up,and I mean for good.Head up
concussion and short term memory loss? shit he's gotta retire. best of luck to him in the future.
Taylor might well be done. He needs a good holiday really. Kessler will probably stomp down on the other Ward, so it is Taylors best shot at a win IMO in the next round.
But that knockout was Hattonesque and we know that Hatton is in no hurry to come back. Taylor is on a bad, bad run, and getting sparked everytime now. He really deserved to go the distance against Abraham having got as far as he did and his confidence might have been somewhat okay. But I can see him being quite broken up that he worked so hard just to find himself crushed right at the end again.
It's a wait and see thing with Taylor, but it's apparent he will never solve his stamina issues nor ever fully clean out the ghosts again.
Jermains best shot would be to start going for early ko's, other than that retire.
Too bad they cant bring in Paul Williams.
The key is Self-discipline.
