Mora can make you pay for missing, not with knockout power, but with some stinging punches that will be felt in the long run...

Mora has good stamina, so, stickin and moving is not going to be an issue...

Mora also doesnt respond to pain or getting cut, he handles himself well....

Taylor, I really need to see how he looks...I cant judge anything atm with him because, of the change in camps....I know that he had about 6-8 weeks with Manny before the Winky fight, that should have made a difference, but it didnt...I am going to watch and see how he looks after 3 months...If he changes with some of the speed and how he fights off the ropes, he will be different when going into a fight....

If he goes into the ropes like he did with Winky, Mora will jump all over it...he loves getting fighters on the ropes and can make it a bad thing for his opponents....

I would have to say this....If it was a go tommorow,,,

I would say SD Sergio Mora...

If it happens this fall and Taylor makes the needed changes....

I would say TKO 10 for Taylor...and thats cutting it close on the TKO...I honestly feel it will go the full fight, but Taylor's power was looking good in the Winky fight....

Good luck,

Coach
Interesting perspective. I have only seen Mora a hand full of times and it seemed his defense lacked a little and I don’t think Mora has been in with the caliber of fighter Taylor has lately . The thing is Taylor fought 3 good fights against P4P fighters, and anytime you fighting that caliber of opposition its going to be tight, meaning that your opponents have the skills to catch the mistakes you make, that maybe someone of less caliber would be able to expose. You dead on, about Taylor backing into a corner with the left down, horrible habit indeed !
