    Mark Kriegel is such a cheap ripoff of Merchant.

    I dont think Taylor could fuck with Crawford, Spence, or Boots.

    Vergil would probably be too strong and powerful.

    If he was younger i would say to stay at 140 add to your legacy in the division but he's 30 and i don't know of any other big money fight available right around the corner. Maybe wait around for Lopez to move up.

    I dont know if he'll have to wait around long.

    If we take Fimo at his word, he's willing to challenge Taylor as soon as he's done with the Aussie bum.

    Lopez is certainly a more winnable fight for Taylor than Crawford is.

    Not everyone is fortunate enough to be from West Hollywood.

    Taylor won clearly but he had some trouble getting to Ramirez consistently and had to resort to holding quite a bit.

    Bayless let them fight on the inside and had them fight their way out of clinches.

    I am not saying Taylor "cheated" but he certainly took liberties with that. Punched during every clinch, every break & pulled Ramirez's head/neck down.

    The first KD was nice...caught Ramirez rushing in. Seems like he was waiting around quite a bit for the chance to do that again. It definitely was not the balls to the wall effort he put forth against Prograis.

    Taylor was ''lucky '' to get the kd or he might have lost this. He reminds me a bit of Bute but with more grit

    Taylor would be the best victory of Crawfords career.

    Bayless used to be a legit referee but he gave Ramirez plenty of time after each kd. Thank goodness for crooked Kenny cuz I had taylor by decision

    Hurt my ribs again yesterday and fell asleep. Woke up at 4.30am local time.

    Turned on my phone.

    "Taylor unifies with 2 knockdowns".

    Threw my phone away and went back to sleep FML.

    Anyways.......seems he did well for himself last night.

    Just watching highlights here. Ultra quiet affair. Very sucky.

    Put that fight in Glasgow it would do 50,000. Make Braveheart look like a library.

    You know what fuckin annoys me is that Canelo was barely in the ring by 4.30am local time.

    But this time, a fight I needed to be in on, it was all ov
    It's a movie about a Britain on the turn. London is a very seedy place at times.

    Don't get it.........why do people think that "Bob Arums Immediate Reaction" or "Tyson Furys Immediate Reaction" or "Mikey Garcias Immediate Reaction" is something that I actually care about?

    Who buys a fight and says "I can't wait to get _________ immediate reaction" after the fight?

    Nobody. That is who.

    I remember Glenn McCrory being brought out to give his take on the fight. Who gives a dusty fuck what he thinks?

    20 years ago maybe. Now? I mean......he's not a trainer, he's not a coach, he's famous for sparring Mike Tyson, losing to Lewis and being a half-assed Cruiser or something.

    But it's unreal, they got these guys coming out the woodwork to give their opinion...........they'll have Micky Duff on soon at this rate.

    Mike Leigh (along with Ken Loach) is a god to me. Leaving the opening scene open for interpretation was a risky move. Even the wikipedia page for the film was only recently changed from saying he rapes a woman in Manchester to having consensual sex with a woman who begins to complain when he becomes aggressive. This is so important because depending on your interp of the opening events, it's how you feel toward the protagonist.

    Just watching it in full now.........Bayliss........SMFH.

    11 seconds between the completion of the first 8 count and the resumption of action.

    Almost the exact same for the 2nd knockdown.

    He actually pushes Ramirez away so and then ushers him to walk to him.

    On both occasions he pushes Taylor back too.

    2nd knockdown Ramirez was definitely on queer street.

    I hve it 68-63 for Taylor end of the 7th.

    I've looked at the 4th round three times and the way I see it is that Taylor won the first and third minutes of it.

    Commentary was very biased too. Ramirez lands a right to the body they go mad.

    Best case you can make for Ramirez after 7 is 67-64.
