He isn't a puncher. It took until Taylor was gassed to KO him. He punches about as hard as Frock, goos, but not great. Pavlik effectively finished a fresher Taylor with 1 right hand, early.
Froch stopped him on his feet, Abraham put him down like he was struck by a fucking lightning. And Taylor wasn't as gassed because the fight was less intense. Plus he could do nothing to Abraham unlike the Froch fight.
You're the fucking idiot, you German cunt. The punch didn't even have much meat on it, if you pryed your cuntish little german lips away from Arabham's testicles you'd see that JT got hit with better punches early with almost no effect. Taylor was ready to go, the right hand wasn't even the hardest punch Arabham landed.
He was winning at the halfway point, I hardly consider that "could do nothing". He lost focus, lost energy, and Arabham took over, which to be fair, is sort of what most people predicted. And Taylor WAS gassed. I don't care how intense the fight was, Taylor still gassed, that much was obvious. He looked tired and was just pawing with the jab.
If a punch doesn't look hard but KOs someone TFU, it's not the most logical conclusion, that the guy can't punch.
Why dont you open your eyes and figure out precisely why that is?.. For one,.. is Hopkins a pressuring destroyer?,.. he is, and always has been a strict, counter-punching bitch-fighter,..and whatever happens to Taylor from now on,.. will never, ever change the fact, that he can take Hopkins to the grave with him, it's DONE.. Hopkins lost, he lost, he fucking lost...:crafty: styles make fights,.. dont follow Hopkins around like a one dimensional idiot... and suddenly this "awesome master" turns to shit.
If the same thing happened in the 3rd round, I would say yep, Arabham can punch for sure. Taylor was ready to go, he juts gasses and becomes weak, and has nothing left. To clarify, I'm not saying Arabham is feather fisted, he has decent power for sure, but he is not a monster puncher. The punch that hit him was not as hard as some of the shots that hit JT earlier. When a hard punch lands you can see the impact, and you can even see the force rippling down the body, you see the head shake etc. If you want to see a hard punch, look at the replay of Pacman - Hatton.
