Taylor looked flawless in his last fight against Martinez on the Jones-Tarver undercard. He can do everything, i think we have a very special fighter on our hands here guys.

Yeah, always thought he's got champion written all over him. I think he will suceed Hopkins, and will also suceed Calzaghe / Ottke at Super Middle.

No doubt Taylor looks a special fighter, have you seen his left jab

Credit to channel 5 for putting ESPN2 fights on 8)

Its also easier for us all to avoid the result when its only a 24 hour delay!

McCoy is looking forward even more so to the undercard fight between Nate Campbell & Daniel Attah

Campbell of course lost a close decision to Joel Casamayor on the Mayorga v Forrest 1 undercard, some even thought that he won the fight

Attah is best remembered for his brave performance against Acelino Freitas in a fight where Attah had his moments, but lost on points, but since has beaten Bulgarian prospect Toncho Tontchev, and has since lost to unknown mexican Manuel Bocanegra

Both guys are good fighters, & are pretty much evenly matched

Channel 5 should definitely show this fight, as their program is scheduled for 1hr 20mns long

Yep Campbell looks a future champion too, he did well against the brilliant Casamayor. A real character too, I read a hilarious interview with him a while back. Bit of a James Toney type..

Guys,

It starts at 2.10 and finishes at 3.am

ok, no'one go to secondsout.com if you don't want the result, they've already posted it (unusually prompt for them imo)

It's funny you should say that, because coming out of the olympics, he weren't looked at as the most talented one, but he has emerged. That's why I hate when people hype up good amateurs.

Yeah i orderded the HBO version of Jones-Tarver and Taylor's fight was at the start of the undercard before a snoozefest between Winky Wright and Angel Hernandez. Taylor just smashed the jab into Martinez's face all night and even doubled up and threw in a solid left hook, unofficial judge Harold Lederman even gave him a 10-8 in one round without having his man on the floor such was his dominance. He eased up in 5 and 6 and moved onto the back foot and against the ropes at times and was equally impressive, despite his record the tough Martinez was no mug and Taylor picked him off with classy counter shots. He's a star in the making and is well spoken and listens to country music apparently

Not your average fighter from the "Hood" i don't think.

He must come from the sleeve then, country music is very popular there, or so I am led to believe.

He is from the 'hood.

The 'hood of Little Rock, Arkansas.

MightyWarrior · Post by **MightyWarrior** » 11 Jan 2004, 08:24

Yeah he's from Bill Clinton country, no wonder he likes his country music.
