Salvador Sanchez vs Bernard Taylor

[Nile4000]

Being that Taylor survived 15 with Pedroza, did he have enough to hang with Sanchez for a full 15?

[Woldemar]

IMO Sanchez would stop him in 11.

[elmersalsa]

He will survive by running all night against anybody. Bernard Taylor didn't fight the great Eusebio Pedroza. He ran the whole fight. It won't be different with the great Salvador Sanchez. He will also run and run and survive.

[Ezzard]

Taylor was quicksilver. Super slick and a nightmare for anyone. He was made for the 12 round era which favours sprinters.

Sanchez might not have caught up with him over 12. Over 15 he wins.

[elmersalsa]

Bernard Taylor was one of those fighters that didn't fight and didn't let the opposition fight. A sprinter that thought that by running would win the title against the great Eusebio Pedroza. Please! You gotta fight and overwhelm the champion!

Same. UD Sanchez. Had Taylor thrown/landed 5-6 more punches a round he'd have gotten the decision vs Pedroza. The Panamanian couldn't keep up with him, but Taylor simply didn't throw and land enough in that fight. IMO it was a tough fight to score because Pedroza didn't do a lot of damage either. The fight was scored a draw and that was fair. Sanchez was quicker than Pedroza and threw more punches in most rounds and would have landed more vs Taylor, but Taylor would have lasted the distance

[Ezzard]

Sanchez would likely have been down on the cards after 10 rounds.

Taylo did well against Pedroza; how Sanchez is a different level. Would have been close for a while, but Sanchez would probably have gradually taken control.
