Re: Round-by-Round: Josh Taylor vs. Ekow Essuman | DAZN - 24 May 2025
TTT clearly ahead, but he's slowed and Ekow is of course "The Engine"

He’s lost a step. This is going to be a brutal test for Taylor.. far harder than it needed to be from his new promoters I think.

Looks like grueling fight for Josh

Queensbury have ended Taylor’s career at 147 before it even got started

How have people got it after 10?
Re: Round-by-Round: Josh Taylor vs. Ekow Essuman | DAZN - 24 May 2025
He more or less is. I mean he's 36 to Taylor's 34, and obviously hasn't had the wear Taylor has.

Essuman has by far the better attitude to the fight and just won't back down but Taylor doing the cleaner work for me.
Very, very close.

They probably wanted to see what he had left. He's not a 147 fighter.MightyWarrior wrote: ↑24 May 2025, 17:17 Queensbury have ended Taylor’s career at 147 before it even got started
Re: Round-by-Round: Josh Taylor vs. Ekow Essuman | DAZN - 24 May 2025
I haven't kept a round by round score here, but it feels like Essuman is winning this fight. He's won the last few rounds clearly, and Taylor looks out of gas, and struggling.
Re: Round-by-Round: Josh Taylor vs. Ekow Essuman | DAZN - 24 May 2025
I had it even up until the tenth. Now Ekow one up

These last 2 rounds have probably won it for Essuman.
Re: Round-by-Round: Josh Taylor vs. Ekow Essuman | DAZN - 24 May 2025
Don't worry judges probably had him winning 117-111 116-112
Re: Round-by-Round: Josh Taylor vs. Ekow Essuman | DAZN - 24 May 2025
Ekow by two rounds and probably getting jobbed tonight ![[icon_e_sad.gif] :verysad:](./images/smilies/icon_e_sad.gif)

Is Taylor just too small for 147? Or just finished?
I mean credit to them all.
He didn’t need to fight Essuman. But I’m glad he did.
Good fight for Essuman as well. Good win for him if he gets it.
