Over 12 rounds for The World Middleweight Championship who wins? Bad Intentions or The Blade?

Taylor would be too slick for the hard hitting but one dimensional Barkley. Taylor by UD by about 117-112.

Taylor isn't slick at all imo.

He fights like a less accurate, sloppier Frank Tate.A basic box-fighter that is only getting hype because of the lack of talent at 160.

having said that, he could probably still edge Barkley in a close bout.

Well whether you think he lost all 3 fights or not, the 2 vs Hopkins and the other with Wright were very close, and those guys are way out ahead of Barkley in terms of talent. Put that up against Barkley's poor defense, and I think it's a clear win for Taylor.
