Comfortably, I'd think

handsofstone wrote: ↑02 Dec 2017, 19:55 Really good tussle that, I had Yigit a comfortable 118-112 winner but it was a lot more competitive than that , there is a lot of fighters who are reliant on one hand but no more so than Hughes who really has a disadvantage with his shorter and less mobile right hand, he makes up for it though with an iron will and granite chin, he really digs they left hooks into the body and he has a decent jab too when he uses it, he works tirelessly and makes his opponents work for their openings

Yigit just had that little bit more class though to get the last say in most rounds and had the better punch variety which proved key, he improved as the fight went on, showed excitement by trying to get Hughes out of there as well, he's a tidy southpaw with grit but Taylor will dismantle him in 5 rounds

Not likely to happen though unless they pay him. Very clever from yigit either way!

Yigit looked decent though. I'd still like to see Taylor fight him. Yigit is better than anyone Taylor has fought.

Yigit better than Vazquez? Don't think so tbh. I think Taylor will have an easier time against Yigit than he did against Vazquez. Looks as if it'll be happening next so we'll find out soon enough.

I'd also fancy Davies against Yigit as well.

Davies is no good.

I've been saying this since that Scarpa fight a year ago. Very careful matchmaking for him now he would only fight Yigit if a world title was on the line.

He's decent. Definitely has some talent there to work with. There's a few guys out there domestically at 140 that wouldn't fancy it with him.

Does make a lot of silly mistakes though.
