    Ugh, Jermain really shouldn't be boxing anymore (for obvious, non-crimes-against-pugilism reasons).

    Reality is he had to survive against a club fighter last time out, got drilled in the 9th of a 10 rounder and had a bizarre post-fight interview afterwards. I think pain in the ass Mora takes this.

    If Taylor is even slightly bothered by Mora's punches, even if he gets the W, he's got to stop.

    This is the only result that can have a positive impact on Taylor's legacy. Beating Mora clearly on points would be neutral, no change. Losing or even struggling is a negative.

    I remember when Mora turned this fight down when Taylor was on top. Interesting fight, actually.

    Taylor will kick his ass IMO.

    Yeah, Mora signed to make $1 million for the fight, then pulled out when he found out the fight was going to be in Memphis, which he thought was too close to Little Rock. Taylor ended up fighting Cory Stinks instead.

    ...and that was 10x more entertaining than Taylor vs. Mora would have been. :lol:

    Why Wealth and not ESPN? Anyways, Taylor showed enough against Traux to convince me that he beats Mora by UD. After that, it'll be Taylor vs Quillin, all in order for Haymon to transfer Taylor's cred to Peter.

    What do you mean by Mora's crimes against pugilism exactly? I forgot all about the guy until now.
