    Agree on a lot of levels.

    When the primary topic of the fight isn't "who wins" but rather "I hope so-and-so doesn't get seriously hurt" when one of the fighters is holding some trinket it's not a fight worth making.

    Terrible matchmaking. Prime Taylor would do a job on him but at this stage, he's probably just there to receive some brain damage and move along. Power and accuracy are virtually the only things that keep Quillin alive. Luckily for him, he has plenty of both but he lacks in all other departments badly.

    I fear for what would happen when JT gasses, although I don't think it'll go that long.

    Quillin's workrate is hardly above Kevin Johnson's, dude. If you keep pressuring him like Hassan N'Jikam, you have a good shot at winning provided that you have a good punch resistance because Quilling is accurate and will definitely hit you and he will probably hit you damn hard.

    His work rate his terrible. And his stamina probably sucks aswell given his lack of tough fights that go the distance.

    In terms of hand speed and power few and middleweight can match him.


    Again in talking physical attributes. Quillin is gonna struggle against skilled boxers who he can't put away early like e did against NDam.

    Never said any different. Quillin will be a good strap holder but probably wouldnt advance past that level

    Quillin kills Taylor at this point, possibly literally. I don't wanna see it. I've never been a Taylor fan, but I really wish he stayed retired. He has NOTHING left, and he's gonna get hurt.

    Prime Taylor beats the crap outta Quillin. Even though Taylor was VERY overrated in his prime, Quillin is garbage.

    I could actually see a scenario where Taylor does better than expected. Quillin does not particularly like jabs and doesn't have the greatest stamina and workrate in the world either. Unfortunately, at best this means Taylor might be competitive for a bit longer than anticipated, but nothing more.
     
  15. I feel like the first right hand Quillin lands flush will be the end of JT's career.
