    Would pay good money to see someone faceplant K.O Mora or beat him into retirement. Give him GGG or lemieux and smoger as ref, get him stuck on the ropes and just smash pulverize his face in.

    Golovkin would grant your wish, but Mora would school Lemieux.

    I think Jermain is so far down the slide his feet are already in the sandpit at the bottom. By no means am I a fan of Mora but I think he beats Jermain at this stage. Realistically is Jermain even gonna make it to the ring with his out the ring antics?

    Cool. Either way I look forward to seeing Ndam in the mix.

    I think he knocks Taylor out and widely outpoints Mora.

    (his athleticism is a match for prime Taylor's, as is his speed, and Taylor has diminished in those areas too much to deal with such a fresh and strong opponent ...and his movement-based style won't make him play into Mora's hands - to get snatched, tentacled, and countered - like a lot of guys' do...)

    is Mora advised by Haymon also?

    this should be on nickelodian, not espn2.

    It'll probably go past 5 rounds, so I like Mora to win.
    Maybe by stoppage after JT runs out of gas

    Taylor wont be pressuring Mora like Vera did.
    Mora by decision.

    1st Al Haymon instructed him to shoot his cousin to duck GGG and now he's fighting Mora?
    Disgraceful :-(

    Jermain Taylor isn't quite as bad off as most people seem to think he is, fine he had a couple of tune up fights against losers like Munoz and Candelo. But he stopped Nicklow in 8 something Murata couldn't do last week, and is so far the only guy to beat Caleb Truax who stopped Don George quicker than Adonis Stevenson did, even though Truax dropped him once he still looked very good in that match. Truax isn't very good but he's average.
    As far as the Soliman match goes, he should be given more credit for that win, Soliman had just defeated Sturmx2, which isn't that easy to do especially as convincingly as he did in the second fight. Jermain was aided by Soliman's leg giving out which Taylor contributed to, but he still looked okay fighting someone as brutally awkward as Sam, Taylor isn't as fragile as most seem to think he is.

    I'd give him a decent chance to beat Mora, by a close decision.

    For anyone thinking Mora wins by KO get over it, it won't happen.
