    We boxing fans know protect yourself at all times but the 2nd KD was about as dirty as it gets. Bayliss had touched the fighters to break and Taylor threw the upper cut. I can't stand that ****.

    Isn't that the point though, as you say "you could argue Ramirez won 5 or 6" and yet all three judges gave him 6. Think about it. Those are some funny scorecards

    I'm glad Taylor won. Mexico's got enough successful fighters. Want more international interest in boxing.

    The 2nd knockdown was heavier, but the 1st was as good a counter as we will see all year - absolute peach.

    The 2nd shows Taylor's IQ and smarts - it's the fight game, and his inside game is just mean and borderline dirty at times, but it's incredibly effective.

    You could make that argument....

    You shut up. You don’t understand how fights are scored. This was a tough competitive fight. The knockdowns enabled Taylor to pull away. You gave Ramirez 1 round. God you are such a bloody fool it’s laughable. I am off to bed can’t be bothered with your crap.

    ESPN coverage is just an abomination, switching to some no-mark basketball game immediately post fight before any interviews.

    Taylor’s been sold out big time with the lack of mainstream coverage back in the UK. When he eventually boxes Crawford, Sky and BT will have their grubby paws out.

    It was VERY obvious. Bayless has become one of the worst referees.

    Like I said @McGrain rest easy. Everything was going to be alright.... at least by a nut whisker. Thank Christ for those two knockdowns.:lol:
