    Thanks

    Yeah I think so. JT is one of the few fighters I like I would consider a weight bully but it's not that he started out like that it's more of a recent thing since hooking up with his new team in his last few fights. He's outgrown the weight and he looked skeletal and sickly at the weigh in. Benavidez is another one but he rehydrated like 25 pounds after one of his fights which is an obscene amount. JT is like about 16-17lbs

    Yet he's frequently near impossible to hit. Day day at the office he had an off performance, get over it.

    Josh Taylor looked stale af. But there's a fair argument to be made he won.

    Props to Catterall for his performance, but I don't think he beats the guys Taylor has fought in Prograis and Ramirez

    It sounds very much like an insult but I'm afraid it's not one I'm familiar with

    Subjective and vantage point. I was there, thought Taylor done enough or should I say Catterall didn't do enough last few rounds. Close fight

    Wrote it wrong. I meant slapper because of priding yourself on slapping people.

    The whole weight bullying argument has been shattered tonght. It doesn't give an advantage and never did.
    If you have out grown the weight or are too big for the weight , its a disadvantage , not an advantage.

    You're one of , if not the biggest cry babies about weight bullies on this forum bit you never uttered a word about it whenTaylor stepped on the scales looking like a white walker.
    I agre the weight drain effected Tayor tonoght , but you can;t blame Catteral for it. He won the fight regardless

    No it hasn't you absolutely walking helmet. Weight bullying is more often than not a significant advantage - better punch resistance against smaller fighters + your power size has more of an effect on the smaller guy. You're also purely attributing Josh Taylor poor performance on making weight which may not be the case and may be other factors

    I'll be honest, haven't watched it past round 2, I'm just going based off the consensus.

    If ESPN+ has a stream I'll watch it later tonight.
