    Taylor is a fraud.
    Dirty and foul mouthed.
    One of the worst individuals i ever saw in boxing.
    He will get found out and Lopez can be that man.

    Legit win? Or are you banking on the US judges to get their man over the line?

    No judges will be needed. Taylor will take the fight out of their hands.

    Surely he knows he has to after what happened to Loma I fear this may play into Lopez hands if Taylor is more aggressive but he needs to go for it IMO

    Wait really? U thinking of Josh Taylor or confusing the 2 fighters? This must be a troll post, Josh won't even be the third worst individual on the stage at the conference.

    Taylor is extremelly overrated here. And he is no Sándor, Taylor enjoys the fight and exchanging punches. He's not a runner at all and, even if he wants to run, I doubt he can do it because his temper would betray him.

    I swore in Sándor's fight to never give him credit again, but I will say Teo. I hope this mofo doesnt let me down again. ¬¬

    For whatever reason I have a softspot for that idiot with zero ring IQ and with a ******ed father.

    Previously I said Lopez as I think at his best he is the better fighter but I think Taylor will probably grind out an ugly win. Lopez is too inconsistent, relies too much on his natural athleticism. Taylor in contrast doesn't have the talent of Lopez but he has size and the ability to perform when needed for the most part and will just want it more and in those tough moments that grit and ability to dig deeper will see him come out ahead. Taylor by decision.

    You nailed it. I think exactly the same. The only difference is that I will give that oportunity to Teo (again). God knows why, I dont.

    Taylor the better fighter. Aside from Lopez’s power-which has not seemed to translate to 140- he is pretty basic.

    Feel Teo’s style could be all wrong for Taylor. It will go the distance and it will be close.
