    Taylor isn't throwing enough, and Essuman is starting to take over.

    Taylor needs to step it up big time.

    Ekow looks like he could box at this pace for 24 rounds.

    Essuman’s volume is increasing and he seems to be pushing Taylor back now. Taylor is noticeably fading.

    Essuman tends to come out strong late on in fights Taylor is in trouble.

    I don’t think Taylor has enough left to compete at the top level, especially at welterweight.

    I also think a fortunate series of opponents who happened to have the belts at the time, led him to developing a much higher rating and reputation amongst fans because he didn’t have to beat particularly elite guys to become undisputed.

    Quiet first half, then heats up, Ekow defending better and starting to walk him down, looping in some nasty head shots. Josh stunned slightly. Some of these are jarring. Ekow going to the body.

    4-4. Another Essuman round on my card. Volume and landed the bigger shots. Essuman has cardio for days, the opposite can be said for Josh Taylor who's blowing out his ass. No stupid mistakes from Essuman, just basic boxing: 1-2s, 1-2-left hook the body, stalking Taylor and roughing him up.
