    Taylor is not even close to being what Curry was.

    Curry had far too much talent.

    He's Zab. Former undisputed champions that can only go 4 rounds. He's nothing but a nice name on a resume

    Honestly I thought Taylor was better than Curry. Curry did not have the wins at the top that Taylor had. Taylor started off beating a great fighter. He just burned himself out. Tonight he had the fight won. He just lost his steam. Something is wrong with him as a fighter. That shouldn't have happened.

    That's a better comparison. From the get go with his highly questionable "victories" over Bernard Hopkins, and his bogus draw over Wright, I knew he wasn't what HBO wanted people to believe he was, or that their influence allowed him to become.

    Taylor is better than Zab Judah. He has a bit of a stamina problem. I would have to analyze the fight to get a better idea what happened. Froch must have been landing something for Taylor to wilt like that.

    Curry was in a whole different league to Taylor, he was a far superior fighter at his best

    I don't think so. Donald never beat a caliber of Hopkins. Curry was good, but the way he folded with Honeyghan and McCallum within a year of each other does not make him great. He was a very good fighter and on the night he beat McCrory he might have been tough for many fighters, but still he had a big flaw which was exposed by Honeyghan and McCallum.
