    I had it 114-114 but not disappointed with Taylor getting the decision. A few swing rounds in there. Great fight, maybe after Ramirez, Taylor will move up?

    I was on the edge of my seat throughout, and I only read the f***ing RBR.

    Eh. Prograis gets really overhyped, I'd always said that. Don't know if they're better wins than Gamboa. Remember Taylor went life and death with a guy Bud whooped 12-0 easily.

    Christ, Taylor's eyebrow is literally bulging out and splitting open as I'm looking at it.:eek:

    One? 114-114 just as bad as 117-112.

    Anyway, decent card - right winner.

    Prograis imo didn’t fight like he was in tip top shape. Josh did.

    Taylor would lose to almost every at 147. Porter, Spence, Crawford, Thurman, Pac, all beat him handily. He might beat Danny, but I favor Danny over him still. Danny is better than Prograis.

    Props to Taylor, he gritted his teeth and did what he had to do. He outworked him and out muscled him. He didn't fold. His facial expression when he took those body shots was one of discomfort, but he always clinched or worked through it. Good stuff.

    How could you possibly give that to prograis, I like prograis but he was beaten quite comfortably.

    I had it even after 10, then Prograis winning the last 2.

    I thought Prograis was done in round 10. He did brilliantly to come back and win the last 2. In the end I had Taylor by 1.

    Massive respect to both fighters for a great effort. Shame it was bit spoilt by a stupid 117-112 scorecard.

    Well done Josh - a very hard and well earned win.

    It will be interesting to see if Josh will stay at 140 and pursue a Ramirez bout.
