    "Ya Baldy ****" lol

    Good on Taylor

    These clowns that talk big on Twitter yet wouldn't say boo to a goose face to face deserve to be pulled up.

    Taylor is a class act and love his spitefulness. Hoping for a great fight this weekend with Taylor leaving with all the marbles.

    To be fair that manager whatever he is was being a bit of a p***k.
    When JT was going on stage for the stare off he is going 'wo, wo, wo, wo, wo wait..' that's a world champ there dude don't 'wo, wo' him.
    JT knows he needs a bit of needle, a reason to be pissed off to perform.. he often just creates it near fight time and comes across a bit of k**b, he knows what he needs to do though to win.

    All Josh is doing is what most of us would or would like to do and confront the social media/internet tough guys in person, we all know the type and there's plenty on these forums especially those who repeatedly get perma banned and return under alt accounts - Fearless aggressive hard men behind a keyboard, in real life they look like the Milkybar kid.

    Nah I’m not for boxers/fighters go at civilians like this unless it’s totally warranted (i.e. a personal insult or assault etc).

    What is Taylor trying to prove starting on a guy like that.

    I like Taylor as a fighter and especially the spite he brings to the ring. But we didn’t hear a PEEP out of his mouth when Chisora basically ridiculed both Taylor and Prograis in their presence at the press conference when he threw a tantrum. If I remember correctly Taylor didn’t say a word while Prograis actually piped up and tried to explain to Chisora why they were the main event.

    I didn't see anything in the video to have an opinion one way or another. What was it ? Was that Ramirez' manager or a "twitter troll" ?

    It looks like nothing to me anyway. You'll see more aggro from grandmas in a queue for the tills at Tesco. I'm no hard man, but if that's Josh Taylor being "fiery" , I wouldn't even know it. He seemed a bit annoyed and called someone "baldy". No need to make a melodrama of it.

    Most people just seem to leave Chisora alone to do his lame crazy man act, not a great example..
    The guys just getting a bit hyped up with people around Ramirez close to fight night, big deal.. not as if he is threatening random people in the hotel, it has all been pretty harmless you delicate flowers.

    Taylor needs to calm down. He's done worse on Twitter if I'm not mistaken, so should just focus on the fight.

    Ramirez seems like a top bloke, won't take pleasure in watching him get beat compared to the likes of two tanks

    Sick of hearing all the faux outrage and heartbreak over this fight not being shown by any of the UK big broadcasters. Maybe Taylor should work on being more of a likeable guy rather than being a horrible little racist runt with a potty mouth.

    He's got the Carl Frampton Syndrome imo. He may be a talent in the ring but he's got a massive chip on his shoulder and thinks the world owes him everything.

    Rather support someone like Scott Quigg over foul mouthed prats like Frampton and Taylor.
