    Catterall is closer to Lewis Ritson's level than Taylor's. This will be a bloodbath.

    Genuinely thought Catterall was rattled, Taylor has got him intimidated. Taylor is a nasty little sod come fight time, I think he even had Nelson on the back foot with his intense aggression.

    I'll look forward to seeing this, but I think Taylor is right, he's a level above.

    Taylor almost caused a riot with about 50 Mexicans after the weigh in of his last fight so I doubt it’s an act.

    Taylor definitely isn't acting with the tough guy act, he's just a wee scheme boy who can fight like **** and loves a fight.
    He'll destroy Catterall, can't see Catterall laying a glove on him, it'll be one sided beatdown.

    I'm within walking distance of the hydro, I've been to all Taylor's fights there, it's cracking venue for boxing, not going to this one though.

    Everyone knows how good he is and appreciates him, but a lot of folk don't like the 'ned' side to him tbf. As I say, he's just a scheme boy who can fight, very good.
    I like the dig and vicious side of him,would much rather him being a horrible ******* than mr nice like Ricky Burns.

    He is no different to the average working class guy u would find in the likes of Pollok, darnley etc. And a step up from the likes of possil.

    Its not an act guys, this how we working class from here are around guys we don't like, we are brand new and very welcoming to those we like, but if ur a dik this is exactly how we would normally act!

    Anyone know how ticket sales are going for this? Really hoping he gets close to a full house and gets a following his talent deserves.it would be a huge upset if he lost this so hopefully he's in the zone fight night.

    exactly how I seen it. Catterall didn't like it and think realises Taylor is levels above

    good to see a few Scots post on here haha. Hopefully he starts to get more coverage. Tbf never had a issue with Ricky just never was at Taylor level and not that exciting.
    Diff is Taylor got ability to go very high world level is exciting to watch technically and has nasty streak he wants win every fight ko plus look resume considering amount fights too many in this sport want easy fights most money and avoid other fighters like plague
