    What's up with this guy at the moment?

    He's gone from being a fan favourite to being super salty after getting a GIFT of a decision.

    I
    've always liked him but at this point he should just sort out what he's doing about his belts/moving up and get in the ring as quickly as possible.

    He has always been a salty personality though.

    Loved his rise up the ranks but he's turning into a cupid stunt lately

    he's not handling that controversial "win" very well. I'm thinking if it haunts him so much, why not run it back ASAP? Like what floyd did with castillo and maidana.

    He should rematch really to put it to bed but probably won't

    Taylor needs to give this guy a rematch. I’m a Taylor fan but he LOST that fight. This kind of chirping is beneath a champion especially one who was gifted a decision in his last fight. Shades of Canelo judging in this one.

    Floyd accepted the flaws of the first fights to himself. Never publicly stated, but deep down he knew there was questions in those fights. Floyd wanted to leave no doubts and correct it. Taylor hasn’t accepted what he was given and doesn’t have the confidence to come back and leave no doubt.

    The same personality traits that helped him excel are becoming his downfall right now. He needs to reach into himself, understand he made mistakes, rectify them and prove it in a rematch.
