    Both terrible.

    Eric Morales on his death bed would KO them with a jab.

    It’s very close between them but I lean towards Katie Taylor. It’s not Shields’ fault but Lightweight was a lot more competitive in my opinion which gave Taylor greater chances to shine, whereas at the higher weights the depth is even lower.

    Taylor has some of the best footwork I have seen, her only downfall is that sometimes she fights a brawl when she doesn’t need to.

    Taylor for me. She was able to parlay her amateur success into becoming a beacon for women's boxing in a way Shields just hasn't been able to. That said, it's tighter than I initially thought.

    Shields and it's not even close. No controversial fights over here.

    Wouldn't say either are great. Not hard to topple a sport hardly anyone takes part in.
