    Italian tv speaker presented Taylor as an "american boxing legend" and Abraham as "the best middle weight there is". So what? Taylor kept pushing that useless jab on Abraham gloves all night long; yes, he kept Abraham at distance but he did nothing to win; Taylor's career is over, i cannot imagine how he could have beat Hopkins. On the other side Abraham was little more of an amateur fighter.
    Really poor boxing show. I told some friends that are not boxing fan to take a look at the fight but i would have not.
    Do you still think super-six is a good idea?

    The point is that the super-six turnament if presented to an european attendance of non boxing fans as the non-plus-ultra in boxing. You realy think the fight was a good one?

    Well I can see how us Hardcore fans can get annoyed at the BS the commentators will try to pass off to the casual fans or people who are just attending and know nothing about the sport.

    As far as the fight goes, I didn't think it was anything special but it certainly wasn't a snoozefest by any means and ended with a brutal KO.

    This fight was not boring in my book. Not at all.

    What kind of fight do you expect? It's boxing, not a ballett performance or a beaty contest.

    AA's style is not nice to watch, but JT made enough attempts to get past AA's defense to make the fight entertaining. And there were seveal highlights in it, the heavy hits in rounds 9&12 not the only ones.
