    If Prograis had reciprocated , just once, he'd have lost a point do it twice DQ loss & you know it

    Scottish fast twitch.. it's a well know trait.. Edinburgh muscle memory.. hard thing to switch off.. he's only had 16 fights though & it takes time to curtail these things.. watch braveheart.. Mel was still giving it a go after he'd been racked & castrated

    What he wants is simple. The people that are always crying dirty and dislike certain fighters to step up and call out Taylor for his dirty tactics, just like they do for other fighters they dislike. They have their bias blinders on though.

    I had no dog in this fight, I could care less who won or who loss. I do know that if I was in Prograis's positions, I would have thrown a rabbit punch to the back of his head when he turned around after throwing blatant combinations after the bell.

    Lastly, if anyone thinks I'm speaking about Ward specifically. i can't stand him as a fighter, I personally never enjoyed his fights so don't go there.

    Look at any Sugar Ray Leonard fight. He did it all the time and the excuse was 'fighter needs to defend himself at all times'.

    So stop with the BS.

    Lol there's alot of bitter ppl on this board, Taylor would of won even if they did deduct points. Prograis lost by too wide a margin for any points deductions to have had an effect.
    It was great fight and was competitive. A rematch would be good but let's not kid ourselves that prograis was winning the fight if there was a points deduction.

    I had no horse in this race.

    All I wished to see as with every fight, is the best man win.

    On this occasion the best man did not win.

    Instead the man who had the best friendship with the referee won.

    Had this fight taken place anywhere else away from that island, you know damn well Josh Taylor would have been rightly docked points for his conduct throughout the fight.

    You and his fanboys are free to rejoice in a corrupt victory that was the back of illegal blows after the bell when RP let his guard down.

    Prograis won 8 rounds and Taylor should have been docked a couple of points. 116-110 prograis, a convincing win.
