    Jermaine Taylor had the Froch fight in the bag when he was brutally knocked out in the last round and in his next fight with Abraham he seemed different. Taylor who is known as a fast starter never got started. Psychological damage from Froch?

    When Froch beat him, I think it reinforced the doubts that were lingering from the Pavlik fights. JT always gasses. Love the guy, but it is what it is.

    No i think taylor had just come to the end of a good career. Some boxers can stay in the game longer than others but i think it was more Pavlik that done him but its hard to tell. Maybe he would of beat Pavlik if he had fought him earlier in his career before Hopkins this game is all about timeing... I enjoyed watching Taylor in his prime....

    You could even make an argument that Hopkins ruined him. After the Hopkins fights, he was never the same guy.

    +1. Taylor had his run. 160 was more suited for him. Prime Taylor vs Martinez at 160 is a fight I like to see.

    I think Pavlik , Froch and Abraham have played a role in ruining him.
