Is Josh Taylor the real deal after exposing hype job OD? How do you think he does at world level?

Real deal... But no way in hell is he ready for Crawford yet.. Would like see him have 2-3 more fights(at least) at British-European level before making the leap to the world stage. Remember he only has 10 fights.. A fight with Burns would be a good step up, a good sell and likely not too much of a step up at this point.

 

He's in the ideal division cause once Crawford moves up in weight all the belts will be available, he should be able to pick up one pretty quick after that.

 

Yeah this was a fight with two talented and undefeated high level prospects... Public opinion was divided almost down the middle, of course some people are going to start saying that wasn't the case. But yeah... Great fight for British boxing and to some extent boxing as a whole. Top prospect vs. top prospect fights are a real treat these days.

 

If Ricky Burns can hold a title in that division, Davies can. Anybody can get a belt these days. Especially if you're British.

 

Looks the part to me.good luck to him

 

I like Taylor but its too soon to say! I like his skills and energy

 

Yeah, Davies looked slow, stiff and one-dimensional. Lonsdale belt is about the best he can hope for. Taylor looked good, but sloooooowww down on the Crawford stuff. He was able to dial it up in an an emotional fight in England against an Englishman he didn't like. What's he going to be able to do in Madison Square Garden on the undercard?
