    I cant believe he's going to fight again in the same weight. And even worse if he's going to do it vs a fighter different from caterall. LOL.

    Strange situation.

    Clearly a duck, but Zeppy is a scary dude and might KO him. I'd take Zeppy to KO Jack too, so I dunno...

    I thought it was a robbery. I know many here would disagree, but that's what I saw.

    If the identities of the fighters and their respective performances that night were switched, who would've got the decision? Taylor and it wouldn't have been close.

    Taylor is a massive success story and he's earned his status on the top ten list, but he has a big question mark around him now. Maybe two to be honest as there was less than the width of a cigarette paper between him and Prograis and he had home advantage that night.

    I feel for Catterall. He did everything right and got jibbed. This is a dirty business and we all know it.

    No, Fury waiting to see who the winner of Usyk vs AJ is the biggest duck. If Usyk wins against AJ he retires

    Taylor's reputation has been damaged and he doesn't seem to want to fix that
    he's a dick and it's a duck

    He could be dead and they'd still find reasons to hate him every day.

    Yep, pretty obvious duck at this point. Had he moved up this wouldn’t be an issue (or as much of an issue) but he made a big song and dance about being drained and now fights at exactly the same weight. His tremendous self-belief has turned into delusion and arrogance at this point, and it’ll be his downfall if he doesn’t face up to it.
