    Would love to see Taylor move up to 147, win a high profile fight, and then fight his hero (Pacquiao). Wouldn’t end well for Josh, though.

    Taylor has a better win than any of Crawford, Spence or Davis. Hell his 2nd and 3rd best wins are better than Gervontas best.

    He's ok but bud Crawford leaves him face down on the canvas and everyone knows it. Totally different levels.

    Taylor is B-B+. B- a bit harsh.

    I see that idiot Tank Davis is on twitter saying he is going to move up to 140 and KO Taylor.

    Yes why not. He is not a joke, but taking him very seriously will depend on his next very serious fights.

    Haye also said in another interview that he's seen Taylor do some ''ridiculous things'' behind closed doors

    If Haymon keeps freezing Crawford out at 147 he should go back down and fight Taylor.

    Taylor for me now is amongst the top 10 P4P.

    B, possibly, but B+ is knocking on the elites door which I don’t think Taylor is at. A - A- level guys are Cotto/JMM/Canelo/Bradley type, just below the A+ ATG types like floyd/Pac/Oscar/rjj types.
