    If Bute (or whoever) joined the tournament they'd only have 2 fights instead of 3 to get enough points to qualify for the semi-finals.

    Taylor getting KO'd in the last round of a fight he wasn't favoured to win in the first place isn't grounds enough to kick him out of the tournament.

    He has had too much and should be pulled out without question for his health

    I think he has been through too much and he is a shell at the moment, he has had a good career, and although he could still do something in this tournament, i think it is unlikely

    Wow, second time now getting KO'ed at the very end. Comments with what are you smoking due to picking him to win is not called for. I was hoping he would win. I would not be mad if he called it a day. He has a beautiful wife, kids, and money in the bank. Good luck to him if he chooses to stay or go. He has to watch out for his health after being stopped a few times now.

    I think if Taylor somehow digests his heavy KO loss tonight, he can still beat Dirrell or Ward. After all he didn't gas tonight and he showed that he still got good skills. But I don't see him beating Kessler or Froch.

    Everything about Taylor's body language through the later rds just indicated a KO was about to come but dam with 20 secs left in the 12th :patsch

    Taylor just couldn't unlock AA. There was nothing he could have done...

    The final hit was on the button.
