    The hook, casued him to reflexivly try to return to guard, while AA was in the middle of a combo...the opening was only there for half a second, , and Taylor had plans to lauch the right..... that he had to launch...if he was going to KO AA. He had to....and as they say, one punch in boxing against AA can change everything.

    It should be a great fight Kessler vs AA.

    You gotta feel bad for Taylor.

    He just doesn't have the stamina to go the full twelve, but the man is all heart and a real nice guy. A real shame his career has taken a turn for the worse.

    I like JT and he is a respectable person, but he is a gatekeeper if he continues his career.

    I know he doesn't want to leave the sport on his back but he's risking a lot.

    :lol: I've said it before and I got labeled a JT basher. But he needs to hang it up. Dont fight on. Give it up.

    wasn't there a topic on here maybe 2-3 weeks predicting Taylor to win the whole thing?

    forget the fact that he gasses

    he just doesn't fight smart enough to win.

    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.
