    It does.

    But you gotta realize Saulerland is a lot more limited promoter than DiBella.

    When they are head 2 head resumes don't fight fo them.

    **SIGH**

    Level of opposition is directly proportionate to your experience level, no?

    Ahhhhhhhh.........

    When they are there in the ring what they do there matters.Taylor having wins over Hopkins and thinking(knowing) Abe would be 0-6 against his opposition ain't gonna help him.

    Abraham starting notoriously slow will.

    Here is some food for thought,some discussions about JT's career on another forum copy pasted by yourstruly:

    I felt the 2 fights he got an official loss in were 2 fights he should have won against tough but limited fighters. Don't get me wrong Froch and Pavlik are tough as hell but I think their a bit limited if I may say myself in my opinion. Care to disagree? I think Jermaine Taylor is an underachiever and its a real ashame. The froch fight was really bad for him, I had him winning pretty clearly before he got stopped. Froch needed a knockout in the 12th round or he would have loss on my score-card. Despite Taylor losing to froch, froch looked very limited even more so then Pavlik in my opinion. Pavlik atleast attempted to block Taylors punches, most of Taylors punches were getting through sloppy Frochs guard.

    Most disappointing fighter since Zab Judah.

    There is no good reason for Froch to have a W next to Jermain's name. Taylor seems to fall short in his grueling fights with tough fighters, which is a big set back. He was also pretty disapointing as champion, barely getting by people he should have had very little trouble with.

    he could've dominated Pavlik and Froch to UD's if he didnt have stamina and decision making problems

    I think he benefited a lot from HBO priming him up to be their next boxing icon when he got away with the W against Hopkins in the first fight.

    .......:think.....some I agree with.

    is it because he's not a 'slick' fighter?

    Taylor was in the middle of the ring after the Froch fight asking for a rematch. I don't think he was affected nearly as much as he was by the Pavlik fight. I think he is as good as he was coming out of the first Pavlik fight. Looked good in the second Pavlik fight and all but 14 seconds against Froch. I won't say JT is ruined.:bart

    :yep

    I like the guy but he was an HBO hype guy. I'm glad Pavlik starched him.
