    I think Taylor's style is best against the boxer/puncher type of fighter rather than the swarmer/slugger type.

    I would give the edge to Mugabi, probably by stoppage.

    I was being sarcastic, Brooklyn1550. Read the previous posts.

    What good fighter did Mugabi ever defeat? He got knocked out whenever he faced anyone with talent.

    Now here's a good post! Exactly right! At least Taylor beat a few peeps. Mugabi was unbelievable knocking out cardboard cutouts, but when a decent live one was subbed the wind soon left the sails. Much much more myth than substance, a great effort against Hagler gets him way too much milage.
