    While it being extremely far fedged here, "mind games" in general are extremely overrated by some and often confused with weird or childish behavior.

    Taylor came across as a pompous jerk before the Catterall fight.

    loses the fight
    makes excuses
    plays victim
    then laughs when someone elses sees injustice
    but ran to high coutts for whatever outcome he was looking for
    When his cards weren't stacked
    pot kettle
    dropped loads in my estimation the ttt

    He will fail at 147. He loses to Ortiz, Boots, Spence & Crawford. Even "Shot-Time" Thurnan wrecks him. Barrios might even beat him (now that he's moved up). So if moves up, it won't take long for him to be fully exposed.

    I am not a fan of either Castano or Jermell Charlo. I rate Jermell coach highly yes but I didd not favour either guy. It was really good tough fight.

    I consider someone who is a welterweight to be a welterweight. A guy who slowly added weight over 10 years prior to fighting there doesn't count. Surely you don't think Mayweather was actually the same size as guys like Margarito, Williams, Cotto or De La Hoya?

    Explain how Cotto is a more natural welterweight than Mayweather please. Honestly curious how you came to that conclusion. Same with 6'2 Paul Williams. How does he fall in line with your logic?

    Surely you don't believe competing at the very top level at 147 for 10 years is irrelevant in this discussion. I mean anyone could understand what your getting at but I've got to say your point is rather obtuse. While Mayweather was a welterweight, he was a welterweight. It's as simple as that
