He is adamant on that he is knocking Regis Prograis out. That is his only answer to any reporters question. I hope he is not trying to rattle Prograis because he is coming off that he himself is rattled. This content is protected
Taylor is a bit nasty and a bully, but likes to get righteous and portray his opponent as the bad guy. He's a snake.
Nelson and Spencer both saying or at least hinting that Prograis has been struggling to get down to weight this week............
2 inch height difference listed, looks closer to 4. No way Prograis is 5’8. This is why you can never trust boxrec.
I heard Nelson mention that one of them were struggling but didn’t name name. Where are you getting info it’s Regis?
Davies then responded saying well it's quite obvious who it will be talking about Taylor due to the size and then spencer responded with Hmmm not necessarily.. Davies then says so it's Prograis then to which Spencer says nothing and gives him a wee smile and look of acknowledgment
Taylor is a real skilled boxer comes across as a complete twat, and possibly overcompensating for nerves? Its weird he keeps acting like he has Regis shook when Regis is acting pretty much like its another fight, and every fight matters. Hope there are no weight dramas or anything, very excited about this fight and unsure who to back - but would be pleased to see Prograis put a bit of hurt on Taylor.
I think Rougarou probably weighs more on fight night than Taylor does. He was fighting up at 69kgs (152lbs) in the amateurs in 2011 and 2012, whereas Taylor was down at 60kgs (132lbs) back then before moving up to 64kgs (141lbs) in 2013. And Rougrou has said numerous times in the past that he's a big 140 pounder and that he's only going to hang around at 140 for 1 or 2 more fights. So he's obviously alluding to weight. “He’s been hit by some big punchers, but I’m a big puncher and I’m accurate. At the same time, I’m a big 140 and at the same time, he’s not going to hit me. He’s not going to hit me with that stuff.” -- Rougarou Granted this is a couple of years ago and he's likely coming in heavier now, but he only came in at 149 despite weighing 2lbs over the JWW limit. Terry Crawfy was coming in as high as 153 when he was down at 135 and 157 up at 140 This content is protected
