    Taylor:1,2
    Ramirez:3,4,

    Key fourth. Fourth is so often key. JOsh isn't pushing so much with that jab any more, fanyin the trailing left though; feints a left lands a good right, and fires another trailing right, they bump up inside and for the first time Ramirez emerges from the clinch with the better shots. The ropes aren't working for Josh. Ramirez is throwing good body shots when he gets there. That's settled now - the ropes belong to Rameriz. Midway point of the round and the round belongs to him too, Josh has it all to do. Good counter left inside, Rmairez turns his back and Josh hits him, Rmariez looks unhappy but it was a silly move. Josh gets his final warning for pushing Rmariez down - Rmariez is RIGHT back to the fight as soon as the referee is finished. Good counter right tot he gut from Josh, another - this round is tin the balance. Ramirez hits him to the ropes though and Rmariez takes over optically - he has the round now with twenty seconds remaining.

    All square.

    That was a beautiful knifing right jab on the face to disguise the big can opener left whipped around with lightning speed into Ramírez's temple. Quickness and being a lefty, at this level, will always provide disadvantages (if not insurmountable obstacles), even for great opponents.

    Ramírez rallied hard late in the fourth but a couple of zinger lefts off the hip scored flush for Taylor, securing it for him I think. 39-37.

    Everytime Taylor goes to tie up he drives his right shoulder into Ramirez's face

    Taylor I feel is fighting Raimrez's fight right now.

    Ramirez looks stronger in the clinch to me, so Josh needs to keep it at range

    Taylor came back strong in the fourth and showed be can be a bully as well. Great fight so far. He caught Ramirez with some good shots. Ramirez took them well but those body shots take a toll.
