    Lost my money though, no KO. Felt close but not that close.

    Bayliss pissed again, outrageous.

    Taylor is really good and his win tonight was awesome, I think Bud wrecks him.

    Yeah, not one... but two 40 counts. It's amazing they didn't have a sniper set up in the rafters to take Josh out with a tranquilizer in the closing minute.:lol:

    Watch it again. He actually touched one of the fighters on the arm and then looked shocked when Taylor dropped Ramirez. Bayliss did a shitty job all the way around. He gave Ramirez too much time after each KD but also allowed Taylor to hold way too often and hit on the breaks.

    Big fan of Taylor, always have been but I think right now as it stands Crawrford would have too much for him. Let him have a couple of tune ups at 147 first.

    I mean, yeah. He had an all around horrendous fight.

    He was betwixt and between all fight. He’d break them on the clinch, then not. Kept inserting himself into the action. Then the fighters are practically tripping over him. Just a bad performance from him in general.

    I had it 8-4 for Taylor plus the two KDs and had Bayless not been as corrupt as sin he may well have taken JCR out of there after dropping him with that uppercut. But once again we had a world title fight in the US with all four officials being American and that **** has got to stop.

    Some weird ****, he probably "could have" taken a point away and didn't so I dunno, but that was ****ing bizarre those gigantic counts, and the second one, he did a gigantic count and didn't even let Josh have the yards, and he lectured him instead of just pushing him away. Very weird. But technically all in the modern book, so hey-ho. But it was frustrating to see.

    I will say "the ten count" is a thing of the past and doesn't really matter any more. But that was odd.

    If you substitute the word "generously" for arguably, I believe we would reach a consensus.

    A 6-6 scorecard reflects a serious lack of impartiality.

    I am scottish and a massive Taylor fan but I think Crawford is a bad match up for Taylor. Crawford would out point Taylor. Taylor is an exciting fighter in the same way pacman is but he has his flaws and a excellent defensive fighter like Crawford would edge out a victory. Still a great fight that would sell big

    Gentlemen, I am tired and emotional, good evening.
