    Good fight. Taylor wins. Too many tools in the shed.

    Got Taylor in a War. Might be in Taylor's best interest to box a bit more.

    Taylor wins! Would have been nice to see Prograis fight more a live body, then him and Taylor could have a big rematch.

    I got Taylor in a great fight. One round of action in 19 months is a concern though, especially considering it's over in JCR's backyard so to speak where his chances of losing via hook or crook are much higher. JCR is really good but many feel he lost to both Postol and Zepeda so Taylor should start as a firm favourite albeit the home advantage for JCR will even it up a bit.

    Superb fight against the # 1 (Taylor) and #3 (Ramirez) fighters at 140.

    While I like Ramirez's engine, grit, and aggression, I believe Taylor is the more athletic and gifted of the two. I also think the Scot's skills are sharper.

    If past history is any judge, Ramirez will endeavor to turn the fight into a war of attrition, but he might find the going--particularly in the trenches--much tougher than he'd bargained for. Taylor is terrific in a phone booth.

    Note: I consider Prograis the #2 at 140lbs.

    Also! I hope the winner stays at 140. ****ing tired of everyone just jumping from one weight class to another.
    Would be badass to see a unified champ reign for a while.
