Taylor was always massively overrated

    Don't get me started on that other PBC/Showtime smoke and mirrors creation Benavidez

    Gigantic 168 pounder
    2nd highest LHW fight night weight of all time in just his 2nd fight at the weight

    Washed career 154/160 Lemieux
    Career 154/160 Boo Boo who forged a career fighting binmen
    Old Dirrell who was bang average even in his prime
    Washed shadow of Gvozdyk who only turned up for the payday
    Morrell who'd only had 11 fights against binmen and arguably lost to Hot Rod

    Plant who is soft chinned and his claim to fame is beating Uzecat who lost to 21-5 Lonnie B later that year, being the only man Clenelo has knocked out in aeons and nearly getting sparked out early in his last fight by a club fighter

    PBC/Showtime love feeding their stars binmen, dragging fighters up in weight for them, having them fighting much naturally smaller fighters who are career fighters at lower weights, and raiding care homes and graveyards

    Mikey, Spence, Twink, Benavidez, Broner etc.

    ''Taylor's wins have aged badly''?

    Go take a look at how Crawford's wins have aged since he fought them.

    Overrated here by the usual suspects. Good fighter but nothing special.

    More irony. Taylor was a no nonsense fighter always in hard fights no tune ups achieved more than most in less than 20 fights. I'll leave the sucking to you and your mates.

    It takes more than just a good fighter to win a tournament like the WBSS and unify a whole division in less than 20 fights. He accomplished a lot more than your boy Spence who the usual suspects thought was special.

    Spence was light years better than Taylor. Figures the usual suspects would try and downplay a clearly superior fighter with a better resume.

    Taylor is more accomplished than Spence. Taylor beat prime undefeated fighters most of Spence's best wins were against washed opponents. Typical of the usual suspects to say that Taylor was not special.
