    Taylor can't beat Green, Ward, Andrade, or Dirrell, because they all fight a full 12 rounds. I like JT, one of my favorite boxers, but the guy doesn't want to put in the work to build up his stamina in the ring, so because of that I have to make him a club fighter on the level of Lacy. Hopefully JT retires and doesn't hurt himself.

    Thing is the Mexcian cats claim that Margo is mexican even though he was born in the states but moved to mexico as a young'in. Andrade did it the other way. Andrade moved to Cali as a baby and if Margo is mexican then Andrade is American, right??

    Nah Im just ****ing with, I dont care either way. you are were your at in my mind.

    ward for sure. i think he would beat all of the other americans in the division. he is just on another level than them. dirrell would give him the most trouble with his power but he would still lose on points.

    Well I guess that is true, but one is a mexcian american and one is just a mexican that lives in the States. One can become the President and one cant.

    I'm going by who is more proven

    Taylor
    Ward
    Green
    Dirrell

    Now Dirrell probably has more skills out of the bunch but he is the least proven. Even though Taylor has been in some tough losses he also has had pretty good wins. I'm not sure on Andrande situation but it appears he is born in Mexico and may have grew up on the states but If you want to add him you can place him below Taylor and ahead of Ward.

    Dirrell or Ward. Whoever has more heart, the better chin, and the better defense: that guy will be the future of the SMW division.

    Andre Ward is the real deal. His combination of skill and speed will make him a handful for anyone at 168.

    Green is very good, would hurt Ward. Taylor is probably the best as far as skills.

    Andre ward is the next real deal, taylor is done now unless he gets rid of that asthma which is impossible. I became a believer out of ward after tonight. Man this guy is the goods

    Why is Allan "I Got Beat Up By Emmett Linton" Green even part of this conversation?
