    Jermain would school Green. No comparison. Taylor is a far superior fighter.
    I think Green would struggle to beat Jeff Lacy.

    Taylor is a fighter that has NO confidence, Green is a big puncher. End of story. Green by KO

    Taylor is leagues ahead of Green but he has tendancys to get off his game. This may be all Green needs.

    Taylor. Ward refused to fight in tournament if Bute were allowed in, so it had to be Green?

    I would go with Green. Every big puncher Taylor fights, he ends up getting knocked out.

    Even the current Taylor is a a couple of levels above Green. Green is a good fighter but he is at a second or third tier level, a good opponant for the elite to bash, a la Miranda. .

    Green would knock taylor clean out. The guy has very underrated punching power and he would feel very comfortable in there with JT.

    He beat Lacy so it obviously takes more than just power

    Yep. That is probably the right call.

    Jermain has never been a great boxer just a quality athlete. At this point he gets handled on points or stopped.
