The last score card 117-111 for spinks// Jermaine Taylor's lost and Calzaghe will massacre him if J.T wants it

I told everyone on yahoo I still have the answers in my questions asked on answers. I told every that Taylor would have trouble fighting Spinks but no one listened. Taylor showed tonight that he has no technical skills and will get destroyed by a much faster Calzaghe, Delahoya or even a Mayweather. what people cant deny about mayweather is that he is much much much. im sorry did i say much much more accurate than a spinks who doesnt even touch his apponent and gave jermaine trouble. the last score card had the fight 117 to 111 for spinks which the annoncer read it wrong. Taylor did press the fight but he couldnt catch spinks. spinks came for a payday regardless of what he did he was going to loose. everyone new that jermaine was much bigger and was going to back spinks up. so do you agree or dissagre. if you do dissagre please answer my next question on yahoo also.

Update:

And Taylor is 6ft2 so he can fight a few pounds and fight calzaghe if he wants it

    i agree that Joe would school jt. his hands are fast and he has tremendous stamina and he is fairly elusive. you and i will never see eye to eye on Floyd but hey we all like who we like so no biggie there. i would rather see kessler and jt go at it. there is not enough exposure for that guy and i think he is great and would stomp allot of paper fighters out there. anyway Joe and jt would be a good fight too.

    You are high. First DLH had no business going up to try to mess with Hopkins and you saw what happened. DLH would not last with jt he is not that fast not at that weight. Mayweather going up to 154 was a joke in its self. DLH had to chase Floyd around all night to even make a fight. The thought of Floyd at 160 is a joke. Little lone vs JT. Now Calzaghe is the real deal but the reality is he has not fought anybody of note. I'm not so sure Joe is that much faster then JT i think that fight goes to joe if its a slug fest, he is abetter fighter. But if its a snore fest like JT's last 4 fights where he looks afraid to get hit; who knows how a fight like that gets scored when 2 guys throw 20 punches around.

    JT needs to put some more cash in the bank and let the fight with Calzaghe build. Floyd should fight Mosely and Cotto. The bottom line is Floyd will never be exciting at 154. JT needs to become exciting again to sell the Calzaghe fight because that fight is way to dangerous not to be a huge payday.

    Anyone that thinks spinks won is out of their mind.

    Taylor is the champ right?

    did spinks, decisively, and clearly BEAT the champ? no.

    Spinks did exactly was Floyd Mayweather Jr. did against Oscar. the SAME THING. give a punch....run away. the only difference is taylor did storm in for a flurry of punches like oscar did.

    There is no way taylor lost last night. look at the other 2 judges scorecards...they werent even close to that...they were both for taylor. 117-111 is a bit much dont you think?

    either that judge is honestly a moron OR he was paid off.

    There is no way spinks won that fight. Actually it wasnt much of a fight but he didnt beat the champ...same way mayweather didnt beat oscar...

    Spinks didnt give Taylor trouble....how the heck did you come to that conclusion?

    Spinks just ran around the ring making his "punching noises" and Taylor knew not to wear himself out.

    Should Taylor have gone in the ring with a lasso so he could catch spinks??

    Spinks ran because he was scared of Taylor. You people are giving spinks credit for the fight even though he is a chicken who ran away the whole night. You could even here spinks trainer telling him how to stay away from Taylor.

    Boxing is boxing.....and running is running. Spinks should go home with his tail tucked.....he made for the pitiful fight.

    Spinks in my eyes won the fight, I challenge anyone to score it,

    As for Joe Calzaghe, at the minute he would beat Taylor, but Joe couldnt get down to middleweight,

    I think Taylor will take Calzage. Guys like Spinks and Wright make for terrible fights. They are defesive fighters.

  • 1 decade ago

    I agree Taylor sucks, fans dont like him, HBO loves him, hes selfish and boring, you saw his comments its ALL ABOUT THE MONEY.

    He needs a PR person to help him and make sure he doesnt say stupid things like this. His first fight with anyone you mentioned would end up in him losing a decision or being KTFO.
