Roy Jones Jr would IMO be the perfect coach for Shakur. Or as they say "another pair of eyes" to the training staff to add something offensively to Shakur's game. Either him or Freddy Roach, who is probably the best Boxing trainer ever when it comes to offense

Risky as hell

The scary thing about this is he's doing this against a much faster fighter with quicker hands. I think that's why it was so easy to counter Spence.

Thats the thing. people forget that for his dodgy chin gamboa had an insane Olympic record and was an absolute speed demon. Was a bit of a mini roy jones.

Taylor was just a matchup for Hop. Tall, rangey, and strong on the inside where Hop liked to do his dirty work.

Not that impressive simply because Elite Timing > >>> elite speed

Gamboa had faster hands than Bud, but Bud had quicker hands than Gamboa

Crawford's chin was out there just like Gamboa's, he's paid for it before and the right opp will cash him out empty on some Manny Pac/Marquez shyt

but taylor could only do that for about 7-8 rounds max...he caught bhop at the right time

the first fight was close and i thought taylor edged it; that second fight i thought bhop won that...those fights let me know how shaky taylor was

Just my opinion but the 2nd BHop fight, the fight with Winky and fight with Cory Spinks I think Taylor lost all 3 of those
