The second fight was really interesting to me. I thought he clearly won, but it was obvious that he started to wear down on the back end and you could see Hop start to take over.
I felt the same way about the third Trips/Canelo fight. There was no doubt in my mind that Canelo won that fight. But Trips easily took 9 thru 12.
taylor's stamina just wasn't great down the stretch
his defeats were all because of stamina issues
pavlik took him out, the second he gassed, in the first fight
pavlik wore him down in second fight and only reason he didnt ko'ed was because he started holding alot and not punching
froch bodied him hard in the last round in a fight all he had to do was remain standing after building a huge lead to win
abe gives him a brain bleed and knocks him out late in the final round
