I'm so glad my nikka Jermain Taylor won last night. #BadIntentions
Big fan of dude and it never seems like he gets any credit for anything so it was good to see him finally shine again.
I thought the fight was a toss up from the minute it was signed. Even though he's beyond past it, I thought he looked pretty decent under the circumstances. His jab was looking crisp. He took a few good shots and never seemed bothered. Even though he gassed a lil towards the end, it wasn't the big drop off like how it used to be. Taylor doesn't seem to fight as jittery as before so that could be why. He seems more calm, even when he was losing a couple rounds. Nobody ever looks spectacular against Soliman anyways. All in all it was a solid performance. I mean it was better than we expected from a guy that had a brain bleed that busts his guns, and seems like he's cracked out.
A prime Taylor would be one of the few nikkas out there that would fight GGG with no fukks given, but at this stage
keep him away from that nikka.
Dirrell looked decent too. He was catching some work until he finally hit that home run punch.
