Josh Taylor v Teofimo Lopez - June 10th, Madison Square Garden

Surprised at these odds. Thought would be 50-50 or Lopez fav.

Taylor was destroyed by Jack Catterall.

Haven't got a clue what to expect from this fight. Taylor hasn't boxed for over a year, and looked crap against Jack Catterall. I think he underestimated him. There's clearly alot of value in the Teofimo Lopez price

Wow Taylor now 1.55

really makes no sense to me, will have to in again on Teofimo

Always end up overstaking on boxing, disciplined on everything else

should self exclude from this sport

American books have Taylor fav too, though the equivalent of 1.85 ish

Reports that Bob Arum is done with Teofilo and very much wants Taylor to win.

So I guess I've done my money here.

Should be a decent fight though I won't be able to stay up for it

going to be very interesting to see what happens. a good old fashioned 50/50

Teo schooled him!!!!

two judges had it by one round. one judge had it correct. mad stuff

Taylor was well beaten.  Talking about now moving up the weight category. Are his best days behind him???

Yes they are.

Taylor just looks like a shot fighter.

Was no better than the Catterall fight. Poor timing, missing punches by a long way, well getting caught himself frequently.

Strange as he was brilliant for a few years, and then looked finished against Catterall.

He could do a Kell Brook and make some cash as a shot fighter who still has a big name, because Spence, Crawford would see him as an easy voluntary defence.

Almost seemed like those 2 judges were there to ensure the Taylor decision, but the scale of the looming robbery was so vast that they were told to abort.

exactly tobes, they were the A side judges but there's only so much they can do to help

Yeah, if Taylor had legit won 4 rounds they'd have given him another 3 for the win.

But you could hardly make a case he won 2 rounds, so they couldn't give him 5 more in which he hardly landed a punch.

Of course with Catteral that's what they did do. But robbing a NYC fighter in MSG is of a different magnitude than ripping off Catterall in a leisure centre.

Lopez a bigger name in general than Catterall too. there was no value in Catterall for them
