The man who many people believe will take over the middleweight division after Bernard Hopkins will be fighting next saturday on HBO. This is a chance for those who have not seen him to get to know a future champion.

tHANKZ BRUH !!
i will try to see this one so i can see the flow of style he box in

Taylor TKO'd his opponent (Raul Marquez) in the 9th round! Once again he looked very impressive against a relatively tough opponent. Marquez is a former champion, but past his prime. He had never been knocked down before tonight. Good effort from Taylor; however, the biggest criticism of him remains....that he fights small guys. Both of his last 2 opponents have been Jr. middleweights....Taylor is going to have to fight bigger guys if he wants to be truly ready to take on Hopkins.

now i agree he did look good in the ring made all the right moves
to his TKO but i don't think he ready for Hopkins yet !

He pretty much said that he is still learning & wants to go slow (which is true). The translation of this is: Hopkins is too good, and since he is going to retire in a couple of years...I'd rather wait until he is gone, before I try to win the title. This isn't a bad move on his part.
