In a 12-round super lightweight boxing battle that ended in the early hours of this morning, Josh Taylor from the United Kingdom fought hard for 12 rounds, and the points barely defeated the challenger Jack Cattler, of which Taylor was knocked down once, almost KO, Taylor's level is questionable, he may be the most parallel overlord in history.
Taylor looks like this, upgraded to play 147 pounds of boxing king Crawford, almost no play, 90% will be Crawford KO.
The race started in Gorasgar, Scotland, and both were actually British, challenger Jack Cattler was 1.70 meters tall and had an arm span of 1.70 meters, maintaining a good record of 26 wins and 13 KO games. He wasn't well known before the match, but when he played, it was clear that he was an underrated boxer.
Catarer's technique is not bad, the strength is very strong, and Taylor was very passive in the first half.
In the 8th round of the match, Catral knocked down Taylor with a heavy punch, which embarrassed the 140-pound overlord. Fortunately, Catral's heavy punch was not so destructive, and coupled with his physical weakness, Taylor escaped the disaster. In this way, the two fell into a position battle in the middle and close range, hugging a lot, and the game was discounted.
At the end of the 11th round, Taylor killed the red eye and threw a punch in violation of the law, resulting in a deduction of 1 point.
Both were left-handed boxers, and Catelar struggled in the second half and lost strength. But he was tenacious and fought the defending champion to the last minute. In the end, both men raised their arms and signaled their victory. Under the ruling of the three referees, the score of 114-111, 113-112, 112-113 was very close and controversial, and the score was determined that Taylor successfully defended his title.
Judging from the game, the strength of the two is between Bo Zhong. From the technical statistics after the game, Taylor punched 306 punches, hit 73 punches, Catarl punched 525 punches, hit 120 punches, just look at the number of hits, Catral was indeed hacked.
In fact, it is no wonder that Catral is too low-profile, Taylor is also the boxing king of the four major boxing organizations, and is supported by Arum and wants to fight Crawford.
Taylor's victory was also very controversial, and many in the industry believed that he did beat his opponents by black whistle. Taylor had beaten Ramirez in 12 rounds before, and his performance was OK. This poor performance is related to his weight loss. Because he is 1.78 meters tall, it is indeed a bit difficult to press at 140 pounds.
Taylor made it clear that this was his last game at 140 pounds.
At Taylor's level, he is arguably the worst and most watery overlord in the history of boxing, whether it's Hopkins, Crawford, Usik or Avarez, everyone is stronger than him, more horizontal than him. If Taylor upgrades to 147 pounds, it won't be much competitive. The 147-pound master is like a cloud, and any one of them can make him drink a pot.
In short, Taylor, the overlord, is watery, because he lacks dominance at 140 pounds, although beating Ramirez, it is also a point to win, if you fight the second war, the deer killed whose hand is not yet known. He's by no means as brutal as Crawford was for 3 rounds, so he's lacking dominance. If Crawford is met, he is likely to be KO. What do you think? 【Text/Fighting Jianghu】
