exactly what went wrong with jermain taylor???where did his career go wrong

[infamous larryx]

he was on top of the world,the middleweight champ..2 wins over the legend bernard hopkins.....now fastfoward 4 years later...people say hes shot and should retire...how does this happen in such a short span???

[MOTHER DUCKER]

Pushed to far to soon by HBO hype machine/Possibly never THAT good..

He has alot of very poor defenses at MW after Hopkins

He lost to Winky imo and fought some boring fights.

You got to say it all went south when Pavlik got up survived and KTFO Taylor 5 rounds laters

[stellen]

He ran into whitey.

[Max05]

when he fired his trainer after HOPKINS second fight.

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

Bad matchmaking.

Bad Habits.

He tried to do to much in so little time and now hes done.

[MR.PLANAS]

Couldn't keep up with the hype, he was good but was made to seem great...

[Biolink]

Matchmaking, Hardheaded(Bad habits), and Trainers IMO.

He never really gave Manny Steward a chance to succeed, but IMO I don't think he should have fired his first trainer.

[infamous larryx]

i think stewart was a terrible choice for taylor...he needed a defensive minded trainer...

[street bully]

Taking on Hopkins twice does that to you.

Maybe, Steward sorted out Wlad nice though
