Comments Thread For: Josh Taylor Dominates, Stops Ryan Martin in Seventh Round

[Abovetheclouds]

Lots of injuries on tonight's card.

Zach Parkers shoulder, Ryan Burnetts back and Ryan Martins arse went.

Taylor will look great if you let him get off his punches and you're afraid to get hit.

Prograis isn't afraid of getting hit.

Another Able Sanchez fighter beaten and looked clueless unable to make adjustments. Sanchez is on a real bad losing streak with his fighters catching L's everywhere

I know it was just against Ryan Martin, but I quite liked what I saw from Josh Taylor.
I think he is most skilled boxer from this season of the WBSS and yes that includes Inoue.

You think he takes out Prograis? will be one hell of a fight, cant wait

UnAbel Sanchez the most OVERRATED Trainer in Boxing

Joe Joyce...Fire Him ASAP!

He is Garbage his fighters make no adjustments. They taking L's left and right.

It's even worse than that.

His fighters literally do not know how to counter puncher. Either they don't know or they're instructed not to even try.

When their opponents are throwing combinations all they did is shell up and wait for the combination to be over. It's part of the reason they struggle fighting inside. It's a "my turn, your turn" fighting style and it's cost Golovkin, Gassiev and now Martin fights.

You put a combination puncher up against an Abel Sanchez fighter and they're likely going to win.

because if ryan martin was trained by someone else, he would of won!

Even if a fighter is getting beat down, it's just bad optics for a fight to end on a foul.
Maybe it's asking too much for a ref to at least be competent enough to know the rules and enforce them.

That's going to be some fight. Prograis showed me that he has more to his game than I thought.
Taylor looks like he could be something though. He is taller and longer than Prograis. I think he is the better boxer and more versatile. These things makes me feel like he should take it, but
it will be a great fight. I can't wait.

Taylor has the harder semi-final. Hopefully he comes out alright.

Heard of fighters having good chins, I think Martin has good ribs! Some of the body shots he took were wicked.

Abel offered little in the corner but just telling Martin to throw something...

Stoppage was odd, the shot was behind the head (though not deliberate) and Martin didn’t look badly hurt... he did however look like he wanted a way out.
