Comments Thread For: Taylor To Prograis: Take Your Sunglasses Off You F***ing W*nker!

Who made that rule up? He can wear sunglasses whenever he wants...but Taylor and his skirt is going to need sunglasses after he gets punished

Well you were half right... they'll both need sunglasses to cover cut and swollen eyes - though Taylor's was a bit worse.
Taylor was the rightful winner in the end though, so will see the bruises as a price he was happy paying. Great fight though and close, I had it by 7-5 (same as Scene's unofficial card).

I agree. Much respect to both warriors. I had a close one going to Prograis but I am good with the decision.

I've always thought that with the subjective nature of scoring in pro boxing, you have to apply a 2 round margin of error to account for differing judging tastes. A narrow decision either way or draw would have been fair; one of the official cards was a bit wide for my liking though.
Maybe the 2-round swing should be a measure implemented on officiating judges? If one had more than a 2 round difference to the other 2 then they should be sat in front of a public board of inquiry. Nobody wants to see any more Adelaide Byrd situations tarnishing the sport.

I agree. That one called was ridiculous but I agree with your assessment. Those two warriors went at it and unfortunately one has to lose because of a person's viewpoint. Honestly I don't think either boxer lost in the eyes of the public. Looking forward to both fighting again in the future.
