HOUSTON - Sometimes a fighter can find himself up against the ropes. That's the feeling most people in the boxing community have about Jermain Taylor. He’s fighting an undefeated former champ in his hometown and he is the underdog. The pressure is on, but nothing could be further from Taylor’s mind as he prepares to face Arthur Abraham on October 17th, at the o2 World arena in Berlin, Germany. [details]

Respect to Taylor for taking on a hard puncher after just getting KO'd. Taylor needs to improve his stamina.

I just have a bad feeling about this fight. He should have beaten Froch and knocked out badly.
He already got KO'd badly by Pavlik.
A third brutal KO in two years and he might never be the same.

AA isn't going to pressure Taylor, so I think he may be able to save some energy for the later rounds. If he has the stamina, and can avoid getting knocked out in the later rounds, I'm certain he can outbox AA to a UD. Whether he's awarded the decision or not is the question.
