Don't know if he's good, but he wins:

Here's what columnist Charles Rigler says: I've seen this Taylor guy fight. It was against Nick Rupa, who I saw David Reid whack in two rounds a few years back. Taylor won every round and Rupa was giving 100%. Taylor finally stopped a tough Rupa in nine rounds. Now, that's pretty good, but not good enough to play with "Sugar".
I think Taylor will give it his all and may last the distance. Taylor certainly has a puncher's chance, though I didn't see any one shot power against the defenseless Rupa.
I think Shane shoeshines Taylor and keeps digging to the body. I think Taylor gets cut and his body begins to break as each second ticks past the fifth round. I see Mosley winning via TKO in the late rounds.
"What could stand in Mosley's way?" Well, Mosley. This is the biggest fight of Taylor's career, his biggest fight ever. When he was a child he dreamed of fighting the best fighter in the world (I'm guessing, I mean I do…I mean..ah..did, I used, when I was a kid, yeah). Chances are Shane wasn't fantasizing about out-jabbing a decent opponent from "Down Under". Shane may be looking past Taylor, but that's never been a problem in the Mosley camp before, so I doubt it.
Bottom line: Mosley TKO 11.

It could be a good fight. The question I have is, did Taylor come to win?
