Josh and Jack Showdown<\/strong><\/h2>\n

By James Blears<\/p>\n

The rivalry doesn`t get more traditional or keener edged, than a Scotland against England Braveheart Battle, and so Josh \u201cTartan Tornedo\u201d Taylor Vs Jack \u201cEl Gato\u201d Catterall is a rip roaring classic, especially as it`s for the undisputed super lightweight title.<\/p>\n

It was to have landed on December 18th, but Josh suffered a knee injury in training, so everything out of kilter and: \u201cAuld Lang Syne\u201d was postponed and rescheduled for February 26th for the bonnie boxers. A long awaited homecoming for Josh, and it`s going to be at the SSE Hydro in Glasgow, north of Hadrian`s Wall. You can almost already hear the chanting of fight fans: \u201cI belong to Glasgow, Dear Old Glasgow Town.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jack from Chorley, Lancashire has the chance of a lifetime, wrapped up in much more than a five pound note, fighting for all of the belts. But to win, he`ll have to swoop in with the stealthy, lethal taloned skills of a night owl. His unbeaten record of twenty six fights including thirteen KO`s shows he`s no pussycat! A true Sassenach challenge!<\/p>\n

Josh who`s also unbeaten, has rapidly established his superstar credentials in just eighteen fights, with thirteen KO`s. Jack temporarily stepped aside for Josh to fight Jose Carlos Ramirez, who held the WBC and WBO titles. Josh was aiming to add them to his WBA and IBF belts\u2026and he did!<\/p>\n

\"https:\/\/suljosblog.com\/suljos\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/talor4.jpg\"<\/p>\n

He achieved it in style, knocking down Ramirez in the sixth with a blistering left hook counter, and again in the seventh with a left uppercut really close in. Ramirez fought on and back with grit, guts and grim determination, but those two knockdowns proved decisive with Josh winning 114-112 on all three Judges` scorecards, to become Scotland`s only undisputed World Champion, since Ken Buchanan, his friend and idol.<\/p>\n

But, we have to look back a couple of fights previous, to truly access and assess Josh`s Scotland The Brave claymore mettle. It was against the tough, resolute and also very hard hitting Regis Prograis. The IBF, WBA, WBC Diamond and the Muhammad Ali Trophy at stake, in the final of the World Boxing Super Series.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

At the final presser, Josh tersely urged Regis to remove sun glasses and Regis demurred. Determined to put Regis in the shade, Josh started brightly and effectively, but Regis menacingly came back with some crunching, clobbering, caber tossing body shots. It was a give and take, see saw war, with both marked up and then cut, also sporting nose bleeds apiece. Regis came on strong especially in the twelfth round. But Josh`s punches throughout had been crisper and more accurate. He won the unanimous decision, but assessing the firefight, it was enticingly close, to those: \u201cIn the ken.\u201d<\/p>\n

For a super lightweight, Josh is tall and rangy. He stands five feet ten inches tall with a reach of sixty nine and a half inches. While Jack is five feet seven inches tall with a reach of sixty seven inches. Jack will need to cut the distance and use his blazing hand speed, plus searing body attack to make as well as leave his mark.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Josh who`s also a southpaw has accomplished a high proportion of his KO victories with his very own devastating body attack. The haggis onslaught! He himself has lightning fast hands and an unbending iron will to win. Plenty of thistle!<\/p>\n

During one their several press conferences leading up to this point, supervised by Sky`s gravel voiced Adam Smith, Josh tartly told Jack that he`s worked way too hard to lose his titles. Unabashed, Jack said that`s precisely what will happen, to which Josh asked how? retorting that he`s dreaming and should go back to sleep! It didn`t faze Jack, who`s described as: \u201cWater off a duck`s back laid back.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Josh`s Trainer is Ben Davidson, has coached the great Tyson Fury. Jack`s Trainers are ex British and European super welterweight champion Jamie Moore and \u201cFlat Cap\u201d Nigel Travis. Each corner appreciates and realizes that at this rarefied Ben Nevis level, the first mistake would surely prove the last. A long drop into the glen!<\/p>\n

For every fight, lean Josh wears a variation of tartan shorts of different Clans, and his team unfurls a Scottish flag. By George, it`ll be interesting to see if Jack wears Union or Union Jack shorts? We`re definitely going to hear the wailing caterwaul of the bagpipes prior to the beginning of hostilities. Both man respects the other, so perhaps they might share a dram of Scotch, but that would be after the heat, when dust settles on to the peat.<\/p>\n

Both thrive as pressure fighters and so we`re going to see one helluva bust up. A real fistfight in The Gorbals! Josh has fought the higher caliber of opponents, but Jack who`s been a WBO Intercontinental Champion, has more than earned his mandatory challenge. He too is a quality fighter, who possesses real power in both fists and the courage of a lion, rampant\u2026or otherwise.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Josh and Jack favor fighting at close quarters, so their encounter is going to be a war of attrition. A Highland Fling, not a Viennese Waltz. Initially, neither will be willing to give ground, ceding not an inch. But, as the fight progresses, and with it the wear and tear accumulates, one of them will gain the high ground and grind down the other. The vast majority of world title fights are thrillers, but this one will exceed even that! While it lasts, it`ll be a barnburner at the croft.<\/p>\n

A win for Josh would yet again confirm him as The Pride of Scotland. A win for Jack would transform him into Top Cat of Hoagy`s Alley\u2026in the words of Frank Randall: \u201cThe Emperor of Lancashire.\u201d<\/p>\n
