Josh Taylor returns: Required fighting Eco Essuman in Glasgow

Josh Taylor returns to the ring from a long one -year discharge in a mandatory fight against Ecowa Essuman this Saturday, May 24, at SSE Hydro in Glasgow, Scotland. The former unnoticed lightweight champion Taylor (19-2, 13 ko) will make his debut in 147 against #4 WBO, #14 WBA Essuman (21-1, 8 ko). The event will be displayed He lives on a given This Saturday.

Taylor’s return make-or break

This is a struggle that Taylor should win if he has something left because Essuman, 36, is not a crop cream.

“Tornado Tornado” Taylor lost his last two fights, and fans suspect that he was left at the age of 34. He did not look the same fighter as he once had been with his war with Jose Ramirez in 2021. That competition pulled a lot from Taylor, leaving him a shell of his ex in the last three fights he had since. Josh’s record in these fights is 1-2, but it should be 0-3. His one victory was a controversial separated decision in 12 circles over Jack Catteral in their first fight in 2022.

Taylor comes to fight with #11 WBC, #11 WBO ranking in Welterweight, but that doesn’t mean anything. He performed terribly in his rematch with Catterall last May, losing a unanimous decision in 12 rounds in Leeds, England. Before that, Taylor humiliated Teofimo Lopez, losing his WBO 140 LB belt with a unanimous decision in 12 rounds. Teo made Josh look bad in that fight.

If Taylor wins against Essuman, he will be in a position to get into bigger fight against Welter against Conor Benna, Ryana Garcia, Devina Haney and Jarona ‘Boots’ Ennis. It is doubtful that they will get any of these fights. She will look for Taylor to beat someone decent like Karen Chukhadzhian, Eimantas Stanionis, Shakhhhh Giyasov or Rohan Polanco to shoot those fighters. However, the beating of these guys could make the reverse for Taylor, scaring them. What might be necessary is for Turks Alalshikh to notice that these fighters would reluctantly fight him.

“He hasn’t fought for a year. This is a fight for me, where Josh Taylor can prove against a very strong, natural magnitude of weight, which he probably burned,” said Gareth A. Davies in Boxing for conversations About Josh Taylor against Eco Essuman on Saturday in Glasgow.

Essuman is the perfect style for Josh to show his old shape, because someone who will be there to be hit. Taylor will not have to look for him or persecute him around the ring as against Catttel and Theophima.

Large struggles still possible?

“This is an opportunity to show how much he has left and how much he wants. This division in the killer is currently a murderer, and there are several gold pirates for some big fights. Conor Benn and Ryan Garcia are significant two. There are big fights for money if we fight about the two, and they both said they were made in style.

Benn and Ryan are out of Taylor’s orbits. These fighters will focus on bigger fights. Taylor has to start from the bottom and work until 147. He cannot be afraid of risk against dangerous candidates, because this is the only way he can get fighters like Haney, Ryan and Benna to fight him.

“He’s a southern Pope. I’ll choose him in points, because I think he’s very smart. He’ll turn on when Eco Boxes and Box fights when Ecow is fighting. I think Josh Taylor had to get all the stops,” Gareth said. “I think Josh is good enough to show that he can do it in Welterweight -ui to lead a few big fights before hanging gloves. If he didn’t get it, I think it’s the last of him.”

The version of Josha Taylor, which existed from 2017 to 2019, was the school’s Essuman and made it look bad. He hasn’t shone lately. Of course, one of the reasons for this is that Taylor fights smooth fighters, Catterall -a Theophima. Departure against these guys would be difficult for everyone.

“Jaron Ennis is currently #1 in the Division. Brian Norman is champion. Devin Haney is in the Division. Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney. The division is set on fire. So if Josh Taylor gets a win on Saturday night and looks rejuvenated. This is a division against two massive fights.

Again, Taylor will not get any of these big names to fight him after defeating 36-year-old Essuman. He has to do much better than this to land like this. Whether Taylor can beat fighters, it is necessary to fight bigger fights.
