Prograis is controlling this.

Hard one to score. Feel like Prograis has the quantity and Taylor has the quality.

Tough to call last two but I'll go 3-3 now and give Taylor benefit of doubt on both just

Hard to call, Prograis has possibly landed more punches but Taylor landed better quality punches.

Momentum shifting towards Taylor now.

Think Prograis has had more output, but a lot of them landing on the gloves. Taylor is getting through more.

Great fight this, Prograis tiring and Taylor coming on strong

Prograis was too passive and somewhat gunshy. Think he couldn't deal with Taylor's size

Unfortunately; and the longer he goes, the more likely it is to end horribly. Whatever prime he had is long, long gone. I'd like to see him hang them up and join a commentary team or continue in the sport in a different capacity.

He seems like a good guy and everyone in the sport seems to like him.  I'd be amazed if he couldn't find a way to make a living out of boxing.
