Re: Tayla Harris immortalised
Reply #32 –
She's often said that she lacks aggression and that killer instinct, both in boxing and in footy.
She says she feels bad for her opponent and doesn't want to hurt them. Kinda got into the wrong sports for that.
You saw it in her footy, she polaxed someone and immediately went up to her to check if she was alright and apologised. You saw it again there.
She's a good girl who can seriously do some damage if/when she wants too. She is a Brian Lake, we need to find our Rocket Eade. If we can unlock that, then the sky is the limit for her.
Tayla didn’t hold back when she had her opponent at her mercy.
Unfortunately, it seems that women’s boxing dishes up as many mismatches as men’s boxing and that’s not good for a fighter’s development or moving on to the international stage as Tayla intends to do. I wouldn’t like to see her get the cr@p belted out of her because her camp overestimated her ability. She needs a couple of fights against evenly matched opponents to see where she is at and whether international boxing is realistic.
