— Mike Coppinger (@MikeCoppinger) October 26, 2019In the final of the World Boxing Super Series 140-pound tournament, Scotland’s Josh Taylor won a majority decision -- 117-112, 114-114, 115-113 -- over Regis Prograis. With the win, Taylor now holds the IBF and WBA titles at 140 pounds, making him the only man other than WBC-WBO champion Jose Ramirez to hold belts in the weight class.
For those who picked Prograis, the idea was that he would have the advantage on the inside.
