World Boxing Super Series Final: Regis Prograis vs Josh Taylor preview

The World Boxing Super Series has brought the boxing world excellent matchups over its two seasons and concludes its super-lightweight tournament Saturday in the O2 Arena in London with another one. The final between Josh Taylor (15-0, 12 KOs) and Regis Prograis (24-0, 20 KOs) pits top 3 fighters against each other and delivers the match up fans have anticipated since the start of the tournament.

Taylor handed Ryan Martin his first loss in the quarterfinals and took the IBF title from Ivan Baranchyk in the semis. He is a very technically sound southpaw relying on good footwork and a high workrate to outbox his opponents, though he can handle himself on the inside and works the body well.
