Jessie Nicklow was stopped in the eighth round by former world champion Jermain Taylor tonight in Cabazon, CA. Although Taylor was in control throughout the contest, the stoppage was very quick. Nicklow took a tough combination and was backing into the ropes when referee Ray Corona stopped the contest at 36 seconds of the eighth.
This looked like a referee looking for the first real opportunity to stop the contest. Nicklow falls to 22-3-3, eight KO's. Taylor is now 29-4-1, 18 KO's.

True it was a first chance stoppage, but there was no reason why Jessie should continue on that fight. He was very valiant in his effort
Jesse took a beating the entire time and had zero chance of winning. Agreed, early stoppage but all the ref did was save him a few brain cells.
I well give it to jesse he has hart and behaves like a real fighter
Guts and Heart = Jesse Nicklow

Sorry, boxing cliche pet peeve here: Why does anytime someone takes an ass whooping in a fight everyone knows they are in over their head for, they call it "heart."
I guess there are a lot of tomato cans with "heart" lol
2011 was sad year for boxing in baltimore.with the passing of MR MACK
baltimore boxing DIED.RIP
Why are all of the good trainers in the DC area.kids are kids the difference is in the skill of the teacher.
Mr. Mack actually passed in 2010, but Baltimore Boxing is alive and very well -- former world champion Vincent Pettway is running Mr. Mack's Gym.
There is also Upton Gym, Loch Raven and UMAR to name just a few. Those trainers do an outstanding job. There are great trainers in Baltimore.
dont kid your self lets compare results balt area vs dc area balt 2 champions in last 70 years.
He may have been in over his head but I'll bet he would have kicked the shit out of you.
And Nicklow is far from a tomato can.I really understand what your saying but Jermain Taylor dominated the best in the world for a long time so there is no shame in him dominating Jesse.
