Josh Taylor refused to make any excuses after he relinquished his world crown in New York last weekend. But he could have been forgiven for offering plenty.

Despite what some of the keyboard warriors might say, there was no disgrace in the Scot losing on points to Teofimo Lopez at Madison Square Garden.

If anything, producing a performance as competitive as he did was every bit as impressive as anything he’s achieved in his sensational career.

Excuses? How about the fact Taylor went toe to toe with one of the best fighters on the planet just 10 weeks after he could barely walk properly?
