Stupid fucking corner work in my opinion.

That really is a product of how Emmanuel Steward must perceive Taylor as a fighter. I don't think Steward pushed that too bad, as I did see some rounds where he told Taylor he won the round, but every fighter responds differently.
Taylor has been accused of coasting in the past, especially against some of his most recent smaller opponents, so Steward must of wanted to light a fire under his ass...
