This Is The Story Of One Of The Most Outstanding Boxing Talents Of The 20th Century- Meldrick Taylor. Meldrick Taylor could have achieved much more than he did. They say of such boxers: "He wasted his talent." It's hard not to agree that Taylor is one of the most wasted talents in boxing history. He could have been one of the greatest but ended up just an outstanding boxer. He had fast hands and good legs. He could box and move, avoiding almost all punches when he was in the right mood. He was never a big puncher, but he fought in many of his fights as if he were. He loved the battles. But two seconds separated Meldrick Taylor from being called the best boxer in the world regardless of weight class. Two seconds determined his future. This is the story of one of the most outstanding boxing talents of the 20th century, a little boy from Philadelphia, Meldrick Taylor, nicknamed "The Kid."
