A decorated U.S. amateur boxer, highlighted by his two New York Golden Gloves Championship titles, Taylor was also a four-time runner-up in USA National Championships, including one to Joshua Edwards, who is representing the U.S. as a super heavyweight for Team USA in the upcoming 2024 Olympics in Paris. Taylor also played basketball for one season at Corning Community College in upstate New York. Taylor used the week of camp sparring with Anderson to better prepare him for his next fight, September 7th against Lemir Isom Riley (4-2, 2 KOs), at Melrose Ballroom in Queens, New York. It will be Taylor’s first scheduled six-round bout. After recently finishing his second season as a member of the NYC Attitude in the Team Combat League (TLC), Taylor was just informed that he has been selected as a TCL All-Star.
