Josh Taylor's Post-Fight Interview: Disappointment, Family Time, and Uncertain Future Josh Taylor, the former undisputed world champion, gave a candid interview to BBC Scotland following his defeat against Ekow Essuman. The interview, filmed shortly after the fight, captured Taylor's raw emotions. He admitted to being "totally gutted" and explained why he left the ring immediately after the bout, saying, "My emotions were so high and over the place, I didn't want to do an interview and end up saying something I'd regret." Taylor attributed his loss to a lack of recent fights, stating, "I think I put a lot of it down to inactivity." He also admitted to deviating from his game plan. Despite his disappointment, Taylor emphasized his intention to spend time with his family, including his wife, Danielle. He plans to take some time to reflect before making any decisions about his future in boxing.
