Do losses offset the original gains on 1031?

Odd 1031 question.... Say you had $305k on a 1031 exchange that you used to purchase a small MFR. You mismanage it and it gets run down and dilapidated. An investor comes and pays you $100k for the distressed property. You lost $205k on the deal. What is your tax burden from the original 1031? Would it be $100k ($305 basis-$205 loss)? Or are you still responsible for the original $305k?
