It has been reported earlier that middleweight titlist Jermain Taylor was detained and questioned for discharging a firearm in Little Rock, Arkansas on Monday afternoon.

There is even disturbing video of Taylor dancing at an event celebrating the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday before law enforcement placed him in custody.

Because of Taylor's latest run-in with the law, along with him being on probation for shooting his cousin last year, the 36-year-old will likely face more charges.

Promoter Lou DiBella confirmed to Boxingscene.com the February 6 IBF world middleweight title fight between Taylor and Sergio Mora is now off. The bout was slated to headline on ESPN2 Friday Night Fights from the Beau Rivage Resort and Casino in Biloxi, Mississippi.

"This is very disturbing to me and his management (which includes Al Haymon)," DiBella told Boxingscene.com over the phone. "We're very concerned over his mental state and his health. His boxing career is a distant second right now and he has to deal with these ramifications."

"You try to do your best to help someone. I'm very upset and and disappointed (by today's events)."

DiBella also confirmed to Boxingscene.com that Taylor suffered a rib injury during sparring on Saturday. X-rays were taken and Taylor was going to be removed from the fight with Mora for those reasons.

"We were beginning to look for an opponent for Sergio," said DiBella.
