N'dou blames wbc

The 'Battersea Bomber' was to have boxed Jermain Taylor in a final eliminator, but the American withdrew. Assurances had already been given that in such an event Eastman would be automatically installed as mandatory and the WBC were true to their word. A press release from the govening body declared: "The World Boxing Council hereby informs that #1 Middleweight contender Howard Eastman has been confirmed as mandatory challenger of WBC Champion, Bernard Hopkins. "During the World Boxing Council Annual Convention in Phuket Thailand, a purse offer was held for a final elimination bout between Howard Eastman and Jermain Taylor. "Jermain Taylor has informed the WBC, that he will not face Eastman, consequently a voting was casted by the WBC Board of Governors which resulted in a unanimous ratification of Howard Eastman as mandatory challenger."

taylor ducked eastman?

Do you remember when Taylor didn't want to fight Eastman in a final eliminator, eastman went above him in the rankings and has got his shot at Hopkins. Shouldn't this be the same branco sucks Witter, Witter goes above him in the rankings. Any ideas who witter could fight instead? can't see them changing there mind?

maybe we should send them 5 dollars each

Fuckin hell this is pissing me off. I can't see this fight happening then cos I doubt the WBC will change their mind (unless a small "donation" is made!)

sigh :bottle:
