Allan Green. What a joke, this guy sucks. Here is what Allan Green Advisor had to say
Leon's Response: The odds were a bit much. But I'm sure oddsmakers based it on Mosley's showing's against Cotto and Mayorga and Margarito's showings against Cintron and Cotto. A lot of people have been calling out Jermain Taylor, but after all of the emails I've avoided; I'm proud to say Allan "Sweetness" Green will be facing Taylor next and he's looking to make the most of this potentially life changing opportunity.
Indeed Allen suks but so does Taylor and two high class bums might make a good fight!!
Wow.....
Anyway I like this fight for Jermain, I think he can put it down on Green.
I can think of at least 5 other people Id rather see Taylor face than Green but WTF is this bullshit about him ducking Froch? Thats funny as hell a man who beat BHop twice, controversial or not, being scared of Froch. Oh, yeah. That makes a lot of sense.
Green's best win is Rubin Williams. RUBIN F'ING WILLIAMS. Rubin has been stopped by four guys, and Green's not one of them.
Green's got a nasty left hook BUT he doesn't put his punches together well, his stance isn't great, he leaves his hands low and his head high with his chin way out in the open, and just isn't that tough. Strong, yes. Tough, no.
He might catch Taylor with something, but chances are he gets overwhelmed and possibly stopped late.
Green sucks. His performance against Miranda was a disgrace. He ran like a coward the whole fight. He wasn't even trying to win, he just wanted to survive the 10 rounds.
Taylor needs to stop ducking Carl Froch!
Allan Green was ill that night thats why. Thats not speculation its a fact!

I would not be surprised to see Green beat him. I dont rate Taylor too highly and i think Green's height and power,jab could give him plenty of trouble.
When HBO decline the Froch fight Showtime was interested, but Taylor or Dibella didnt take the offer.
Taylor and Dibella didn't take what offer? The offer to fight in the UK in April that had nothing to do with the March 28 date Showtime offered Taylor?
Dibella offered Froch the biggest payday of his career to come to the US and fight on Showtime but was rejected.
Yes the circumstances suck for this fight but IMO there just isn't enough interest by American TV (Showtime or HBO) to supply an adequate budget to get both fighters in the ring together. Green will probably take half of what Froch was offered.
Add to it that Taylor is unwilling to travel to the UK, which also sucks balls, and Froch's unjustifiably high opinion of himself as a paper champ, it is no wonder this fight is not happening right now.
Last month, DiBella and Taylor even tried to negotiate with Bute for a fight IN MONTREAL but were told that the Romanian was "unavailable"... and now he's signed on for an optional defense against Zuniga? WTF?
So yes... it is stupid that Taylor/Froch isn't coming off right now. But is it because Taylor is afraid of Froch? GTFO.
No, it is Showtimes fault. They approve these fights. There was a better option in Glen Johnson, but SHO wanted this fight. Stupid.

if taylor wins this does nothing for his career!! Why take this fight?? Maybe its Dibella fault and not Taylor's. Dibella promotes both Allan Green and Jermain Taylor

Yeah I am a bit surprised.. I know HBO is playing a role.. But come on ..It's a TITLE fight.. a duck is a duck.. I thought Froch was Just talking more shit...
Consider this:
You don't NOT take a fight you believe you can win - FOR THE BELT! $$$ OR NOT!!! - UNLESS you're ducking. End of discussion.
End of discussion.
End of discussion.
End of discussion.
End of discussion.
End. Of. Full. Stop.
Good fight, I'm looking forward to this.
