    Team Jermain Taylor Responds To Carl Froch's Challenge

    In a press release issued earlier today, undefeated super middleweight Carl Froch issued some harsh words in the direction of promoter Lou DiBella and former champion Jermain Taylor. With Joe Calzaghe moving forward with Roy Jones Jr. fight, the WBC super middleweight title has been declared vacant and the sanctioning body has ordered a bout between Froch and Taylor for the vacant title. Froch and his promoter Mick Hennessy are upset over Taylor's possible selection of Jeff Lacy for his next slated ring appearance in November. [details]

    I half expected him to call Froch a "yurop bum" then.

    What a weak ass arguement.

      OK, hands up if you will watch this fight!

      Who do you Americans want?

      Froch or Lacy?

        I understand his point. That fight is definitely intriguing, but they want to make the fights with better known people. Besides, let Taylor get a fight in at SMW first. He's had a few tough fights recently.

        I'd rather see Taylor fight Froch, but I can understand why they would pick Lacy.

            Who has done that?

            I mean, if you're gonna get in some knee jerk "look, all freakin brit's r sayen dat froch cud beat a pryme ali" then maybe it's best if you do it after more than two people have replied, you ****ing ignoramous?


            As for Froch, at this rate we'll never know one way or the other. The guy just never gets a break, does he?

              So they'd rather fight Lacy instead of a title fight against Froch? ****ing joke.

                A fight wit Lacy will be even more profitable to Jermain if he has a belt. Fight Froch 1st, then Lacy.

                    ...but if he beats Froch, would he defend the title against Lacy? I doubt it.

                    Kessler would be the ideal opponent for the victor of this fight.
