  • HBO Shafts Taylor vs. Froch, Wants Taylor-Wright

    BoxingScene.com was advised that HBO is not willing to approve a super middleweight bout between WBC champion Carl Froch and mandatory Jermain Taylor. Instead, HBO is trying to make a rematch between Taylor and Winky Wright. Wright, as you may remember, was due a date on HBO last September. The network would eventually renege on Winky, and handed the date to Golden Boy Promotions for Mosley-Mayorga. [details]

    I think Taylor-Froch could be very exaciting. If they really want to do the fight, they should tell HBO to **** off and make on Showtime. HBO is tryng to run the sport and thats one of the things tha are ****ing up the sport!!!!!

          HBO has only themselves to blame when this fight flops miserably.

            Winky needs to work his way back, he doesn't deserve to fight Taylor.

                I have NOOOOOO interest in seeing Winky Wright. Taylor should fit Froch or Kessler

                  Winky might lose to Talyor at this point. Taylor should stay focused on a title shot rather than an inactive guy like Winky anyway.

                    i agree.

                    this rematch should have occured back when it was relevent (ie. sometime within the first 6 months AFTER the draw)...no all these years later...

                    winky has fallen further and further from his prime.

                    taylor would ud winky right now...

                    at least if the rematch took place WHEN IT WAS SUPPOSED TO then it would be a close SD fight (in my opinion).

                    Taylor v. Froch makes so much more sense now and would be a much better fight.
