    And Jeff Lacy is??? The past is the past, Green has fought his way back and that loss was at 160, where he had legitimate excuse for the loss.

    At 168, he is undefeated and has been a Top 10 Ring Magazine contender for years. Credible??? Yes he is.

        Why did Taylor move to 168, when he don't want to fight the best in the division?

          Jeff Lacy would probably beat Allan Green in a fight. I can't seen Allan Green beating many fighters since he is too busy staring at their feet.

              Point is, Lacy was only a tune-up fight. If Taylor fights Green or Ward now, when he could be fighting Froch for the WBC belt, for which he's the mandatory, or Bute for the IBF belt, or even Kessler for the WBA belt, he'll be ducking the top fighters, end of story. You can't say you need two tune-up fights in a row. He'll lose all credibility with most boxing fans if he does that.

                his options are about as twisted as working at a school.

                    I agree. I like Ward a lot but Taylor might be a little too much for him at this point.

                      i think green and miranda would be huge steps up for him too, in terms of competition.....

                      lacy might be a better match-up for him right now.
