Shouldn't he beat someone... ANYONE... in the top 20 first? 
Green's got a new interview up on boxing talk dot com, spouting off about how he only wants a title fight from here on out, accusing Taylor of being a coward, etc... here are a few highlights:
I think he's one of the most delusional fighters out there at the moment.
It's a pity really; I think if he was handled properly, and trained properly, he could be a force in the SMW division. But he's got some terrible habits in the ring, has made mistakes against weak opposition, and worst of all, he severely overestimates his own importance. In the past year he's dissed ESPN and priced himself out of a Pavlik fight. ******, ******, ******.

I was very dissapointed that I didn't get the chance to fight Jermain Taylor, because I was most definitely going to end it for him. They wouldn't have been able to resurrect him after I got done with him. It's nothing personal, but I don't see him as a real fighter.
I don't want to waste my time on any kind of prospect, or prospect who originally were contender. I'm not trying to waste my time with that. I want a title fight. You've got Lucian Bute, Mikkel Kessler, or winner of Jermain's fight. That's who I want. If Froch wins, I respect Froch, and I like him as a fighter. He may fight me, but if Taylor wins, I think he'll do everything in his power to avoid fighting me. He was approached by a friend of mine about fighting me, and he made excuses. The excuse people always use, the money, the money. There's no money in fighting me. At the end of the day, he just doesn't want to get his ass whooped.
