Comments Thread For: WBC Prez: Jose Zepeda is in Line For Mandatory Crack at Josh Taylor

Subriel Matias vs Zepeda make it happen!

Why? No chance of it happening anyway.

I like zepeda but he isn’t beating Taylor.

Yea same here. Awesome to see him put that loudmouth Vargas in his place but Taylor is just on another level. If Taylor can't entice Teo to move up I'd rather Taylor move up and campaign at Welter. He's pretty much cleared out all challenges at 140 so I say move up and make a run there. Bigger names,bigger challenges and bigger money.....

I'd like to see this fight. Not sure it happens though. It'll depend on wether or not Taylor can get Crawford. However if he can't then I'd like to see Josh vs Chon. I feel like this would be the last piece of the 140 lb puzzle for Josh. Chon clearly deserves it. Not just because he's beaten Baranchyk and Pedraza, but also because he's beaten Ramirez and didn't get his just rewards. I say all this as as a Taylor fan and would be appreciative of this fight, if a fight with Crawford doesn't materialize right away. Time will tell.

Jose Zepeda has earned his shot at the title, he deserves to be next up for Josh Taylor.
That will be a great fight to watch between two tried, and true warriors.

So what does this mean?! That the 'Tart-Tomato' Josh Taylor has two mandatories, back-to-back?!

You know Josh Taylor seems to be all too willing to fight that English-Bum, Jack Catterall as his WBO mandatory, but its starting to make sense. I cant even believe that Regis Prograis who gave Taylor the beating of his life almost a decade ago, is still not Josh Taylor's mandatory, but 'Chon' Zepeda is?

So the only man with any juice with Mauricio Sauliman is Teofimo Lopez by virtue of the 'Franchise' title, the WBC had stated that the 'Franchise' champion had special perks ; maybe cutting in line like Bumchenko is one of those benefits.

That would aid the WBC to persuade the publics favor and maybe even acceptance of their trojan belt, its order through chaos ; propaganda and manipulation for profit.

Tart-Tomato, you mean the Scotsman who holds ALL 4 belts? The undisputed 140lb world champion? You are either trolling or you are just mentally ill? Which one is it Elie? All of a sudden Jack Caterall is a bum? You are pathetic. You are the definition of a BUM.

he earned it honestly

Great news for Zepeda. I was hoping for a Crawford-Taylor clash but this is also good.

Josh Taylor got lucky. He barely got a decision with 2 knockdowns vs. Jose Ramirez, he cheap-shot Ramirez in the 7th. Even before that, Josh barely made it out of the 12 vs. Regis Prograis in the 2020 jr. welterweight WBSS.

Jack Catterall is a English-Bum, he also ducked Jose Zepeda when Toprank proposed that he ( Catterall ) fight Zepeda on the undercard of Ramirez vs. Taylor ; Jack Catterall sat out all of 2021 but look at 'Chon' Zepeda, active in fights of the year vs. Ivan Baranchyk and beating Josue Vargas in one round.

What has Jack Caterall done to earn his shot? We all know Jose Zepeda would of KO 'El Gato', he sucks.
