Mexican Jose Zepeda challenging Scottish 140 super champ Josh Taylor would be an exciting fight to watch, sure, maybe in the summer of next year.

Because Taylor first have to be successful in the staking of his 4 marbles against unbeaten Briton Jack Catterall (26-0, 14 KO's) in Feb of 2022... and in boxing we never know.

That's a good fight. Zepeda is probably the most deserving guy since Taylor already beat Ramirez and Prograis.

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.

This is a good fight. Zepeda is very deserving of a title shot, and a bonus that it would be for the undisputed titles.

Taylor is very good but he has his flaws which can be exploited. He'd be the favourite but Zepeda is a tough opponent.

Subriel Matias vs Zepeda make it happen!

[BillyBoxing]

That's a big fight IMO, Zepeda grabbed solid performances vs Pedraza and Baranchyk, it was no surprise that he put to sleep Vargas. Taylor would be favourite but def not a walk in the park, Zepeda would have a shot.
