        Apparently an OCT1st rematch will not happen because of the 15 stitches in Taylor's had. Plus it seems he has a concussion.

        So it may not even be until sometime next year. By that time the drive for a rematch may die off between the fighters which I hope not.

        I am still not convinced that Taylor dominates the division. I feel Hopkins would win the rematch to become a 2 Time Undisputed MW Champ, retire, vacate the belts, then a tourney should happen. The best MW should win.
        i feel taylor will have an easier time second time around. hopkins would have more of a chance if it was done in october.

        seems like hopkins dirty tactics like that headbutt is going to cause a longer wait for him. more time favores taylor and gives him more training time to get over his mistakes in first fight.

          After seeing the cut on Taylor, I knew that it was not possible for him to fight in 2 months, the earliest I see this fight happening is sometime in mid December. Taylor will win easily in the rematch, if Borekins brawls with Taylor & not run away for the first 9 rounds. I see Borekins getting knocked out.

            Taylors promoter will try to delay the fight as long as possible to screw over Hopkins.

              So you saying they should fight in October. How in the hell that is possible, that's like 2 months away, have you seen the cut on Taylor. It is not possible for this fight to happen before december.

                If this is made in December, Hopkins is not going to be that much older than if the fight is in October.

                  Sorry Taylor is not Lennox Lewis, Lewis is a fraud & Lewis was knocked out twice with one punch. Lewis ducked Bowe for years, he also retired & didn't want to fight Vitali Klitschko.

                    Well this is very bad news for B-Hop.I think they are just stalling the rematch that Hopkins would win clearly. Then on the other Taylor looked real bad in the last rounds. He looked out of it like he wasnt there it looked like he couldnt believe he was getting tagged, right hand after right hand.
                    It could be true that he had a concusion but to cancel the rematch till next year is just a stragedy.They wanna play chess with Hopkins and they might just win it.

                      You have your information flipped. Bowe ducked Lewis, not the other way around.
