    I see Taylor and Sergio Martinez fighting at 160lb in the fall of 2012.

    Be a great fight imo... and with Taylor's questionable chin in the firing line, plus strikingly good power.... this matchup will guarantee a knockout.

      I admire your optimism mate and there's far worse fights at middleweight that could be made.

        Both are looked after by Lou Dibella, therefore it could well possibly happen

          I am pulling for Jermain he has all the skills to make one hell of a comeback,i guess later on tonight we will have more of an understanding of what exactly he has left in the tank.

            I wouldn't mind that fight at all. I think Taylor should fight Pirog before he gets a fight with Martinez though. Lord knows Martinez won't fight Pirog, so JT can take him on

              Yeah both fights would be entertaining. I still would like Taylor to get a couple of tunes up beforehand. Both Martinez and Pirog are very good punchers, so be good to know Taylor goes in to each fight with the confidence to take a punch.

                He does indeed, I'm still very worried about his chin though.

                    Strange that JT cites laziness as the reason for abandoning 160, but yet he failed to make the weight limit. I know he's been inactive for a long period, but that's "Just Lazy". Haha
