Jose Sulaiman, president of the WBCserved notice today to the camps of middleweight champion Jerman Taylor and mandatory challenger Winky Wright that the free negotiations period has begun for the mandatory title defense between our champion Jermain Taylor vs. mandatory challenger Ronald "Winky" Wright, as ordered during the WBC annual convention in Spain during October. If no agreement is reached, the WBC will order a purse offer to be held on January 20, 2006, in Mexico City. "I am extremely pleased with the WBC's decision to proceed with the mandatory title defense and I look forward to meeting Jermain head-on in the ring in my next fight," said Wright. "Everyone knows that after every fight, I have always asked for another big fight. No breathers for me. I only want the biggest fights against the best fighters because I am a competitor and I believe a champion should act like a champion. Now we are going to see who the best middleweight really is -- Jermain Taylor or me."
