Yes Wright is deserving, but Taylor is also deserving of letting his hometown fans see him fight as a champion after he beat Hopkins twice. Oh well, I like Winky but, I like Taylor more and this WBC ordering although Winky had nothing to do with it will make me hope Wright gets knocked out, I'm not saying he will because he prob wont but I'm just slightly upset. Your going to see that the alphabet organizations are going to force Taylor to fight Wright, then Sturm, then Abraham....and if Taylor wins them all were going to be bitching Taylor fights noone or in the last 3 years Taylor has fought no one, because there wont be much left in MWT.... maybe then again Wright can win and well be in the same prediciment either way the winner will prob clear out the division...

Taylor deserves an easy defense first. If he's forced to fight Wright before next summer, without a fight in the interim, he should give up the belt. Wright should accept step-aside money and wait unitl the right time. If not, I'd be worried about his mentality.

The fight to determine the best middleweight in the world took a major step forward today. Jose Sulaiman, president of the World Boxing Council (WBC), served notice today to the camps of middleweight champion JERMAIN 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 the month of October. If no agreement is reached, the WBC will order a purse offer to be held on January 20, 2006, in Mexico City." [details]

This fight should be nominated for snooze fest of the year.

if you were fighting a guy that was ONLY SIX ****ING POUNDS MORE THEN YOU, you actually feel like its unfair.


See this is the problem with boxing. Ohhh he was a hundred and 154 not 160. Who gives a ****. its six goddamn pounds. If six pounds keeps you from winning you dont belong in the sport.

Another funny thing is, how was jones able to beat ruiz. he was totally outweighed. Or you could look at the heavyweight division where guys are 30 pounds heavier then there opponent. No one says **** then.

no rasta bad boy sit, guys like heanrs, leonard, mccallum,jackson,norris,grahm, etc are all legned LIGHT middleweight thats 154 pounds, all those guys have fought for the middleweight 160 title, some have won it, but none of those guys are in the top 5 middle weights of all time maybe some in the top 10, 154 nad 160 are two very very different divsions, also JuyJuys brit boys are great Super middle weights at 168 pounds, there all diff fighters in different divsions, 6 pounds does make a difference

Bottomline is, if Taylor's gonna hold all those middleweight titles, HE'S GOING TO EARN THEM!

Like Hopkins did when he fought Daniels, Hakkar, Joppy and Allen? - consecutively! LOL.

This uneven application of the rules, if you can actually find any WBC rules, is CORRUPT, plain and simple.

The real agenda is that the WBC wants to split the belts and disunify the middleweight title. Props to Taylor if he chooses to take Winky next, but based on how Hopkins was treated, Taylor could fight 4 bums next and the WBC can go **** itself.
