New York/St. Charles, Mo. - Tomorrow night former undisputed middleweight champion Jermain "Bad Intentions" Taylor (30-4-1, 18KO's) will step back into the ring and continue on his comeback trail as he takes on Raul Munoz (21-15-1, 16KO's) in a 10-round middleweight bout. Highlights of the bout will be aired on ShoBox: The New Generation. In the ShoBox main event blue-chip prospect Jose "Sniper" Pedraza (10-0, 6KO's) looks to keep his unblemished record intact when he takes on Philadelphia's Tevin Farmer (7-3-1, 1KO) in an eight-round lightweight matchup.

The only way he becomes a "champion" again is if one of the title holders gets stripped, and Taylor gets to fight for a vacant title against a nobody.

Taylor may get some wins here and there but he isn't beating any top 10 MWs ever again, he has no punch resistance anymore and never had a killer instinct good athletic talent though.

Just be happy to still have paydays jermain..your best days are long gone bro..I really wish Dibella would talk some reality to this guy..I liked Jermain but he got lazy, really lazy...don't join the long list of fighters sticking around way past their time being up..

Isn't Taylor slurring real bad and has severe signs of brain damage? I couldn't stand to watch someone like that get punched over and over....he should not be boxing.

I highly doubt that. I mean we talking about a guy that was just floored by a club fighter.

But I guess its people like me that motivate him.

I really like Jermain, and the idea of his fighting scares the crap out of me. He looks like he is going to be punch drunk and brain damaged if he fights much more. His stamina problems and lack of punch resistance will get him BADLY hurt if he continues. You had some good wins champ. Think about the rest of your life.

Taylor has all his life had a speech impediment. They talked about it a lot when he was up and coming. It isn't boxing related it's just something he's been born with. Though he may have some brain damage im not sure. I only wish him the best, and he takes care of himself. He used to be one of my favorite fighters in the sport, so I just hope he knows when enough is enough.

I really doubt that he'd beat any of the MW titlists. Hell, I doubt he'd make it past Proksa at this point.

The way these damn sanctioning bodies work, he probably sadly will. Good luck to him. I hope he does not get badly hurt in the ring.
