    I doubt Soliman would be interested anyway; Taylor was a 3/1 dog. He was there to be an opponent with a random chance for a big upset, but was almost certainly going to get KTFO.

    Sergio Mora would probably be the only viable ranked guy that could save this bout should Taylor withdraw, but that would be a risky, even-money fight for Soliman.
    IMO, if Soliman did stay and they found a replacement, itd be Truax. He's a Haymon guy, but his chances of winning would be far lower. He has trouble making weight and activity seems to be a problem later on.

      I would be down to See Murata vs Soliman. I would pick Ryota Murata. He is too powerful for Soliman.

            I suppose. I would imagine espn would pay some money and whatever that amount was maybe its not worth it to them anymore. We'll see.

              Taylor's name value is damn-near nonexistant at this point. He's just serving the purpose of being another faded champ on some mediocre dude's resume.\
