I applaud Taylor and think this is great news.......He is a true Champ even if he has yet to dominate at the top yet he is trying and you have to give him alot of credit for that......
Jermaine Taylor. Turns down Ouma to fight an Immediate rematch with Winky.!!

Originally posted by Em1While I am excited about this fight, I know how this will end. The same way all of Taylor's big fights end, in a BS decision to continue protecting HBO's investment.You're calling those bull**** decissions because you hate the results dude, common be real.
Bhops has 49 fights and was the No 1 P4P fighter at that time, Winky has 53 fights and the No 2 P4P fighter, now do you really expect a guy like Taylor who's got only 20 plus fights to dominate these kind of oppositions? Squeeking a very close decission or a draw against these fighters is already quite an accomplishment for a guy with 25 fights.
Let your brain function and analize the situation before you post something that makes you sound ******, really ******. IF there's anything here that people should see and realize, it's Taylor being the real deal.
Taylor doesn't have the best of skills among the fighters but he do have a fighting heart and the balls to go for it, prove himself in the ring and get respect.Comment

i'm glad taylor wants to fight wright again. first off those two need to rematch each other, and second i didn't like the ouma fight all that much. mostly for the fact that ouma was moving up in weight, and that taylor is so much bigger. plus ouma takes a lot of shots, and against taylor that wouldn't be the best thing to be doing, taking one or two to get one like ouma normally does.
ouma vs taylor would be spirited, but a one sided beating by taylor. ouma doesn't have the strength to keep taylor off him, and he's out gunned. taylor has ouma on height, weight, reach, power and hand speed. uphill battle for ouma. ouma should try and make a statement in 154lb division.Comment

TAYLOR-WRIGHT II FALLING APART FASTER THAN IT SEEMED TO BE COMING TOGETHER!
By G. Leon
WINKY TO TAYLOR: 50-50 or no fight!
Over the past couple of days there has been a buzz throughout the boxing world about the Jermain Taylor-Winky Wright rematch taking place later this year on HBO PPV. After both Taylor and Wright came on the record making it clear that they want the fight, the business reps for both fighters opened discussions to see if an agreeement could be reached. Offers were made to Wright, which the former junior middleweight king is unwilling to accept. Although Wright is being offered nearly two million dollars more than he was guaranteed for the first Taylor fight, the Winkster says, "there's no way the fight is happening unless it's 50-50. I took the 55-45 split for the first fight just to prove that I'm the best middleweight out there. I don't think fans should blame Jermain but the people behind him need to come up with a 50-50 offer otherwise there's not going to be a fight! This isn't about how much more I'm making for this fight, this is about me getting treated fairly. I've been taking shorts my whole career and now that I've proven myself they got to do right by me." With the Taylor fight seeming far less likely than it did after yesterday's discussion, ********** asked Wright who he would be fighting on HBO World Championship and according to the pride of St. Pete's, Ike Quartey appears to be the frontrunner as this goes to print. When informed of Wright's comments, Taylor promoter Lou DiBella told **********, "I say this with love, he ain't never fighting Jermain unless he leaves planet Winky to return to planet earth." Taylor advisor Ozell Nelson and Golden Boy CEO Richard Schaefer, who is currently out of the country, were unavailable for immediate commentComment
