    Yeah, in fact this is straight off the AP and ESPN's Dan Rafael immediately following the June 17 matchup.

    Wright was quoted in the post-fight press conference saying:

    "What do you expect? I'm essentially in his hometown. They gave him what he wanted. I don't want no rematch. There are other fights out there. The fans know who won the fight. I came to his hometown and showed everybody I'm the champ. I don't want a rematch. If I have to come here and get that kind of decision, what's the point?"

    On top of that, Taylor's promoter, Lou Dibella seemed content with Wright's claim, stating:

    "We will never fight this fight again. The rematch will never happen. Winky said he doesn't want one. Fine with us."

    That was less than three months ago. Funny how things change.

    [I actually put together a writeup on the fight, just my newb thoughts and opinions from my old blog, check it out if you tryin' to catch up on the fight.

    There was an article right here in BS about a week ago saying that Winky now wanted a rematch. Did you catch that?

      Yeah I caught it, and I understand why Winky would want to fight Taylor again.

      I was just referring to what WInky and Taylor's trainer said back in June immediately following the draw.
