    Who do you want to see Taylor up against next. Another tune up against a journeyman? A fight with a gatekeeper/contender or straight title shot?

    I say throw him in with Sergio Mora, Mora is a smaller fighter who has seen better days and if he wins that impressively lets see him vs Brian Vera

    Think his plan is to fight at middleweight. Would be a good fight though.

    Peter Quillin.


    Jermaine Taylor is more skilled. But Q has that game changing power. Could be interesting.

    Hopefully he moves up gradually, no rush.

    Good pick, Mora lost his last fight to Vera too if I remember :think
    Only thing is that he's almost impossible to look good against.

    If Manfredo hadn't retired, he'd of been perfect.

    Unless Dirrell fights at 160 otherwise I doubt it. I don't think Taylor will move up to 168lbs anymore. I think Taylor should fight another tune-up or journeyman and then to a title fight. I hope Arthur Abraham comes to MW too! With guys like Abraham, Martinez, Taylor, Proksa, Pirog, Golovkin, Lee, Quillin,

    Pavlik is up at 168 and was recently detained for driving under the influence.

    Pointless fight. Pavlik beat him twice already. Beating an alcoholic, shot version of the guy that beat you twice would prove nothing.
