    If TTT is serious about defending then he better sort out his nutrition and weight cut properly then, because Chon has the power to stop him if he's off like last time out.

    I'm conflicted in this as whilst I'd much rather see Taylor vs Zepeda, Catterall deserves a rematch.

    If I was Chon I'd not be keen on Glasgow either ;) :p

    My money is on Zepeda. Latest Taylor is average at best

    But steel is heavier than feathers.

    Technically, steel is denser than feathers.

    A pound of steel = a pound of feathers

    In hat way is Zepeda a drained Light Welterweight?

    He spent mst of his career at 135

    People give Mell crap for rematching fights thay could have gone either way, but won’t criticize Taylor for the Catterall fight he clearly lost. Dude was always overrated.

    Not a good look by not rematching Caterall.

    Look at the weigh in for Zepeda's last two fights against Lundy and Vargas. He looked horrible.

    Taylor staying at 140 for another fight and it’s not Catteral is a clear duck ! Not even an argument imo.

    When has Taylor ever displayed a suspect mandible? He took clean shots from Prograis, Ramirez, and Baranchyk and never appeared close to being stopped.

    Zepeda, whom I consider a very good fighter, was dropped three times against Baranchyk if memory serves.

    Absolutely should give Catterall a rematch. Amazes me that he won't do it; would be a big money fight
    in the UK. He's either afraid of Cat, or dislikes him so much that he won't give the English lad the payday.
