    I really hope Catterall doesn't get robbed again, but it wouldn't shock me in the slightest if it happens again.

    I'm looking forward to the build up of this fight, no doubt there's going to be some bad blood after the controversy of the first fight.

    The rematch should be in England. I'm a firm believer that if someone fights you in your backyard/country then you should travel to theirs for the rematch. That being said, Jermello didn't fight Castanto in Argentina for their rematch, Dre didn't fight Kovalev in Russia for their one and even worse he wouldn't even agree to the appointment of a solitary neutral judge for it either despite having a home ref and three home judges for the first fight, and LSC wouldn't fight Frampton in his backyard once despite promising him he would do so.

    To be fair, the ref and judges for Taylor vs Catterall I were actually all from England apart from the lone Scottish judge, whereas, conversely Castanto and Kovalev were stitched up with three US judges for all four of those respective fights.

    I assume it came down to money with Taylor being a bigger draw in Scotland than Catteral is in the UK or it was simply Taylor not budging and wanting insurance by forcing the rematch to be in Scotland again.

    Ideally it should be in England, maybe somewhere north like Manchester as Catterall is from nearby Chorley. There have been plenty of big fights in Manchester and Scottish fans wouldn't need to travel too far.

    Catterall won't get robbed this time. Taylor's going to destroy him.

    Could be. Catterall's ugly spoiler style can't entice too many fans to come out for him but Taylor has fought in the US x 4 including his pro debut, England a few times, and Wales and Ireland too so Manchester or London would've been good.

    I like Catterall he's good but Taylor had his worst night and Catterall had his best night. You're definitely gonna see a better Taylor in this rematch, Taylor has to be the favourite.

    I think it will be a similar fight to the first one. Ugly. Taylor will win with less controversy but it will be a close fight. Whether Taylor was drained, surprised or just under par in the first fight, I think both styles will keep this fight close however many times they fight each other.
