    I used to love watching Winky at 154, he was a true craftsman but he has no business at 168.

    HBO knows what its doing, Froch is not even famous in the hardcore boxing community let alone the U.S.

    Froch wants to be on HBO he should get don king as a promoter, calzaghe waited years to get on hbo, the reason the klitchko are on hbo is it the heavy weight division.....There espn in america, an if froch wanted jump on there a few times, bute did it, an still does it, he will be seen by america, it doen't pay as much. I like to see kessler try to get on espn, an get his way back on HBO, i think he a great fighter to watch, an to me bute/kessler is one of the best showdown i can see for the future, i rather see that then a taylor vs one of them.........

    haha , I am sorry but Froch looks VERY VERY beatable .... I love the ignorant bashing of a boxer... OH HE IS JUST SCARED!!!! Taylor got KTFO by Pavlik and Immediately wanted a rematch... I don't think its that at all... Boxing is a ****ing business , run by the promoters .... the sooner your dumbass understands this the better.

    Taylor's promoter was trying to make this fight happen on HBO, that's how it got rejected. Get a clue.

    Winky must have photos of some HBO exec getting a lapdance from DLH at a drag club or something. They are way too quick to bend over backwards for this guy.

    why don't the british networks step up to the plate and make Taylor an offer he can't refuse.

    What HBO needs is a weekly boxing discussion show where they can spotlight different fighters and bring guys like Froch and other good boxers from over seas to the lime light of the boxing market here in America.

    Taylor - Wright II

    is long over due, and I blame Winky for it, but its time for this buisness to be finished.

    The first fight was exciting and I expect the rematch to be as well.

    I guess HBO doesn't do much polling in London.
