    I'd actually really like Taylor vs. Lee as a styles clash, and of course there's the whole going back up against Steward angle.

    would be most intresting for sure but i think he needs to ease his way back with lighter hiting foes d.barker,sturm,or mora before he test those waters

    I like the idea of someone like Vera.

    Martinez...

    Why not, its at a weight he once ruled...Sooo why not come back and try to challenge for your old crown?

    Rubio is right. Or even a guy like Asikainan, in another 10 rounder.

    Mora, then Andy Lee. I'd also like to see him against Quillin. I would not like to see him against. Chavez Jr. I think that would be a dangerous for his health beatdown.

    lots of great choices though, regardless, Taylor would easily beat Mora or McEwan

    A Lee fight would be a very nice fit for that card with the winner to face Martinez. Taylor is clearly a level above Lee but that might be too much of a jump right now for Taylor, I'm on the fence with that one.

    I suspect Taylor is going to take it a bit slower than a Lee match up next and are more likely to face someone like Vera. Maybe if Taylor were to turn around and fight in late Jan/early Feb. than Lee in March would time nicely but I can't see Taylor fighting in 4 weeks.

    Quillin would be an interesting fight.

    Agreed. He'll test him some, but if Taylor can't beat a guy like Vera he might want to hang em up.
