    Top Rank / ESPN.

    it’s a great opportunity for him as Ramirez is with them too. “Multi fight deal” so I assume a warm up before a big unification.

    Just a shame that another one of Britain’s finest has left us for the riches of America. 4/5am fights are becoming the norm.

    Surprising- I would have thought he would have gone with Eddie, especially with a nice easy fight with Ritson apparently on the table.

    it will be interesting if sky get the UK coverage for his next fight.

    Oh wow, I didn’t think about Cyclone. I wonder who his new trainer will be?

    They really have no need to go so public, it changes nothing. Just keep quiet and go to court if necassary!

    If it brings the Taylor vs Ramirez undisputed fight closer to happening then I'm well on board with it.

    Cyclone seem to be doing something seriously offkey behind the scenes. That is too many fighters now that have left in suspicious circumstances. I'm sure the truth will come out in time.

    I don’t no mate I feel for both sides cyclone are just not big enough to satisfy a big star like Josh Taylor now they did a tremendous job of him and Frampton, but the n the grand scheme of things they can’t compete with the likes of top rank match room etc etc who have the backing of big tv companies , if he has broke a contract that is wrong for sure but the money Taylor can make now being the star he is cyclone should wish him all the best and let him earn his fortunes in what is a short career.

    Exactly. Great move by him. Couldn't care less who people sign for as long as we get to see the best fight one another.

    But there always seems to be tensions between fighters and them. Frampton was friendly with both Shane and Barry but it ended in tears. Is that one still going to court?

    Taylor isn't one to go the path of least resistance
