    Extra:

    Has Cory Stinks already been ****-canned by cable TV? His career has flopped ever since he got KO'd by Judah in '05..... That '06 comeback against Roman Karmazin wasn't diddly **** to me....:rasta

    Sad but true. I feel sorry for Taylor because Froch is a decent opponent I bet they wouldn't give a **** about him fighting Winky if they hadn't fought before.

    Exactly what I was thinking. If Taylor would have had some knockouts in there maybe it would have made his fights interesting. He had some power when he was moving up the ranks, but he stopped knocking guys out after Bernard.

    Since HBO doesn't want Taylor, you have to wonder who they will pick next as their young star? Dawson?

    I think so. They wouldn't even consider Dawson/Tarver II if Antonio Tarver hadn't knocked out Jones :D

    Showtime is going reap the benifits from the fighst that HBO will most certainly drop the ball on ..Taylor /Froch being the first one !

    Boxers, Promoters and Broadcasting companies must start being reasonable and smart about the ongoing financial crisis which will only worsen over the next 2 years until the '' Head of the Illuminati Pyramid '' finally get their long wished One World Government and Currency. Therefore to get compelling fights on tv, the numbers asked for will need to be diminished....the Klondike is almost over !!!

    To increase revenues from very soon...on, a fight card will need to add more than just one big fight !

    What a dam shame. I like Taylor a lot. Hopefully we get to see the fight on tv.

    HBO is still interested in Taylor as long as he will be their puppet and take meaningless big-money fights like a Winky rematch, instead of challenging himself by chasing titles in the SMW division which is largely dominated by non-Americans who HBO could give two shits about.
