i don't get why they'd want options on limond anyway. how marketable would he have been for beating salita?
Its called a cold feet deal. They make the match, **** themselves then set ridiculous terms to make it unrealistic. Limond-Thaxton anybody?
Limond Vs Thaxton would be a great matchup, Willie has a real good chance and Isn't as faded as Thaxton.
Limond-Thaxton would be massively intriguing. I think Willie needs a couple of warm up fights first. I'd like to see him take on maybe Al Hamadi then Bredis Prescott before stepping up in class against Thaxton ;-)
Wasn't this called off when they rescheduled the the main event? I'm sure I read that on here a while ago... Perhaps it was back on again...
Man, Im gutted to hear Willie has pulled out & the fight wont happen now... I was well hyped for this fight too. Thought Willie had a good chance of pulling off the win.
No offence to Willie - he's a nice guy - but he's not on Thaxton's level at the moment. He's just won the European belt, and is looking to move on towards a world title shot. Willie, while as I said I have a lot of respect for the guy, hasn't reached European level yet.
but was earmarked for a star turn at madison square garden, and in talks for a further 3 fights under salita's management team :rofl what do they know that you do'nt?
Disappointing news. Hope he can get another decent fight sorted quickly. Good luck Willie if you're reading! :good
