    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.

    I am very dissapointed. :-(

    Willie should go for Thaxton, maybe.

    I think that Limond would run Thaxton ragged

    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.

    Disappointing news. Hope he can get another decent fight sorted quickly.

    Good luck Willie if you're reading! :good
