    I badmouth Froch alot because he is so damn easy to dislike, and he is not a world class fighter. However, I do hope DiBella manages to pull a fight out of this mess. I'd love to see JT win another title, and it would do my heart good to watch JT hand Froch his ass on a boxing glove.

    froch will beat taylor. he's big at the weight, has very good power and is a hard fighter to work out.

    taylor is lazy, his power is non existant, his technique is very sloppy.

    So far your in the lead in the annual ESB Ridiculous Analysis Contest. The year is young, so you'll have to continue to operate at this level, but hang in there. You CAN win, and I'll be pulling for you:yep

    Lou DiBella is an old, fat, wrinkled talking dick with ears.

    WTF is DiBella on about about PPVs? Name one person who Taylor could actually land a fight with to get on HBO PPV???

    I think Dibella's reference to PPV was in the event that the Taylor-Froch fight doesn't get picked up by HBO or Showtime. The Pavlik/Cotto card is going to be PPV, for instance, because it couldn't get adequate network support.

    What I'm wondering is, if the rumors about Bute's camp going after Jeff Lacy for a March fight are true, why not go after Taylor instead? Dibella is on the record saying they would make Taylor-Bute in Montreal, and Taylor is looking for a March date, probably on Showtime.

    Taylor-Bute, March 28 on Showtime makes perfect sense, assuming Taylor-Froch doesn't get made first.

    Ahhhh get ya :good

    But Showtime would have the fight, maybe doesn't bring in enough cash? I don't know what the deal with Taylor-Froch is, both spouting off different stories....shame because I think it would make an excellent fight.

    Taylor doesn't have many options and the WBC Top 15 is shocking at the moment.
