    Hey guys hope all is well with everyone.

    There has been alot of talk going on about me overpricing myself with shannon taylor.

    I want to get things straight first. His manager offered me $3000 for the fight to fight in his home town.
    Of course i was going to say no to that. That was a total insult because i can get more for defending the aussie title in my own area.

    So guys i have not chickened out of the fight and i have definately not overpriced myself too.

    I really want this fight to happen. The only way you guys will see this fight is that someone will put up the purse money that i want or for the blaster team to come to the table with a better offer.

    cheers guys.

    Thanks for the info Junior. Would still love to see you fight Taylor but if he isnt going to put a fair offer on the table then so be it.

    Taylor is just a Grubass mug..

    3k to the oz champ is disgraceful..

    Mate dont even worry about him.If the fight happens then great but if it doesnt you can move onto bigger fish..

    What ball-park figure would they have to come up with for you to fight him in his backyard?

    Yeah $3k to be honest is peanuts.

    Shannan Taylor is completely shot as a fighter these days & when he faces someone remotely world class he will be handed a bad beating.

    Jnr,

    Word from Blasters camp is that the offer was for 10k. Not saying that is the truth. But it is a lot more than 3k.

    I think I can settle this.

    The offer was 10 grand. $3K cash and $7K of blow which Jnr must sell. Im suprised Taylor let that much go from his personal stash but desperate times I guess.

    Is that 10k clear or to pay expenses out of it?

    If it's for the Aussie title 10k aint much really.

    FFS Les "MANBOOBS" Mason got $25k for his first pathetic fight :patsch

    Yes but side shows and ex NRL players make more money than real fighters in Australia. :yep

    I wasn't clear in what I posted previously. The 10k is what jnr is asking. Not what Taylors camp offered.

    My mail says Jnr is asking for 10k to do the fight.

    I guess jnr can set the record straight.
