Regis Prograis vs Josh Taylor will take place on October 5th in the UK

They should hold it in Glasgow.
Neutral venue being that Taylor has to travel from the east coast of scotland to the west coast and reg is coming from the other side in america.
Let them meet in the middle on neutral terrortory

 

It would make more sense to fight Hooker since he will be beating Ramirez tomorrow

 

It would have been huge in Scotland that's for sure. Taylor was recently voted the sportsman of the year in Scotland, so not sure how anywhere in that country would be considered neutral

 

Well andre ward considered the east coast of america neutral against froch lol

 

Prograis is about to collect another belt!

 

Yep, and because he’s a more compact puncher, that allows him to throw combinations that are more authentic, and allows him to operate better at mid to close range.

I’m undecided right now, with a slight lean towards Taylor. But that could change.

 

Brilliant double header on October 5th as we’ll get to see Fury vs Charles Martin aswell. Can’t wait.

 

That is a huge mistake from Regis to agree to go to the UK.

As much as I like Taylor, Regis will never get an honest referee nor an honest decision and will have almost everything stacked against him. Plus the boorish, rowdy Scottish fans on their own will be a huge factor.

Taylor by either UD dodgy or TKO.

They must have offered Regis a little extra cash to travel because that's not a good decision by his team.

 

But it will be held in England, not Scotland. Sure, it's still somewhat of a home advantage for Taylor, but nowhere near as much as it would have neen had it been held in Scotland, where pretty much the entire crowd are pro-Taylor.

In fact, with Taylor being Scottish and the fight, by all accounts, being held in England, look for the English fans to be backing Prograis.

Taylor will bring down a couple of thousand to Manchester or London. And both those venues hold around 20,000.

I was at the Taylor's quarter and semi-final fights at the SSE Hydro in Glasgow and both were nowhere near sellouts, and that was with the top tiers not even open.
