http://www.gympietimes.com.au/storydisplay.cfm?storyid=3771861 HE'S already sparred with Anthony Mundine, now Gympie boxer Chris Stewart has gone toe to toe with "The Man's" next world title opponent Shannon Taylor. Stewart and Impact Boxing Academy team-mate Israel Kani will fight at Kawana tomorrow night, and this week jumped at the chance to get in the ring with one of Australia's best middleweight fighters. "The boys were invited to spar whilst Shannon was on a training camp at the Gold Coast," trainer Mark Evans said. "Shannon is tipped to be Mundine's next opponent and was on the coast for a one-week training camp, and was looking for quality sparring partners....
Rest assure mundine will fight taylor at 160 1st up. He will always pick his mark & probably call out pittman after the taylor debacle. Then he might be brave enough to pull on one of the top fella's at middle but don't count on it. Sturm at best would be his bravest selection.
:nono MUNDINE WILL NOT BE FIGHTING SHANNON TAYLOR UNLESS HE GETS BEATEN BY SOLIMAN. Taylor ain't in his plans.
