    I heard Winky wont fight Forrest cause they are friends or Jones jr either for that same reason.

    They both want the same things, not quite the same opponents... Winky should be looking to get back on track against Taylor ( setting the record right) and Roy is awaiting for the winner of some of the LHWT bouts that are going to take place... Winky has said a long time ago ( in the Mosley post-fights interview) that he wants to make some money at this point and RJJ can't be possibly thinking of any other subject or motivation to fight - he has 18 year old twin sons for Chrissake!

    I dont' think Taylor would take another winky fight. High risk low reward for that one. I would like to see him fight Pavlik although I'm sure that wont happen. And I would like see Roy fight the winner of calzaghe/hopkins.

    Taylor has to fight someone to get himself back on track and this is a guy who says he doesn't need tune-up fights and only fights the best... Well, maybe he will be more courageous than what I expect and he'll go right into the lap of someone like Kessler in Denmark, Bute in Canada or Miranda in a loser-can-retire match... Concerning Roy, I have no doubts whatsoever that he'll go for Calzaghe in Wales ( or Hopkins in a career farewell fight), problem is whether Cal or Hops want Jones - I would like to see that as well.

    Taylor would take a Wright rematch, Jermain will fight pretty much anybody.
    But it was Wright who refused a rematch with Taylor for the undisputed championship. So with no title on the line, why would anyone think Primma Donna Wright would take on Taylor now?
    As far as Jones is concerned, I'd love to see him fight Taylor. But Roy is way too careful for a high risk match like that.

    lets get one thing straight, at this point in his career Rjj cant decide that he will fight the winner of BHop and JC. Its the winner of that fight who will decide whether he will fight Rjj or someone else. I think Rjj should take on the winner of tarver-woods or johnson-dawson

    Michael Spinks was the classiest boxer of late times ( nothing like his ******ed brother) but I would like to get one Boxing Illustrated pic where he has gloves and a tuxedo. I wish that night in Trump's Plaza never had happened but yes, I am Jinx fan and proud of it.
