    Taylor v Froch and Bute v Kessler is what i'm hoping for in 2009.

    Double standards much? That is exactly what Dawson did this October and you are all over him for it.

    At least thunder is consistent. :good

    It would be double standards if Taylor were the Champ and Froch the mandatory challenger looking to fight him and if Taylor gave up the belt to fight Inkin instead of Froch, after having ducked Froch a couple of times and promised repeatedly and signed contracts saying he would eventually fight him, and failed to, etc. etc....and you know it!

    No matter, I will continue to tell it like it is, Axe, whether you or the rest of my many ESB "fans" like it or not...:hi:

    If Taylor wins, more than likely he'll be facing the winner of Froch/Pascal.. I really would like to see Taylor fight Kessler though..

    Nonsense, it does not matter who held the title.

    Bottom line is that 2 fighters were mandated to fight in both circumstances, and both times the bigger name fighter of the two 'stepped aside' for a bigger payday. So if you say Dawson was ducking, you should label Taylor a ducker as well (and we both know that's not the case).

    You are right in that Dawson did break his word against Adi and did not fight him, lending some credence to your claim, but on the other hand Adrian pulled out of a fight with Dawson 2 weeks before the deadline, which Froch never did to Taylor, taking away from your 'Dawson ducking' claims.

    The situations are the same, though not exactly analogous. Just admit it. :good

    Froch vs Pascal should be a very good test, then Kessler after it.

    Taylor Vs Kessler is a fight Ive been wanting to see for ages.

    Taylor will beat Lacy. But if he fights the winner of Froch-Pascal it puts a Kessler fight right back and then who does Mikkel fight in the interim?

    Personally Id rather see it sooner than later. Id prefer him just to fight Kess after Lacy.
