Josh Taylor v Ivan Baranchyk

[powerpuncher]

I thought that Baranchyk bailed on the fight?

Is this on or off, can't seem to find a straight answer. Fat Dan said Baranchyk bailed and other fighters were forced to take legal action to get paid? It started as a great format but wbss is shaky. Feels like just a stir up tweet and release to let us know they still have a pulse but they have to do better than a couple of tweets. Regardless Taylor is the force right now, he'll cut Baranchyk to shreds.

It's a good fight, but I'll wait until they're in the ring. I hope the WBSS can hold it together. They really set a standard that the sport should try to adhere to, with the best (or most of the best) guys in a division facing off.

Rumor has it that WBSS hasn’t paid a lot of their fighters. Prograis is threatening to pull out now. This is looking bad. I really hope they fix it

Yea I heard that Prograis was considering leaving the comp. I hope they can hold it together. Because it really is a great format if they can get the top guys involved.

I heard they had set the date for Briedis/ Glowacki (Jun-15), and Taylor/ Baranchyk seems to be back on (May-1, so I'll keep my fingers crossed that they can cement the other fight dates.

‘He’s a f***ing idiot… I’ll give him a spanking’ – Josh Taylor rips into Adrien Broner after controversial American teases UK fight

The highly-rated Scot would love to welcome Broner to his home country

Scotland’s great boxing hope Josh Taylor has called for a bout against the man who used to be America’s top prospect – Adrien Broner.

The super-lightweight contender is currently competing in the World Boxing Super Series tournament, but is already eyeing potential opponents for once he is finished with the competition.

Loud-mouthed Broner was comprehensively beaten by eight-weight world champion Manny Pacquiao last month, but insisted he won the bout in an explosive post-fight interview – not out-of-character for the 29-year-old.

When asked about the interview, Taylor told Boxing Social: “I really don’t think that he believes he won that fight [against Pacquiao]. He’s a f***ing idiot.

“My personal opinion of him, I think he’s an a***hole, he’s really disrespectful.

“He’s an idiot, he’s an idiot.”



Adrien Broner recently teased the possibility of his next fight taking place in the UK.

Upon hearing this suggestion, Taylor said: “I’ve seen that, I would love to fight him, why not?

“After this tournament, if he wants to come over I’ll give him a wee spanking as well. I’d love to.”

I hate that Broner just keeps getting paydays. He should be fighting lower tier guys. It has been seen time and time again that he can’t compete with the top fighters. I thought he lost to Granados who isn’t a top fighter, but that is the tier of fighter he should be fighting.
