Right now it’s not Jermain Taylor that’s the draw. People want to see me fight Jermain Taylor. If Taylor was fighting another junior middleweight, he wouldn’t get any money either. People want to see me and him fight. I guarantee you that if me and Edison Miranda weren’t on the same card as Cory Spinks and Jermain Taylor, that venue wouldn’t have been half as packed. I told Cameron that if the money is right for Taylor then I’m not going to sit there and complain about the money. I’m just glad to get my shot. I’m glad he stepped up to the plate and is taking the fight."

Need more like him in boxing










i like this guy more and more everytime he steps in the ring or opens his mouth.

i dont think hes ready for jermain yet, though. i think that he should have had one more fight (arthur abraham, perhaps?) before stepping in the ring with taylor.
