    I hope Taylor focuses on the Kesslers and Butes of this world. He's still got plenty to offer before he accepts the key to the senior management washroom.

    According to the Danish press they are close to sealing a deal on Taylor-Kessler. October is mentioned as the likely date. Unsurprisingly HBO seems to have a great say in this...

    Also mentioned is that Kessler is likely to fight on HBO sometime this spring. No opponent mentioned though - apparently Winky was offered tge fight, but declined.

    Thought this might be of interest to people here, even if promoter Palle's comments to the Danish press should always be approached with a great deal of caution.

    Bernard doesn't pull any punches in that talk, still seems to be bitter about Taylor, and a little delusional about how the fights went, he landed a few good rights late on, but I'd hardly call the fights Gatti like brutal. And the Elmer Fudd comment

    Bernard is playing his cards correctly making everyone angry so he has options and WILLING fighters to fight him even if he doesn't beat Calzaghe.


    I am no fan of shit talking the way Bernard did it right there...if you're going to talk shit at least have the cojones to actually fight these guys....or in Jermain's case, the talent to beat them

    Whats in it for Taylor?
    He beats Jones,so what? He beat up a tired old man at the end of his rope.
    What a triumph
    If Jones pulls one out of his you know what,Taylor has more or less trashed his career

    Very true, Jermain should focus on the youth of the division and let Jones fight on the senior tour with Hopkins

    JT needs a tune up fight vs name contenders or good journeymen...Jeff Lacy and Peter Manfredo would be warm welcomes to the 168 division for JT. And then he should be ready to take on the Bute's and Kessler's of the division.

    RJJ should fight guys like Allen Green or maybe Sakio Bika, that would be a good hard fight for him and test him
