I know the WBSS has been sort of a mess this season, but man was I looking forward to the Taylor fight. This is a total shame, and I also feel bad for Taylor.

Is he tired of waiting to hear word on the date of the final?

Probably didn't get the money fronted like he was supposed to or something along those lines? That's what the others who had beef with the WBSS were complaining out.

I think it is fair to say this will likely be the last season of the tournament.

What happens if he pulls out? Do they bring back someone like Kiryl Relikh for the final?

We got details.

Did he get paid. He mad that there is no date vs Taylor yet.

I know Monster vs Donaire just got a date so I was hoping Regis vs Josh would be getting a date soon, but this isn't a good sign we are gonna see it.

Can't blame Regis if he's not been paid or is tired of waiting for details. Its beyond f#cking ****** how badly WBSS/Sauerland has been commuicating with the boxers in the tournament.

If they continue they need to f#cking figure sh^t out better for season 3.

the bottom line is that money promised to Prograis, was not delivered by the deadline, and then they felt they were being jerked around on the date and venue of the Taylor fight. So with that, this match-up has seemingly gone to 'bolivian

Can we still get the Taylor fight outside of the damn amateurish tournament??

I think as long as they both keep winning it'll happen.

140 is becoming more interesting, but its not quite THAT interesting at the top that would result in these two not running into each other soon one way or another.
