HBO losing interest in Jermain Taylor?

Sources close to former undisputed middleweight champion Jermain "Bad Intentions" Taylor provided Boxingtalk.com with some surprising news earlier today. It turns out that HBO will not approve Jermain Taylor's title challenge against undefeated super middleweight champ Carl Froch. Our sources inform us that HBO's list of Taylor opponents is so short (Winky Wright or Mikkel Kessler) that Taylor's braintrust could be inclined to shop Taylor to Showtime.
