Little Rock`s Holiday Parade on Saturday
will be without Olympic boxing medalist Jermain Taylor.
Taylor had to cancel because he has to train for a fight in
Connecticut early next month.
Taylor is a Little Rock native who won a bronze medal in the
2000 Olympics and is 18-0-0 as a professional.
The parade itself will go on as scheduled, at 4 p.m. Saturday
through downtown Little Rock. Featured in the parade will be more
than 50 marching groups, floats, bands, classic cars, and other
entries.
After the parade will be the annual lighting ceremony on the
Capitol lawn.
