Taylor knows that he can be knocked out by pavlik...taylor will be EXTRA cautious and eventually that sliding back with the left hand down style of his will only invite more straight rights....it will be alot earlyer... PAVLIK KO 5
taylor will be scared of pavlik he`ll never b the same y=taylor not that i like him, but i dont think he`ll have that passion any more to take hard shots an keep goin. pavlik tko 4
In the first rounds Taylor looked better in the first fight. I don´t think the fight ist that clear. Both might win the second clash.
Even though an early KO for Pavlik is the most likely outcome, if Taylor can be elusive and do what Cory Spinks did to him, he could win the rematch. But even Cory Spinks would get knocked out by Pavlik so.....
If this fight goes to decision it will be because Taylor is being extremely cautious and probably losing rounds. Of course, on HBO he might get the decision. I highly doubt he will go the distance though. Eventually he will tire, abondon his gameplan and go to the quiet place again.
If Taylor boxed behind his jab and avoided Pavlik all night he might pull out a boring UD, but i can't see him doing that at all. I see another toe-to-toe battle, Pavlik KO5.
I agree with that. The reason Pavlik got knocked down was because he was clowning around, goading Taylor like a Mayorga would do. He won't engage in that BS in the rematch. Pavlik can end the fight if he employs the stiff power jab right off the bat. That's the weapon that led to Taylor's KO. I predict Jermain will seriously consider retirement after this rematch loss.
