In theory, your comparison sounds reasonable. But all the advantages you list for Taylor would apply in a comparison between him and Pavlik as...
Taylor hasn't knocked out anyone in a long time. He was considered a puncher when he rose to contender status, but at the elite level at 160, he...
Don't you see that this is always the story about Taylor: "IF he gets in shape and uses some of his experience..." - if only he had stayed...
