    Whether he landed more is debatable. I'm happy to concede that he might have...JUST.

    Which is why a close decision either way is acceptabe, but a lop-sided one is NOT.

    By the way, while Kelly might have landed slightly more the fact that Taylor landed the cleaner punches is not debatable. And the scoring guidelines state that CLEAN landed punches count more than all of the other criteria.

    HOW TO SCORE A FIGHT 101:

    1) CLEAN punching - Taylor easily.
    2) EFFECTIVE aggressiveness - Pavlik just (aggressiveness, no doubt. But effective aggressiveness...?)
    3) Ring generalship - Tie. Neithey guy bothered with this much.
    4) Defence - Taylor easily.

    Drexel he threw almost 400 more punches, mostly jabs. I think it is pretty easy to say he landed more. IMO.

    Look at the FIGHT not the stats.

    The general pattern for the majority of the fight was....

    - Pavlik throwing a basic jab-jab-straight right, most of the time with ALL of the punches hitting Taylor's guard.
    - Taylor throwing in flurries, with most of his shots going between Kelly's loose guard or landing on his body.

    I am looking at the fight. I watched it again and I still believe Kelly landed more. I think Kelly broke threw Jermaine's defense more than Jermaine broke his. Jermaine fought in flurries and yes, he did connect, but I didn't think it was as often as Kelly's basic 1-2. Again IMO.

    Fine, like I said I'm happy with Pavlik to win and a close decision either way is fair.

    But all the Pavlickers agreeing with a lopsided score are just making themselves look like stupid newbies who have no idea about the rules of the sport.
