    What were they watching??? They were watching what HBO told them to watch - ANOTHER undeserved "victory" for Taylor. :nod

    Just like in those THREE gift decisions against Hopkins and Wright! :yep

    Taylor thought he was losing, Steward thought he was losing and Steward thought he lost the first round.

    I had it 4-2 Pavlik.

    Nothing "strange" about it, sir - in fact, it is entirely consistent with Taylor's entire career since HBO got him his title shot against Hopkins. Basically, if you didn't knock out HBOs poster-boy, you were guaranteed to lose on the cards.

    This is just more evidence showing how HBO is corrupting this sport and gaming things for their fighters. :yep Taylor is only the worst and most obvious example of this - and it SUCKS.:fire

    I've heard people say Taylor was ahead 6-0 (ESPN's card), 5-1, or at worst 4-2. If they watch it again, it was definitely Pavlik's fight.

    There were several very close rounds. I had Taylor up by 1 point after 6 rounds. ESPN had Taylor pitching a shutout! That's just bad judging.

    As far as I'm concerned, many posters on this site are more knowledgable than Dan Rafael.

    There is a strong case to be made that Pavlik won rounds 1, 3, 4, and 6. It was close, but he was being the aggressor and landing hard shots while backing Jermain up.
