:huh I had it: rd1: 10-9 Taylor rd2: 10-8 Taylor rd3: 10-9 Pavlik rd4: 10-9 Pavlik rd5: 10-9 Taylor (easliy could have been 10-9 pavlik) rd6: 10-9 Pavlik I can see at worst 57-56 Taylor, but 59-54??? :rofl
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.
Just another day at the office for House Boys Only Taylor. I was surpised that Lampley didnt kiss Taylors ass as much as he usually does.
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
yup....originally I had it 4-2....I watched it again this morning on HBO2 and gave the 5th to Taylor by a hair, but that was really pushing it..... still, 59-54? christ! :nut
1 Pavlik 10-9 2 Taylor 10-8 3 Pavlik 10-9 4 Pavlik 10-9 5 Taylor 10-9 6 Pavlik 10-9 I had it 4-2 for Pavlik during the time of the stoppage
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.
here are the judges scores: This content is protected how the F#&(* did anyone see round 6 or 4 for Taylor?
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.
