    I have a few observations...
    1. First, HBO has done a great job producing these shows, better opening credits. The shots were great, interviews, and personal profiles also great.
    2. Erica Taylor is Smokin'! Oh man, i wanna get up in that!
    3. Taylor-Pavlik II (first time in amatuers) is gonna be very diferent. Like Jack Lowe i hope that Taylor and Stewart are not banking on the first fight as to what will happen the next time.
    4. Both Taylor and Pavlik look in great shape!
    5. Winky beat Taylor.
    6. A Dubya, doesnt mean Jermain won. Just ask his own hometown DJ's. Taylor has more experience and has been in bigGer fights but that doesnt mean JACK in the ring.
    7. Taylor avoided Edison Miranda, and Pavlik destroyed him.
    8. Miranda hits harder than Hopkins, Wright, Ouma, and Spinks, so how is Taylor gonna hurt Pavlik?
    9. Emmanual Stewart is a great trainer, if Taylor wins, it has to go down as one of Stewart greatest wins....
    10. I think the Poconos training facility is the best choice for Taylor, no distractions.
    11. Experience is a great thing to have, but hunger is the best motivational tool! Pavlik is very hungry, and looks to be very focused for this fight.

    Bottom line, as you could have guessed, im picking Pavlik via 10th round KO, or TKO.

    Good points, don't agree with 5 and 7. Number 8 is an interesting point. Taylor needs to be very accurate and accumulate damage on Pavlik. Gonna be good regardless of the outcome.

    Damn, it's strange how everyone is giving Taylor no chance at all here.

    After watching i see emanuel steward taking taylor back to the basics and the fact that taylor's own hometown is against him,i think we will see the best of taylor in this fight,i'm still going with taylor by ud.

    His only chance is to box & run. Ala Floyd. But he don't have that skills either. Kelly knows how to cut the Ring & taylor will ran out of space to run.

    I understand why people would think everyone is riding the "Pavlik Hype train" but the fact is that i think Pavlik is young & hungry, a better boxer & puncher, and Jermain doesnt seem to be taking instruction well.

    Even Jermains former trainer said that he had hit a wall with Jermain, and thats why they brought in Stewart.

    Taylor has too many flaws, and Pavlik will expose them come next week, both are in great shape and there should be no excuses as to why one lost.

    Pavlik 10th round KO, or TKO

    His hometown ain't against him, just fickle fans that are jumping off the bandwagon.

    Great show - HBO does a great job producing these. Sometimes, the countdowns can be more exciting than the fight itself. However I don't believe that will be the case with this fight. Saturday couldn't come any sooner...

    Great show... However, needed a little about Kelly's old school training. From Y-town.

    HBO needed to do a 24/7 piece.

    Taylor UD or Late TKO. Does anybody know when was the last time a Manny trained fighter has lost?
