    no the quote from my last post was from 'the art of war' in reference to the 'win first, fight later' from the book. when sun tzu wrote 'win first, fight later' he was referring to battling a country (oppenent, etc..) basically saying that if you can take over somewhere and impose your will and authority without actually killing anyone or fighting - then you save the fighting for later in which you will have more resources to fight with. Kind of like how Julius Ceaser took over egypt without fighting anyne. He just scared the population into thinking there would be a massacre when really he did not have the manpower to take it over by force. He just forged an alliance with Cleopatra and won over the territory that way. that gave him power because he now owned egypt and still had his army.

    I am a big on the ancient China culture and the story of the three kingdoms. Its a nerdy guilty pleasure of mine. Warfare is my thing.

    this would be the Sun Tzu version of what I was thinking of "Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win." and if i recall this was the part where he was talking about preparation.

    Very well put, JT is the Und. MW Champ and deserves respect. But my gut and being a fan of Pavlik, I say Pavlik KO 7.

    I think the bottom line is taylor does not have the power to hurt kelly, but pavlik can hurt jermain

    Yep, I think when Taylor wins, people will then not give credit and then say Pavlik was still green and never a proven guy anyways. Just like everyone fell off the Miranda bandwagon.

    It happens like that every time...Pavlik will be a hype job. People will argue that, that is the reason why they call him the "ghost"
