    If Taylor can use his jab consistently and circle to his right away from Pavlik's right hand bomb, he improves his chances, the problem with JT is that his brain doesnt always seem to work that well in the ring! And that is what we call a serious problem! Personally, I think this fight could go either way.....in other words Im sitting on the fence:lol:

    Pavlik's right is definitely his "bomb". But I think his left is slightly underated. Look at both Taylor and Miranda after the fights, and it's thier RIGHT side of the face most swollen. Miranda's right eye was all but shut.

    Pav's bomb right obviously lands to the left side of the face.

    I think it is vastly under rated by some. Pavlik is a natural leftie. Every time I see a photo of him signing something, it is with the left hand.

    But to the point of the thread. I don't care if Taylor's motivation is TWICE that of Pavlik. He seems to be using it in the wrong ways/direction. Another thing under rated is Team Pavlik's ability to study, prepare and execute a fight plan. They have studied the last fight in detail. Jermain claims he watched it a couple of times but can't stand to watch it. I hope for his sake that this is a ruse. Other wise he could get seriously hurt. Could he be having a physical reaction against watching it? If so, he is REALLY big trouble.
