Are you Taylor apologists prepared to be driven into the ground for the final time?

    Taylor will be beat, I expect sooner this time also.

    I don't call Pavlik a B level fighter. He has solid fundamentals, power, keeps his hands high, and fights with killer instinct and heart. He has finished his opponents in his division and done so with class. In my book, thats an A level fighter.

    Are you calling him B level because he can't beat Calzaghe or Kessler? Since when do we assign letter grades to fighters based on whether they can beat the competition in the weight class above them?

    That's how I feel. He's going to go in there trying not to get KOed and last a tad bit longer, but in the end he will be stopped.


    I wouldn't be surprised if Taylor got blown out early though, considering, he's just so afraid he leaves himself open and Pavlik booming with confidence takes hi mout.

    I disagree with you guys about this.

    If Taylor fights like this Pavlik is going to press his advantage and KO him even sooner. Pavlik will smell blood and finish him.

    There is a substantial difference between Taylor fighting like this against Pavlik and, for example, Barrera trying this against Pac. Barrera is multi-faceted and can box. Jermain Taylor isn't that type of fighter.

    In fact, I think the only way he can last long is to get Pavlik's respect early.

    Taylor will win this time around! Don't get me wrong Taylor was pissing me off all the way through his fight with Pavlik.. I wanted pavlik to win, but it was more so to teach Taylor a lesson and shut humble his ass! But now I think he can beat pavlik... I wouldn't be mad if Pavlik wins, but he wont!

    I went against Pavlik when he fought Miranda and also when he fought against Taylor. It's probably my fault because I only really watched 2 of his fights and THOUGHT he was overrated. Now I'm going with Pavlik by KO. Taylor doesnt have very good movement and can't really move laterally that well. Whenever he's being hit he just backs up and kinda stays on the ropes and that's bad against a puncher like Pavlik. Pavlik by KO again.

    I called Pavlik TKO7 the first fight, and I'm going with Pavlik in 6 for this one. He'll go back to Youngstown...with a record of 33-0 (30). Taylor is getting knocked out again.

    I predicted Pav in 8 for the first fight, but that is the same thing i was saying since the McKart fight:yep

    This time I got Pav in 5. All these people who are saying JT will win a decision do not have a source of information. They are just guessing when they Taylor will try to box and move more. If the did a little research, and found out what JT has been saying they would realize he'll come in looking for a ko, and that will lead to Pavlik taking him out in under 5 rounds.

    You are just mad because we both know Taylor is going to get his revenge in this one.

    what r u sayin...taylor says he's fine with a Decision win and that he doesnt have to prove himself to anyone by knocking pavlik out
