Exactly!! As much as I like Miranda, and his Story, the guy is basic, and 1demensional! Anyone w/a little accuracy and a good punch beats him. Tyalor would've knocked him out too and that's w/out getting hit as much! Pavlik is a good fighter, but Taylor is going to show him how top fighters fight. He's going to see in Taylor a fighter who counters well, has speed and movement, and punches accurately. I think ppl are taking to much out of the Miranda fight, and actually putting Taylor on Miranda's level! Big Mistake, and I can't wait til sunday morning when all these bandwagoners are in awe cause there boy Pavlik got Ko'd/Tko'd! "Has Jermain Taylor Benn Tested as Pavlik Was Tested Against Miranda?" Now that's a stupid question!! As a matter of fact Miranda was Tailor made for Pavlik. It wasn't much of a test at all, and it wasn't because Pavlik is that good!!:nono
Taylor didn't have to be tested. Why worry - the HBO suits make sure the judges have their scorecards filled out before the fight even starts. Too bad you can't get a gift decision when you're OUT COLD on the canvas, huh?? Pavlik is gonna destroy this fraud - and earlier than people think, too! Can't wait! :happy
terrible post. nah lol j/k post makes sense. and as valid points. But I dont agree with the outcome. if you changed it to Taylor KO 9 then we would b in agreement
Pavlik has beat much tougher guys then Taylor has:nono Who has Taylor beat Hopkins the most over rated fighter in history:-( Powder puff puncher Winky Wright and little men Ouma and Spinks:verysad and he looked so so at best doing it:yep On the other hand the Ghost beat very tough and dangerous fighters in Zuniga, Zertuche and Miranda all guys in there primes, in tough all out action bouts:bbb
ACB cmon man..your saying BESIDES bhop and winky he hasnt fought anyone..and Pavs has only fought miranda who is overrated i may add..cmon lets look at this fight with an even head..the better boxer usually wins..and thats taylor the only chance pavs has is by KO.and taylor is to smart to exchange blows with this guy..so im looking at Taylor by decision or late KO/TKO due to the frustration from pavlik trying to get inside and leaving himself open.
Name those 4 or 5 fighters on taylors resume that would beat miranda. Name any ONE besides hopkins and wright.
Teetop answer me this..if pavlik fought who taylor has fought do you think he would be undefeated still??
Zakman, I'm starting to think you're not actually a real person, but a spam generator that automatically posts the same thing over and over in any thread that has Taylors name in the title. Still waiting on the evidence that proves this HBO conspiracy you keep mentioning...
Taylor is more tested than Pavlik IMO. Power is so overrated on ESB that's it's not even funny. People always tend to underrate things like defense, footwork and ring generalship all far more important than just power. Taylor was tested in the later rounds by an ATG in Hopkins in their first fight that but Pavlik facing an overrated crude slugger in Miranda is a harder test?atsch When will people learn that power isn't the end all be all in boxing.:-(
