How come no one mentions Pavlik's shakey chin?

Anybody trying to say Taylor has no power because he didn't KO Hops, Wink, Spinks, and Ouma...I mean think about that. He was KOing everybody before the Hops fights.

 

Before Hopkins Taylor was considered to be a pretty big puncher he had 17 KO's in 23 fights, a +/- 74% KO rate. That combo he hit Pavlik with would have stopped a Moose if not most middleweights. He had serious leverage on those bombs, each was thrown with knockout intentions, and they were flush. The fact that Pavlik got up so quickly, on shaky legs, and then fought back well later in the round says a lot about his heart and ability to recooperate amazingly from serious barrage. That sequence hardly qualifies him for shaky chin status. If he continues down the same road in the future though, it's going to catch up with him and he will get ko'd, but I see Pav going back to the gym and working on his defense so he does not let that kind of situation happen again. I think he's smarter than he is macho. He dodged a bullet and he knows it and it will be a lesson well learned

 

JT never caught Ouma or Spinks flush.

 

:good

 

That's all there is to it! Well he did crack Ouma with a couple shots that looked like they should have killed him, but Ouma has that special kind of chin I guess. Watching those shots made me cringe but Ouma was still there.

 

Plus, he didn't really hit the deck. After a multitude of power shots by Taylor, KP merely slumped to the canvas & was up in seconds.

I agree but if he would've caught Spinks like that he wouldn't have recoverd from a 30 count.

 

No doubt. He never caught Spinks at all with something good. He did blast Ouma a couple times as he was rushing in, but somehow Ouma survived: And I don't think many others at all would have survived some of the shots Ouma took.

 

Yeah Ouma has an iron chin.

 

IMO, it ridiculous!! Maybe space age titanium or some ****.

I will have to find footage where he got stopped by Karmazin to see how the hell it was done!

 

jt can hit very hard and he is a big mw, he hit pavlik flush with 3 piece combo and sum otha ****.i cant remeber what its was but he took very hard haymaker from jermain.

he was on ***** street bad, but the reason he was not stoped or counted out was because of his heart and chin.

you have to have a good chin to fight like he does, he nots affraid to get hit and loves to trade,trust the man got a chin.kinda like paul willams loves to throw and take a shot.

 

Not only did Kelly get right back up in round 2. He also ended up back on the offense by the end of the round, and then came out in the 3rd and beat the holy **** out of Taylor. Personally, having seen Pavlik fight 5 times, I knew right there Taylor would not see round 10 which was my orginal prediction; Pavlik by TKO in 10 or 11. But, turns out Taylor went down in 7!!!

Boo
