I like your confidence just make sure you show up here after the fight. I'll be here win lose or draw.:good
pimp c-yes there is a lot more to boxing than power and JT doesn't have much of "a lot more". He is not a perticularly good defensive fighter, he is fast-but not amazingly so, his ring intelligence would put him in Mrs. Johnsons 4th period remedial group, his skills are so-so. He's basicaly a very good athlete, with some decnt boxing ability and heart. It's not like Pavlik is fighting a middleweight Mayweather. I see a competative tough fight with pavlik scoring a late round tko.
He was somewhat hurt against Hopkins but not out on his feet. It was fatigue more than anything. Hopkins is ATG a true throw back 15 round fighter that would have stopped Winky and Tarver if fights still were 15 rounds long. Taylor's chin is fine you can't take it away from him. Pavlik has been dropped Taylor hasn't. Pavlik hasn't fought a boxer as good as Taylor so I can say the samething about Kelly. How will he react when he's in there with someone with better skills not to mention the psychological edge Taylor has over Pavlik because of his win in the amatuers.
Both look like they always does, nothing to get excited about and nothing to change a previous prediction of the fight for. It was clear from the beginning that Taylor looks much better physically. I said it before and say it again, Pavlick by KO round 8.
NO. that mother****er is anerexic. I dont know what you are smoking If I was taylor I would go to the body. That looks to be a weaker spot then trying to bounce it off Pavliks good chin.
Yep It's always in the back of your mind I don't care who you are or how long ago it was. You're still going to have to face the test and say am I good enough or does this guy just have my number.
I am not just picking Kelly because of his obvious power, but he has so much more than that. He has a good jab, throws combinations, can take a shot, and is an excellent in fighter for his size.
Another hype is about to come to a screeching halt. Come Sunday morning, I'm going to sip a cup of coffee, read the newspaper, smoke a cigar, and then come on this site and laugh at the lot of you. Taylor got this, easy.
What puncher has Taylor ever fought? Any? Taylor has fought good fighters , but most of them have been smaller & pitifully weak punchers. Hopkins is the hardest puncher he fought, even at that , almost all his KO's come by late rounds after landing many shots to wear down opponents, not one punch power. One punch power is what Taylor is going to feel against Pavlik.
