    I may be in the minority but the first time I watched the rematch I scored it for Taylor. It was close either way. Pavlik is just too limited in movement, defense and his power is overrated. When he was compared to Thomas Hearns I almost had a ****ing heart attack

    A lot of people I know scored the rematch for Taylor, though I scored it for Pavlik and still do every time I watch it. His power is good, I would rate his power where it is just fine, he can bang really hard if his opponent allows him to position his self to do so but not much for and he has a solid chin. Not much for skills, speed or movement, even his ring cutting skills are bad.

    Whoever made the Thomas Hearns comparison is an idiot.

    I always find in funny in a post fight interview when a fighter makes a bunch of excuses, and then follows it up with "but I don't want to make any excuses."

    Whoever listens to Arum is a noob in boxing. Arum used to call Mayweather the greatest fighter EVER since Muhammad Ali in EVERY single interview when he was with him, as soon as Mayweather left he's a fraud. :lol:

    Just a promoter doing his job, don't expect anything sensible. That's what he's paid to do/say and if it takes stepping on other guys then so be it.

    Sam Langford once beat up a bear. In the post fight interview the bear said that he only lost cause he had a 8 month layoff. What a *****
