Assuming Pavlik doesn't put his hands down like he did when Taylor tagged him for the KD, I think this fight goes the exact same way the first one did. Pavlik does consistent yet not flashy damage throughout the fight, Taylor nails flashy big punches that wobble Pavlik but doesn't put him down. Somewhere around round 10, the accumuliation of punches puts Taylor on his ass for a KO. Should be an entertaining state of affairs, I'll be rooting for JT in hopes of us getting a trilogy.
Taylor will always gas out late because he loads up on his power....Pavlik throws his power smoothly, which is why his stamina is better than Taylor's....a rematch will look like the first one, Taylor will have his way in the early rds, gas out, then get stopped....Taylor also has no clue how to avoid a right hand, and Pavlik is one of the better right hand punchers in the game....
His skills are not better than Pavlik's, but he is more explosive so it may seem that way. He is better at some things, like counter punching, and worse at other things, like one two combinations. You are right about his stamina though. There are sooo few fighters who have both explosiveness and stamina, however. Usually, if you have one, you don't have the other. It has to do with muscle type, but I won't get into that. What people don't understand is that Taylor's poor stamina is due to his musculature and not his training. He does a lot of cardio. No matter how hard he trains, he simply is NOT going to have great stamina. Taylor is no PBF. If he wants to win, he'll have to KO Pavlik early or dominate the early rounds and try to survive in the later ones.
This is true... Actually, he dropped his hands after the first barrage, which did some damage. The second barrage just continued the work. I don't think he was showboating; he opened his mouth as if to say something to the ref. It's hard to say what would have happened, but I wouldn't jump to conclusions like you are doing here.
