182 to 180 total punches landed, but Jermain had a big round 2 where he was landing heavy leather on PAvlik and there was no return from PAvlik.
Total punches landed were very close between the 2 fighters. Taylor's right eye was swollen almost shut as seen in post fight interview as a result of Pavlik's hard left jab busting thru Taylor's defense. Great fight between two fighters that gave it their all....and they did it for the us fans.
No one can deny Pavlik's ticker.... I had Jermain by UD, in the second round i thought Pavlik was done, but he held on and came back with a great fight. He deserves to be champ and I think he will make many title defenses.
bullshot check the compu box stats pavlik thre more punches but landed less. its obvious you saw what you wanted to see. I am glad the judeges were not as biased as you. he was pressing the action and getting countered:deal did you even watch the fight. did you not see taylor countering pavlik with ease. he just ran out of energy like miranda. pavlik was in better condition so he won.
I had it JT KP 10 - 9 10 - 8 9 - 10 10 - 9 10 - 9 10 - 9 after 6 rounds. i think Tailor looked snappier and was beating Kelly to the punch. The TKO came quick after a set of good punches
Dude no offense but that scorecard is ****. You gave every round to Taylor basically, and how many of those rounds was Taylor being pushed back by Pavlik's jab? ****in crazy.
I had Taylor well in front entering the 7th round but knew he would get KOed as Pavlik seemed very strong and Taylor kept dropping his hands so it was only a matter of time. Taylor was the far superior boxer but Pavlik is by far the more effective fighter
that's how I saw it as well. that SOB steward told taylor he was losing any idiot could see he was winning.
I agree pavlik won that fight on conditioning he was just in better shape. Taking nothing away from pavlik he deserved to win but I am mad at the advice jermain got in his corner. steward should have know he was gassed after the 2nd round.
who cares about the judges...they are usually wrong anyway, hell they're all like 80yrs old. What matters is who got there butt KO'ed and tonight Tayler did. Boy did they underestimate KP, i thought Tayler would win on points. Manny put a hex on JT when he said he would knock KP out. Props to the knew champ!:good
