Pavilk fans be honest, did he really beat Taylor the 2nd time?

Pavlik won the fight convincingly, almost stopped Taylor with a body shot.

 

I had Taylor winning by 1 round or something like that. I had Pavlik winning in the first one (before the KO).

 

I've watched it 3 times. Official scores were 115-113, 116-112, 117-111. I had it 116-112 Pavlik. Couldn't argue with 117-111. 115-113 is a bit to close.

 

Yes, he beat Taylor the 2nd time. It might have close, but not close enough to give it to Taylor.
So yes, it was a clear win for Pavlik.

 

Jermain did well, but not enough to argue he should have won. I did have JT beating Pavlik in their first fight until the knockout, and I thought Jermain was winning until about round 9 in their 2nd fight. I haven't seen the fight in a while, but I believe I gave the last 4 rounds to Pavlik. i like JT, I'm excited to see what he can do at 168lbs.

 

i had taylor winning

 

Pavlik definately beat him in my book. I had the fight about even going into the 10th, then the next two rounds were clearly Pavlik's. It was a close, competitive fight and Jermain showed some improvement, however it definately wasn't controversial in my view. I had it Pavlik 115-113.

:good

 

Yes but it was very close.

In that fight i thought it was pretty clear that Pavlik is pretty one dimensional.

But, he found a way to win and props to him.

 

yep, with that body shot Pavlik ripped Taylor like a fish.

 

It was close but i had Pavlik winning.

For me Taylor didn't do enough in the latter rounds. I think this is because towards the end Taylor couldn't hurt Kelly. Pavlik seemed to just be walking threw Taylor's punches and i think this dis-heartened Taylor and is when the fight changed in Kelly's favour and ultimately what won Pavlik the fight. I believe that in the last 2-3 rounds Taylor realised he couldn't hurt Pavlik or maybe even win and he mentally gave up.

 

Pavlik took it late. If JT dominated more rounds then he would of got the W. But Pavlik kept coming and hurt him with a body shot.

 

Ummmmm, Yes!

 

It was clear, but close. 115-113 is about right.

 

I had it 115-113 taylor but there were close rounds where both fighters didn't do much, it was a hard fight too call but i had taylor winning.
