Pavlik Taylor Post Fight Presser Videos

Pavlik is, besides being a tough hombre, a thinking man's fighter. Not as physically gifted as some, not even as gifted as JT, but he uses his head, stays busy, and fights with a plan in mind. That shows up, big time.

As for JT, I think he gained some credibility even in a loss here, if that's actually possible. He showed up to fight, fought a smarter fight, just seems to lack the conditioning to match the output of a guy like Pavlik. He'll move up, and do well I think.

On another note, I noticed when watching the fight last night that it looked like Pavlik had hurt his right hand a few times. Saw him giving it a quick shake after punches. Aparently that was true and his hand was really bothering him. That's something to watch and could spell real problems for him going forward. Not everyone is A Gotti and can keep fighitng with broken up hands.
