Listen, if Taylor gets by Pavlik in any way shape or form, he has to be given his due. He has beaten an ATG Middleweight twice, albeit controversely. He has drawn with an ATG Junior Middleweight who wouldnt rematch. He has beaten a former undisputed welterweight champion. Hopkins had 20 straight title defenses and was #1 P4P. Winky and Spinks are both very crafty, slick southpaws, the prior was top 3 P4P. He has beaten a come forward workhorse in Ouma, who was a former titlist himself. Now if he beats a tall rangy boxer puncher with an unbelievable knockout percentage, what more could you want from him. And for the record, I cant stand Taylor for dethroning Hopkins, but damn man, give credit where its due. In fact, I dare some one to show me a fighter in the past 15 years who has fought two fighters ranked in the top 3 P4P at the time that they fought.
