  1. Just read the below quote on the Lacy / Taylor thread & so my question is, is it true?

    Jazz didn't watched the fight. Either that or he did watched the fight but his brain is on vacation if he thinks Taylor got robbed. I thought Taylor won the fight 115-113 but that fight was very close in which it could go either way so i ain't complaining.

    It was a close fight (which I scored 116 -114 Pavlik). i wouldn't have complained if JT got the decision, but there's no way you could say he was robbed!

    Yes it was close but the problem was that Taylor didn't realy work. Pavlik kept jabbing and pressureing the whole round while Taylor landed 1 or 2 impressive flurries. What did you like, the constant pressure of Pavlik or Taylors couple of good flurries. If Taylor would have worked more he could have won.

    No. Fairly close but Pavlik was still the clear winner for me.

    Increasingly, any points loss these days seems to be described as a "robbery" by the losing side.

    He wasn't robbed, but one scorecard was krazy I believe. But that's boxing, and I did have Jermain winning the fight at first. But even though he blocked alot of Pav's punches he was the aggresor

    Jermain fought very well and redeemed himself in my eyes. A draw is about as close as I could see it, but it didn't seem like Jermain did enough to win. Anything wider than 115-113 or 116-112 for Pavlik is silly though...
