    The inability to make the 160 pound limit. Taylor mysteriously cannot
    make the 160 pound limit for his mandatory defense against killer pavlik.
    Media asked team taylor what is causing the sudden weight problem.
    Responded that upon learning that jermain would have to fight kelly, the champ developed a lump in his throat that won't go away. This lump is adding an extra pound that the champion will unfortunatly be unable to shed. As a result he will be moving north to 168 pounds.
    To fight peter manfredo.

    Well since he got 4 gift decisions in his last 5 fights, and straight up is ducking pavlik and running to another division, and has lost even the respect of alot of his hometown fans. I'd say he's lost some respect.

    If he moves up to 168 without fighting Pavlik, then he loses a lot of respect.

    However, he should not lose respect for getting decisions in close fights with Hopkins and Wright. He was the one in the ring and the judges are the ones who caused the 2 wins and 1 draw.

    He should have thrown more punches against Spinks though. For a guy who is the Undisputed MW champion, it was a terrible performance.

    Taylor is very athletic and really physically strong for a middleweight, but technically, he is still very raw. I think Pavlik is better technically than he is.

    What? Trying to increase your number of posts by bull**** threads or your really an idiot? :think

    Taylor fought Bhops twice and Winky (who refused a rematch) how can you insinuate that he is ducking Pavlik? :rofl

    stupid ! ! !

    :huh :-(

    nothing wrong with taylor`s comp and he gets a fair bit of stick for all his fights since he became champ.

    but wright was his mandatory and he would have been stripped and he had to go through hopkins for the belt and i anm guessing rematch clauses were inserted ?

    ouma and spinks are small and taylor is a very big middleweight which is why the critism i suspect.

    we all expect the big guy to beat the **** out of the little guy.

    i mean if you put middleweight spinks in the same ring as light welterweight hatton, IMO they would look in the same weightclass.

    where`as taylor would look the same size as a lot of light heavys like dawson/erdei/ etc etc.
