KELLY PAVLIK has never been past 9 ROUNDs...

Your eyes are closed right now. You will see my vision come to life in time, my friend. That is all.

i remember the setenta guys saying he was put on his arse vs a ecudaor guy? that true? anyone wanna explain if it was important? He was knocked down by a Great Colombian Hype named Fulgencio Zuniga. Just like Miranda he was a Colombian knockout artist. I only saw highlights but it was a flash knockdown and the same with the knockdown against Bronco Mckart he's never been seriously hurt that I know of. Only having gone 9rds(against Zuniga) could come back to haunt him but IMO it'll end before then:boxing:

Taylor is winning this fight. Pavlik is just the final test for Taylor before his mega showdown with Joe Calzaghe next Summer. It's not a coincidence that Pavlik and Calzaghe fight a similar style. Taylor already said he wants to move up to 168. The handwriting is on the wall PEOPLE. Wake up from your Kelly Pavlik fantasy and smell the coffee. Pavlik is only here because Jermain needs him as a tuneup for Calzaghe. After Jermain beats Pavlik and Calzaghe beats Kessler look for Taylor/Calzaghe to be inked by early 08. And I guarantee it happens in America. Yea... and thats probably why the oddsmakers decided to make Pavlik the favorite :ugh: Exactly.The Miranda fight(which probably most ppl on saw of him or first heard of him)is still on ppls minds as if he beat a Prime Tyson for all of this overrated talk they're saying. Nah, that fight wore off i think. I making this prediction from a styles and talent standpoint only. Its bad for both guys. Completely new and fresh styles that niether guy has ever faced before. Its a spectacular fight. I cant wait. I wanna make a video on KEYS TO VICTORY for each fighter in this fight...

I swear, I hope Pavlik knocks his ass out. I can't stand Taylor. He's someone that had his 0 waaaay too long. There's nobody I'd like to see take it away more than Pavlik. Pavlik has such star potential with his exciting style and crazy KO power. We need a replacement of Jermain ASAP. Man, I coudn't agree more with what you wrote! My thoughts exactly. Thank you.

No, that's pushing it, they do look alike, they both got like the same features, I'm not saying Hopkins looks like Byrd, they just kinda look alike you know, no big deal.:D i gotcha, same features... black skin, black limbs, wide noses, white teeth... lol

I do want Pavlik to KO Jermain's ass but I feel like Emmanuel Steward is gonna come up with some plan to protect Jermain for the full 12 rounds and he'll box his ass to a UD which will piss me off. We need fighters like Pavlik, and less I dun even wanna say Jermain's style is that of a boxer because he doesn't use his jab hardly anymore, he just does what he can to get through the fight. Lame flurries, occasional jab, and hit and holds. Pavlik comes out bombing and I love that.

Pavlik will probably KO Taylor, just like Maskaev knocked out Rahman in their first fight, for some reason Taylor to me looks like a smaller version of Rahman, they don't fight the same but they kinda look alike and I see him getting KO'd, but that's not reason why he'll get KO'd, Pavlik is just too strong for him. lol. Rahman and Taylor look alike because... they're both black and all black people look alike? is that what ur implying? lol

If Taylor wants to keep from getting KOed he better pick his hand up. I can't remeber which one it is but right or left. That shit hangs to his feet. He can't afford to get hit as cleanly as he did against Winky. Becuase if Pavlik lands those shots he's going down. Taylor also needs to throw a jab. And initiate the action. He needs to keep Pavlik at a distance with the jab. Or back Pavlik up with power shots. However, I don't think he's a stronger puncher than Miranda. So I don't think Jermaine's power will discourage Pavlik. Taylor must control the fight. I can't strees that enough he always fights the other guys fight. Nothing seems to discourage pavlik. He sticks to his gameplay to a "T" I think this fight is gonna resemble GATTI-WARD in many ways, but obviously at a much higher skill level. Taylor playing the role of ARTURO GATTI and Pavlike playing the role of MICKY WARD. Taylor probably will come out and outbox pavlik. Stick and move, initiate the action with a combo and get out before pavlik can respond effectively. But Pavlik applys overhwelming pressure, and Taylor seemed to break mentally in the Wright fight. Now put wright in there but have him throw twice as many punches, all of which are twice as hard. Thats Kelly Pavlik. So by the mid rounds Taylor wont be able to go in and out. He'll come and get pounded, pushed pack to the ropes and pounded some more. I expect him to have a second wind cause when has Taylor ever come into the ring in anything short of outstanding shape? But by the championship rounds, if it goes that far, i think Taylor will take a bad beating and eventually be stopped.

If Its a close fight, id think the judges would favor pavlik cause he'd be landing the bigger shots, throwing more punches, and applying all the pressure... If Taylor wants to win, he's gonna have to do a lot of moving. Pavlik needs to be set to punch. If Taylor wants to keep from getting KOed he better pick his hand up.

But on a serious note. Taylor is more than likely going to get the decision if it goes 12 rounds. And if it's close forget about it for Pavlik. He's going to have to get him out in my opinion.

he may have never been past 9, but im sure he spars 12 or more rounds. he seems to be in good shape.

pavlik need a knockout i think that kelly pavlik will need to knock out jermain taylor to win the title. If it goes 12 rds then jermain will get the decision. He got it vs b-hop and he got a draw with winky so pavlik need to knock his ass out or at least knock him down if he wants to win.

Don't worry he won't need more than 5.
