Taylor looks nervous, and at one point he says that he's at 164 lbs and he was thinking about moving up, but "I might be sticking around to get my belts back..."
huh ??

Taylor seems to stutter more in his speech.. ever since he went with Manny it seems hes been getting a beat down in camp and sparring.
the accumulation of punches aint good for a person.

I don't think he was nervous, he just stutters a lot and it's known that he has a stuttering problem when he speaks.
I wouldn't read into anything Jermain says in public. He's not much for public speaking, more humble and reserved than most in the game. Pavlik is actually the same way, but perhaps more comfortable in front of a camera.
For what it's worth, everyone there (at least on the dais) had a disinterested look, as if none of them wanted to be there, including the promoters.
