I too had it 116-113 Pavlik. While Jermain was sharper, he didn't control the fight and LET Pavlik outwork him and hustle the victory away. Pavlik just plained fought for 3min a round, while Taylor fought for 30sec a round. It wasn't even close to a robbery, it was just plain a close fight. And Pavlik outhustled Taylor to victory.
Can't say it better.
I think Calzaghe will embarrass Pavlik and Taylor if they ever fight him.
Do not underestimate champions like that (speaking of Pav & JT). Or i should say do not overestimate champion ( meaning Joe).
Joe has never been tested. I mean can you name me a single champion he faced who ever was in the top 10 pound for pound?
You'll get my point during april 19th.
pavlik will knock you off that bandwagon tonight with a sledgehammer jab and a thunderous right.... An as far as Calzaghe goes lets just see if he can make it past Hopkins before looking into the crystal ball
Fucking A!
I think Kessler is P4P caliber. In fact I think Kessler would beat Taylor and Pavlik as well.
Well if one of those fight ever happen then you'll be a rich man with your money on Kessler.
I'm french and i think the scoring was pretty close but Pav controled the fight all the way so to me the decision was fair.
Even if it was not a championship fight, you got to do more than that to deserve a win over a world champion and moreover to take his 0 out.
PS: I precise that i'm french to show that we are not all thinking Taylor was robbed, as well as we are not all liking snails or frog legs (which i do love so), we are not all spoiling a good boxing forum with 12 yo insult or any other.
