Gunstar, it is ****** to bring race into this discussion. You can live in ignorance thinking you can judge a person based on their skin-tone, but try to limit discussion on a boxing forum to boxing skills. If you weren't impressed with Pavlik's performance tonight against an excellent fighter like Miranda, then that ignorance extends to your understanding of boxing skills as well.
taylor will fight for most $ next

Taylor lost me as a fan tonight after hearing his piece of **** interview. How the hell can you tell the fans that your going to fight who ever brings more money to the table when the biggest fight for him in the division is already there? Just imagine if Cory Spink's promoter offered Taylor a lot of money for a rematch, Taylor would skip a meaningful fight for a dud just to put more money in his pockets without giving a **** what the fans think.Comment

I picked Pavlik to KO Miranda long before anyone else did, I was never high on Miranda.Gunstar, it is ****** to bring race into this discussion.

The point is the thread creator is def a white hugger, this fool was never a Kelly Pavlik fan, now he's on his nuts.Comment

I think what taylor said reflects the sad reality of the sport. because unfortunately thats really what all of the fights we see come down to these days.Taylor lost me as a fan tonight after hearing his piece of **** interview.

I don't disagree with your point, Black Jesus, but another factor to look at is risk. I'll bet Taylor could have made more money fighting winky than Ouma or spinks. But he chose to fight the latter two because he figured he can't lose.
I think tonight either Pavlik or spinks put a scare in Taylor. He wants to go for the big payday now and not take chances.Comment

Yeah, but who cares about how much money he'd make because we're not getting any of it, so I don't even know why that gets brought up.
....Well I heard the amateur fight was a close one and its been a long time since that fight. Plus to me Taylor has looked like crap in each of his fights ever since his first fight with Hopkins.
....lol, I've checked out a lot of boxing forums already and its amazing how many Pavlik sigs and avatars I've come across after tonights win......
...these posers jump bandwagons and nut hug others out of nowere like 80's rock groupies.

good to hear that. if i was a fan, i wouldn't be now either. if taylor was an exciting fighter, he would be making decent money almost no matter who he fights.Taylor lost me as a fan tonight after hearing his piece of **** interview.

it is understandable that fighters want the money, but unless you have absolutely no passion or just don't care about the fans, your not going to take an easier, boring fight simply because you can make a little more off of it.Comment

Name one undisputed champion in the game right now who is fighting the best for less money. Name one. We both know Why winky didint take the rematch and thats his own problemI don't disagree with your point, Black Jesus, but another factor to look at is risk.
