    I agree that Taylor will more then likely win, but ill tell you now that nobody is exposing anybody.

    People fail to see that Pavlik has some very nice footwork, cuts the ring off superbly, and throws well over 80 punches every round.

    Taylor has NEVER experienced anything close to that.

    Taylor was buzzed by Winky Wright, and a Spinks right hand WOBBLED Taylor. Hopkins also hurt Taylor pretty badly. Pavlik undoubtedly hits harder then all of them, and he throws 8 or 9 times as many punches per round!

    A lot of people are gonna immidiately count Pavlik out but i give him a fair shot at actually winning this fight.

    And Please dont be surprised if you get a fight where both fighters go down or a fight where both fighters seem like they are gonna be completely out of it at times.

    This is the fight where we finally get to see TAYLORS killer instints. WRIGHT succeeded in bringing them out to a certain extent, so we know he has them.

    This fight is gonna be a doozy of a prize fight, ill promise that

          Yes... have you?

          When guys pressure him like WINKY WRIGHT, he makes exciting fights. WRIGHT-TAYLOR was a FOTY candidate. One of the best middleweight fights of the last 5-10 years.

          This fight could easily and should easily outdue that one

            Wright vs. Taylor was a shady fight with a shady decision.

              I just hope the promoters do a good job of letting the public know about the Pavlik vs. Taylor fight. Pavlik could become very popular with the general public, because he's exciting to watch in the ring and is also a likable man of good character outside the ring.

                how in the world was that a shady fight?

                I tought the decision was wrong, i thought WRIGHT won, but that doesnt change the action in the wring.

                Pavlik puts on more pressure and thros almost twice as many punches as Wright did per round.

                Its gonna be a war in there

                  Wright - Taylor was a good fight, fought at a high level, but not a great one.

                    For me, a WRIGHT fan, that was definetly a great fight. Such high level skill and such good back and forth, seesaw action. As easily as one fighter won one round, the other would win the next round.

                    And the controversial 12th round that decided the fight.

                    I love that fight. ive watched it a million times. One of my all time favorites for some reason. The whole feel of the fight idk. It just never gets old for me

                      I watched it twice; the first I thought Wright won, after the second I decided it was too close to call. You?
