      You guys are gonna see different Pavlik then in his previous fight against Miranda. Pavlik's defense is underrated as hell, and he will be able to surprise all of you.

And Pavlik has never fought someone as experienced as Taylor, the best fighter he fought was an overrated Miranda. This is the biggest test Pavlik has in his career.
        you make some good points but

        Miranda was not over rated he just had certain strengths and certain weaknesses, Pavlik took him on and committed to deal with his power to push him backwards and force Miranda to throw punches either unset or on his back foot. That in itself took a huge set of nuts and should be an indication of how smart he and his team are.

        yes taylor got wins in the hopkins fights but I and a lot of people think that Hopkins clearly beat him in the first fight and it was razor close in the second. That said Taylor lucked out and met Hopkins just as Bernard started to slow down and show his age. If he had fought Hopkins even 2 or 3 years ago he would have ended that fight on the mat.

        The Winky Wright fight was a great fight, very exciting. Taylor tho showed he to can be bullied and by a guy that made his name fighting at 154 in Winky. Pavlik is for real! I hope Jermain has realized this or he will get an ass whoopin.

          Ppl jumped on the Pavlik bandwagon rather quickly after the Miranda fight. I doubt there was alot of talk of Pavlik before he beat Miranda.

            miranda was in really bad shape for having to make weight but pavlik has a chance if he plays smart and doesnt chase taylor the entire fight

                Although Im Not Comparing Nun Of The Fighters, This Reminds Me Of Cotto Vs Judah.
                Everyone Was So Sure Judah Was Gonnna Take Out Cotto, Tooo Fast Too Powerful. Similar Here, People Say Pavlik Has Too Much Power. Jt Has Been In There With 2 Top 10 P4p Fighters And All Time Greats, He'll Survive And Win A Ud. He Might Get Hurt, But He'll Still Win

                  people who had seen him raved about him. He impressed every time he was on ESPN, scoring brutal KO after brutal KO

                  But his biggest wins were either off television, on obscure networks with limited view bases like VERSUS, or on the undercard of fight slike ARCE-LER.

                  But every expert who writes about him raves about him, and those who saw him predicted the destruction of Miranda to a T

                  Now that we've all seen him, there is plenty to rave about.

                    You guys make him out to be the next Tyson,lets see what he has with a top tier opponent. Stop overhyping him before he even does anything.If he gets his ass kicked Im going to clown.

                      PAVLIK needs a great win to make him LEGIT. MIRANDA is no bum, but aint that top level fighter, JT IS. a top 10 p4p fighter... if PAVLIK wins, it'll prove he is a good fighter. this is the fight that makes or breaks him...
