Pavlik can only win by knockout or he will lose

He won't be able to outbox Jermain, and boxers more times than not beat brawlers.

Lets face it Jermain Taylor is America's new boy wonder, remember the Spinks decision, Pavlik ain't gonna take this if it goes to the scorecards.

It comes down to one thing in this fight. If Pavlick can cut off the ring-he wins. He will wear Taylor down as he did Miranda.

If Pavlick can't cut off the ring, Taylor will dictate as he did with Hopkins and Wright, and Pavlick is nowhere near Those guys ability to box effectivly.


So, thats the only factor IMHO.

I look for Taylor to break out the jab and stay in the center. The miranda fight showed cleary that Pavlick is much less of a threat in the center. Taylor will look to tie up inside and Pavlick wont be able to get off like he wants.

I see a frustrated Pavlick begin to reach about the 6th and Taylor cruises to a UD from there!
