Pavlik and Taylor comment on rematch...Steward/Arum comments also

[Super_Lightweight]

"This was just another fight where I showed my heart," said newly crowned WBC/WBO middleweight champion Kelley Pavlik in the postfight press conference after his impressive seventh round KO of Jermain Taylor. "He came to fight. He has hand speed and a punch." Regarding a rematch, Pavlik said, "If Jermain wants it. I'm ready." Taylor stated, "I definitely want a rematch. I think Kelly's a great fighter and I would love another shot." Regarding round two when he had Pavlik on the canvas, Taylor commented, "In that second round I should have been able to throw more uppercuts. I can't believe I lost. I take my hat off to him, he got knocked down and came back."
Trainer Emanuel Steward stated, "It was one of the greatest fights I've ever seen. Pavlik would have been a threat to anybody. I never thought Kelly had that much speed." Promoter Bob Arum called it "one of the best middleweight fights I've seen. Right now it's second to Hagler-Hearns."Although, there is a rematch clause, Arum recommends that both fighters take an interim fight, with Pavlik possibly making his first defense against John Duddy on the eve of St. Patrick's Day 2008 in Madison Square Garden.

I'd like to see Pavlik beat John Duddy! I dont know why I've never liked that guy.

Pavlik did look crisp tonight. Very nice jab.

A rematch would be great. Pavik now has his chance on beating Taylor not once, but twice.

It will be on PPV this time.

Taylor did floor Pavlik. Taylor could have finished it right there, but didn't. He should have thrown them uppercuts!

Pavlik is just that good.

Not making this rematch would be flat out ****ing ******ed.

I think it's the FOTY so far and in the tradition of the conventional rubber match I'd ****ing say it should be a lock.

Both guys fought great fights. Taylor made the mistake of gassing himself out with useless punches, movements and generally being tense in the early going..........but nothing more can be said about Pavlik's heart and ability to overcome the second round to eventually finish Taylor.
