Pavlik's jab.

Was it just me, or did Pavlik's jab surprise the hell out of you as well? I knew he had the longer reach, but no way did I envision him out-jabbing Taylor the way he did. This also must have worried Steward greatly when he saw this, seeing as the jab is what is most important to him. Pavlik can stay at the top for a very long time if he continues to hone that punch to perfection.

i noticed that too. he caught me completely by suprise with that jab. i didnt think that pavlik would even be able to jab with taylor but i was wrong. good performance nonetheless from both fighters and i hope the rematch will be just as exciting.
