    I agree as well. IMO that's the only way Taylor has a good shot of winning. I just don't think he could slug with Pavlik, his defense has too many holes for him to succeed in that area.

        One thing is for sure, this fight sure is worth buying in PPV.

          I disagree. Pavlik is bigger and hits harder but Taylor athleticism makes him a better boxer. he has holes in his defense but so does Pavlik and Taylor didn't have the power to exploit them as much as he would have liked and Miranda didn't have the speed. Taylor is the better boxer and his new trainer will have to work on the his defense, if that gets sorted then i think taylor will win the rematch on points in a worthwhile fight despite not being as exciting as the last. I could be wrong though all it takes is a big shot from Pavlik to win but if Taylor get his defense sorted then he will win. Big IF though.

              It was a ****ing fluke that pavlik mad it out of the second round the first time.. JT is a more skilled fighter.. He just lost his confidence and pav capitalized on it.. JT will get his belts back for sure

                What weight is this fight at? I heard its a catch weight, I would rather them fight for the 160 pounds belts again.

                  Taylor or Pavlik winning this match is cool, but the real winners are us the boxing fans. My hat goes off to Taylor for wanting the rematch. I can't wait.
