      It is not 100%, by any means. Taylor has the ability to outbox Pavlik for 12 rounds, and may even catch Kelly like he did in the first fight (though much less likely.) I see the extra 6 pounds helping the taller, longer Kelly slightly more (even though Jermain asked for it.)

      If Jermain loses this one, I think the best thing for him to do is move up to light heavy and retire Bernard for good, make it three in a row.

        Taylor now has no choice to respect Kelly's power, and I think he will be wise to it next time and box a lot smarter, winning by decision or a stoppage if he can catch Kelly again.

          I'm going with Pavlik on a UD. Taylor is in my opinion Highly overrated fighter, who has reached his peak skill level. As a relatively young, strong fighter he will most likely match Pavlik with intensity and punch output, but his boxing skills are limited and remain questionable.

              I'm picking Taylor right now. But I might change my prediction as the rematch gets closer. Taylor almost won the first fight and I would think that this time around he'd make some technical adjustments. If he doesn't hes in trouble...
