    When Taylor loses to Pavlik in the rematch

    Who is do you feel is the best opponet for Taylor after he loses the rematch to Pavlik (and he will lose)?

    I believe if he stays ay 160, then he should fight one of the other 160lb champs (Sturm or Abraham). If he moves up to 168, then he should face Calzaghe (win or lose to Hopkins).

    Taylor/Kessler would be interesting. If Cal fights Hops at 175, I doubt he'll be back to 168. Maybe Taylor/Miranda as well.

      no offense but why the hell does everyone keep assuming that taylor is just going to get his ass handed to him and thats that , am i the only one that believes this fight is going to be alot closer than everyones making it out to be ?

      i mean granted if taylor comes out fighting scared to get hit , hes going to lose . but if he comes in and fights up to his abilities why cant he win this fight ?

      i swear diff ref and pavlik fight is stopped and this whole place is saying ... so after pavlik gets knocked out again ( LOLZ PWNED IN 2 ROUNDS LOLZ ) whos a good fight for him ?

      c mon guys lets give the man a chance here.

          Taylor will win imo and this whole Pavlik thing will blow over.

            I agree, most refs would of stopped it in the 2nd but im somewhat glad it wasnt, because we got a great fighter all the way through. Im a much bigger taylor fan than pavlik although I do respect pavlik for what he has and has accomplished. He won the first fight, cant take that away from him. But the second fight is a toss up just like the 1st one. Nothing has changed, except taylor may be hungry again. People forget how many flush shots it took from pavlik to actually konck taylor out, pavlik landed bombs from the opening bell, it took less punches from taylor to hurt pavlik.

              Taylor's style of fighting is already set. It's hard for me to believe he's going to do anything different than in the first fight with Pavlik. Taylor will come out aggressive, but Pavlik's "ring smarts" and power will prevail. I just don't see how the outcome will be any different his Taylor does not change his gameplan

                  if taylor gets knocked out again by pavlik it will be a year at least before he fights anyone who can beat him.

                  i expect a couple fights against willie gibbs types
