PAVLIK by KO10 is my Prediction, yours???

[sparked_85]

The most possible outcomes IMO:

Pavlik mid/late rounds TKO (if Taylor folds under Pavlik's pressure)
Taylor early/mid rounds TKO (if Taylor manages to catch Pavlik before Pavlik's pressure catches up to him)
Pavlik comfortable UD (if Pavlik completely outworks and beats up Taylor)
Taylor close UD, MD or SD (if Taylor manages to control the pace with the jab unlike in his past fights)

I see Pavlik taking it by late rounds TKO, possibly a decision as well if Taylor is well-conditioned and tough enough to go the distance.

Is it just me or is Taylor more aesthetically pleasing as a fighter? he landed the more the eye catching shots, though I'm assuming they both landed about the same. He was in control for much of that fight.

Pavlik is a beast, but I think Taylor can see the 12 rounds out, and win more of them rounds than Pavlik.

I am taking up too 5, 5k bets with 2 to 1 odds.......

That Pavlik wont Knock out J.Taylor


Do anybody want to bet......?

[Randall_Hopkirk]

Taylor 116-112.

[-Hyperion-]

Taylor KO 4

[sparked_85]

Taylor KO 4

damn!? really?

[J90]

Taylor KO 4

This is the thing, i reckon Jermains best chance is if he pressures pavlik early on in the fight, it nearly payed off last time...if jermian fails to do this, i think pavliks puching power will eventually be to much

damn!? really?

i want him to win and thats the only way i see that happening...taylor is too flawed defensively to survive more than 9 rounds against a punishing fighter like pavlik....and his fundamentals are too flawed for him to be able to outbox pavlik without getting hit with counters....and one of them could do him in...


so yeah taylor by KO in 4

[OldSkool]

it remains to be seen how they will both carry the extra weight. being naturally big guys i cant see it being much of a problem for either of them. for some reason i think taylor will pull it out of the bag and answer his critics, not much scientific reasoning behind this prediction, just a feeling. ill go with Taylor on points in a close battle.

Yeah good reasons. I think Taylor can see it out though. The rounds Taylor won, he won well. It is a big if though, Pavlik is a pretty scary guy to take the distance. He is definetely going to have you in trouble at some point.

[MELLY-MEL...]

tko pavlik sometime after 6! as stated u guys are correct! jermaine will be dangerous in the first 4 or so rds! after that kelly will wear him down! taylor usually gasses against guys who work half as much as kelly so i think he will be shot, and tired as hell in the second 1/2 of the fight! make no mistake about it, this fight will be dangerous for both, and i see jermaine being very good early on, and if kelly can weather it he will win!
