Pavlik Repeats, Outpoints Taylor in Las Vegas

[Karlos81]

Neither would win 1 round vs Calzaghe and neither will Hopkins.

[RAESAAD]

Good, close fight.....I had it 115-113 Pavlik.

[THe TRiNiTY]

I had it 116-112 Pavik being generous to Taylor who looked ****.

He looked ****, throwing less and landing more percentage-wise? Then what did Pavlik look, missing WAY more?

[Crazylegs77]

Kelly Pavlik.. by 117-111.. Really? That's insane. I don't think EITHER won by that margin.

Good fight, but Pavlik fans have A LOT to worry about.

I had Pavlik up by 4 rounds. Taylor didnt balance his offense and defense then he got tired as usual. And Kelly worked his jab more.
Taylor fought a bit too focused on survival.

....Taylor did the best he could under constant pressure. Pavlik is far from unskilled but Taylor is indeed the faster guy. Still, just being faster won't cut it when your in there with a guy who has more heart, some good skills, and a much bigger punch. Plus, Kelly listens to his corner and can think on the run.

I was actually impressed with Taylor,the way he tripled up the left hook,he fought his heart out,but Pavlik had too much pressure for him

In the first round i thought this aint gna last long,Taylor looked like he got stunned twice,but he fought on,gamely,the 11th and 12th was hell for him tough,he was in survival mode

I think this could have been better then the first,but it wasnt because of JT,he wanted to box,i can understand why tough

[PATO 1]

i thought taylor fought brilliantly his jab and straight right were excellent

no sure what to think over the decision didnt score it live

[RodBarker]

He is dumb, he fights dumb. Taylor has the speed and still can't make pavlik look like a bum, I bet if Calzaghe was in the ring with pavlik he'd win a lop-sided decision against pavlik. Taylor has all the god damn talent in the world but I don't think he is that smart, its ashame his skills work with a dumb brain

Nothing to do with dumb and a lot to do with endurance , and thats the only reason Cal could beat Kelly ( maybe) and Taylor cant .

[ottoevans]

no thing that if a judge had the fight by a wide margin that it wasnt a close fight.

Maybe there was about 6 rounds that were real close but the judge thought one fighter won barely. And in the end it looks like one fighter dominated

116-112 pavlik good fight taylors still got it ...taylor miranda or taylor kessler 168 could be amazing
