I believe the fight should have been a majority draw for Pavlik... Pavlik looked like ****, but Taylor didn't do enough to win...He may have did enough to Draw Pavlik, but no where near enough to have actually pulled out a win...

Taylor thought he was losing the first fight on points even though most had the fight for Taylor until the stoppage.
We can't trust the fighters words on who is winning the fight, lots of those rounds were close and Pavlik like most fighters didn't think he was winning them because they were close.
Then there are boxers like Winky Wright who think they won every close round and end up dropping close decisions for it.Comment

Don't mention to him about Winky Wright, he doesn't think he's ever lost a fight.
I had this current fight 116-112 for Pavlik. I had it the exact same way Harold ledderman (suprisingly) had it except which round 4 I had for Kelly. I could see Jermain winning round 4 though too.Comment

his corner also thought so...his corner told him he needed a kd in the 12...im giving facts...not assumptions...Taylor thought he was losing the first fight on points even though most had the fight for Taylor until the stoppage.

Yeah the scoring was atrocious.I'm sorry, but I still don't see what everybody else seems to be seeing. I rewatchd Taylor-Pavlik 2 (after watching in Chinese) and I just don't see how Taylor lost. Using clean effective punching, Taylor dominated. THe judges didn't even know what type of fight they liked, HBO showed the scores were incredibly inconsistent.
Round 1: Kelly Pavlik definitely won
Rounds 2-8: Jermain won 5 out of these 6 rounds
Round 9: Kelly edged this round out
Round 10: Jermain Taylor wins BIG. Judges Moretti and Trowbridge BOTH give this round to Pavlik
Round 11: Kelly Pavlik by a wide margin
Round 12: This round I could see going even or in Jermain Taylor's way
My score: 115-114, Jermain Taylor.
I don't know how Dave Moretti scored it 117-111, I think he should retire.
End rant

Its ok man. You see what you want to see I suppose sometimes. Reality is Taylor didnt do what he needed to do, he almost got KTFO in round 1 and 11.Comment
