Who saw the fight ? I wanted Pavlik to win but i predicted Taylor would outbox him for a UD 12. Boy was i wrong ! Pavlik can give and take !
 
I was fairly certain pavlik would win. The only reason I didn't bet on it is I just moved to England and have no money :D

I predicted it in 9, he got it done 2 rounds quicker.

Taylor struggled with welterweights and junior middleweights like spinks, ouma and wright, no way he was beating pavlik.

Pavlik is an all time great MW puncher. He has a brilliant way of conserving his power, he doesn't put everything on every punch, he is very relaxed, so not only does he conserve energy but it lures his opponent into a false sense of security.

Only in round 7 did pavlik really start launching with everything he had, and then bam, taylor was out of there :D

Taylor did better than I thought actually.

Pavlik is the king at 160, nobody beats him there. I think he would have a good chance of beating the winner of Calzaghe - Kessler at 168 too.
