I just got off my dinner at work and I was reading an article in this week's boxing news. They make the great point that the best option for Jermain Taylor is to fight Kelly Pavlik.
If you think about it, Taylor didn't do anything against Spinks to justify the $6m he craves in order to fight Calzaghe, and to be honest, I think alot of people's interest in him has rapidly faded after some pretty poor snooze fests. However, if he wants to make the money and keep the public interested in him, he should fight Pavlik, as Pavlik is who all the talk is about and if Taylor beats him in a great fight, he can redeem some of the public interest he lost.
If Taylor wants to "make the most money"...in the long run, fighting Pavlik is the only fight that can bring that to him.
