Pavlik Vs Taylor 2, Bilbo's rbr

Round 4

Both fighters seem to have settled into their gameplans now, it seems they are both looking at the fight going twelve rounds.

Taylor seems more lively Mancini is questioing Pavliks decision to arrive only a couple days ago and not giving himself time to aclimatise to the elevation.

His jab looks nice though, he's setting stuff up well from that.

Taylor beats him to the punch inside again though and lands with a big shot. He's not getting carried away though, just happy to score and not blow himself out.

Again very close round, I'll give it Taylor.

Dead even right now.

38-38

I got Taylor up 3-1 :D

Round 5

It seems that Taylor has adjusted well, it's turning into a boxing match which may suit Jermain better. Pavliks jab is still a big factor though, keeping Taylor at range.

Again Taylor beats him to the punch though. Pavlik is throwing more but Taylors punchers are definitely faster and sharper.

Good stinging jabs from Pavlik though, he's being much more active. I can sense this one having some controversial scoring if it goes the distance.

Again you really could make the case for either fighter here.

I hate to call a round even but honestly there's nothing seperating them after 5

Even

48-48

Taylor 4-1 :)

Round 6.

Again Pavlik marching forwards, similar story in the round so far. Pavlik throwing more and coming forwards, Taylor sharper and more accurate.

Judges could really be a huge factor here. Pavlik pressing more now but Taylor catches him again. Momemtum is with Taylor imo, great left hook to the body from Taylor.

It's a chess match and Taylor is moving his pieces well.

Pavlik lands with a right and Taylor looked like he felt it, comes back with a good jab of his own though.

It's a great performance so far from Taylor, he's certainly not lacking in self belief, I'll give it Taylor,

Taylor 58-57

Taylor is looking good. Beautiful jab. Much more relaxed then the first fight and looking confident

Taylor won the 6th....Pavlik looks like he could send Taylor flat but His defense Is sparce.
Pav does sort of slap here with the left but that right is deadly!!
Crowd going uproar in Taylor shouting.

I wonder who Bilbo picked in the prediction comp, :rolleyes:




spoiler










Kimbo Slice just knocked the fuck out of Tank Abott!

Gave the 1st to Pavlik for one punch, Taylor could very well have won every round thus far imo.

ESPN.com has it 4-2 Taylor right now.

Round 7

Doug Fishcer has it even at 3 rounds each. I think Taylor is ahead slightly.

Pavlik certainly needs to assert himself more. Apparently he's never gone beyond 10 rounds so his own stamina could be an issue.

Certainly Taylor doesn't look weary at all right now, it's Pavlik who seems a little slow. Another good body shot from Taylor, he certainly seems to have more purpose. Whether he can keep this pace going time will tell.

Again really close round nothing seperating them but I get the feeling Taylor's fight plan is being the better excecuted. He's making the fight take place at his pace and is nullifying Pavliks aggression.

Kelly needs to step it up

Taylor round again.

68-66

What a crummy night for my sopcast not to work

Taylor Is boxing Pavlik big .Bust him a few

I think Taylor is looking great. Slipping punches, landing that hard jab.

Pavlik needs the money punch to land and it's not gonna happen
