Pavlik vs Taylor revisited...some things I saw that I did'nt the first time.
I know that it’s old news…but I’m back to watching Pavlik vs. Taylor again.
Unbelievable bout.
Really.
What kills me is the commentating…again.
First & foremost…Merchant was the only one that was really being legit during the entire bout.
Lampley was basically cheerleading for Taylor. Lewis was all up on him…I suppose due to the fact that Manny was in Taylor’s corner. He kept flip flopping back & forth…what choice did he have.
What killed me was the ending…the fact that Lewis said Smoger was on top of Taylor preventing him from getting up wasn’t that disturbing for me…what killed me was when he said “I don‘t know where that shot came from…”.
THAT SHOT?!?!?! What the hell was Lennox talking about?!?!?!
The end of the fight went something like this: Body shot by Pavlik & then the jab starts working! Taylor backs up, Pavlik jabs, right hand, jab, Taylor jabs, right hand wobbles Taylor’s face almost comes off, tries to retaliate & then eats a left hand, right hand, upper, left hand, upper, & then a couple of double lefts, a right, another upper, & Taylor is already out & sliding down as Pavlik throws a left hook & backs out pretty much unconscious.
Taylor was totally gone…blasted out.
Lewis began questioning that until the replay & then it was obvious that Smoger was on point.
I still just can’t get over it…personally I think that this is the upset of the year to date & also the knockout of the year.

Re: Pavlik vs Taylor revisited...some things I saw that I did'nt the first time.
Anyone else thing Lennox was in denial?
Pavlik's win & showing was twice as good the second time around...I wanna say that Taylor was O-U-T out on the second upper.
I also just caught that Buffer said it was one of the greatest middleweight fights of history...
I mean...it was great & all...but was it that great?
Yep...it sure was.
Thoughts?

Re: Pavlik vs Taylor revisited...some things I saw that I did'nt the first time.
Totally agree with knockout of the year like you said when you see the replay in slow mo you see Taylors face nearly fly off. I think that Taylor should get an instant rematch though as its the best fight ive ever seen him in and I thought he was actually looking not only good but entertaining aswell!

Good post. Totally agree...Taylor looked good this outting & I honestly thought (2nd sitting, 4th time around)even though Taylor was gassed a bit...he pulled it out. I mean...he kept on boxing & he kept landing flush when he tossed the shots.
Also...I don't believe I've gotten you yet...so...Welcome to the Forum. Have the Obligatory Wacko Welcome Wagon :coolclick:

Re: Pavlik vs Taylor revisited...some things I saw that I did'nt the first time.
Originally I said that the ref should have waved it off in round 2, giving Taylor the TKO.
I changed my mind about that during the Peter Vs. McCline fight ;D

Smoger is noted & known for letting matches go...especially one's of this caliber.
Pavlik was up almost immediately & was dropped on several punches...Taylor was knocked out after the 4th or 5th shot out of almost 15 or 20 flush power punches.

It was a truly great KO for a number of reasons. Even though Taylor was squeaking out Round, you could see Pavlik gaining momentum with jabs and increasingly hard and accurate straight right. I could feel it coming, and I really enjoy KO's when the fight is close. Then you see Pavlik land a textbook 1-2...stunning Taylor...then the second 1-2 and Taylor is basically out on his feet. The first time I watched it, I remember thinking, "wow, this is really happening. Hell yeah!" Now Taylor backs into a corner, and Pavlik is just a lethal finisher. If Taylor knew how to calmly finish like Pavlik, Taylor would have won in the 2nd. Taylor covers up as Pavlik wastes a few punches on his arm, opening up him up for the death blow, one of the most devastating combos in boxing - right uppercut, left hook - lift the head, clean up the mess. Perfect. Textbook. Over.
Smoger has been around, and he was absolutely on point. Lennox was in denial for sure.

Re: Pavlik vs Taylor revisited...some things I saw that I did'nt the first time.
IMO, Smoger is one of thee best in the business. He is not quick to stop a fight and if he does step in, you can best be assured the fight is over. I don't listen too close to what these guys say because I trust my own eyes and a lot of times I don't agree with what is being said anyway and I am too busy trying to concentrate on the fight. A lot of times, these guys have nothing to say. The fight is everything people are saying it is.
FOTY, FOTD, CBOTY, KOOTY. It has my vote.
:lickish:

Re: Pavlik vs Taylor revisited...some things I saw that I did'nt the first time.
Pavlik had me eating my words after that fight :-\
Truth is, I was so drunk when I saw the fight that I don't remember much of what happened. (I didn't even remember Pavlik going down in the 2nd the next day)
Good for Pavlik though. He is 100% the real deal and I look forward to seeing him in the ring again.

Re: Pavlik vs Taylor revisited...some things I saw that I did'nt the first time.
To be honest I can't remember Lewis saying that the fight shouldn't have been stopped but if he did that must be a first from him.
I hate Lennox Lewis as a commentator because he's just shit.
I can't recall a fight where a figher has been knocked down and Lewis hasn't jumped up all excitedly and said 'Oh IT'S OVER!!!', or 'HE'S NOT GOING TO GET UP!'
I think because he had a glass chin he cannot conceive of another fighter recovering from a shot.
My favourite was a recent fight I can't remember which when some fighter got knocked down and Lewis is all like 'OH IT'S OVER! and Lampley asks the question will he get up, Lewis shouts 'NO!' and Larry Merchant in a bored voice of mild irritation says' He'll get up'.
Sure enough he did :)

When Taylor dropped Pavlik in round 2 Lewis said "Oh that's it! That is it!" & then as soon as Pavlik got up he was back pedalling & saying he couldn't believe that Pavlik was going to survive the round. Started giving him props for having a hellacious chin.

What kills me is the commentating…again.
First & foremost…Merchant was the only one that was really being legit during the entire bout.
Lampley was basically cheerleading for Taylor. Lewis was all up on him…I suppose due to the fact that Manny was in Taylor’s corner. He kept flip flopping back & forth…what choice did he have.

I still just can’t get over it…personally I think that this is the upset of the year to date & also the knockout of the year.
I swear some people are so fucking sensitive and take everything to the heart. I don't give a fuck about the commentary. I rarely even pay attention to it. I watch HBO, Showtime, ESPN, FSN, Versus and Solo Boxeo to watch the boxing. Not to listen to the talking. Every time after a big fight there some clown starting a thread saying "Did you hear Merchant say this" "O My god Lampley was so bias". Or "Lennox Lewis sucks, I hate him". What I say is, so fucking what! Watch the fights with the volume down. It's that fucking simple.

Talk about sensitive...loosen up your pannies little girl...everybody remembers you picked Taylor. You rarely pay attention to the commentarty? Oh please...when it suits you to piss & moan...we all have to hear it...I think you can deal with this discussion. :-*

Re: Pavlik vs Taylor revisited...some things I saw that I did'nt the first time.
Sitting through the Pavlik Miranda fight now...it's unreal that neither one of them are concentrating on the jab as of round 2.
Pavlik's straight right is unreal.
-
Re: Pavlik vs Taylor revisited...some things I saw that I did'nt the first time.
Speaking of NOT listening to the commentary...Lampley said that round 1 could have been dubbed "Round of the Year."
Pretty exciting fight...no doubt.

Exactly and he does it EVERY time someone gets knocked down or even takes a big shot. It does my nut in with him always proclaiming' THERE'S NO WAY HE CAN GET UP!' every time. Go back and watch the fights with him commentating, every single fucking time. ::**

You know...I had never really noticed it until that match. I like Lewis but he does get a bit...silly.
Everyone hates Merchant & Kellerman...& in the end...those are my two favorites. I'll hate the day when Merchant is gone for good. Know matter how much you hate Merchant...he does indeed bring a spark to the fights that no other channels do...that & he's the most knowledgeable, IWO.

Merchant is my favouruite as he's unflappable. He's not prone to the exciteble outbursts of hysteria that Lampley, Kellerman and Lewis etc usually suffer.
Those three always make everything so dramatic and Merchant who usually sounds bored and irritated with his collegues brings them back to earth with a dry comment.

I don't pay attention to the commentary. Which is why I never complain about it. It's nit-picking. Looking for something to complain about. Something little old ladies do. Which I guess doesn't surprise me that your doing it.

Re: Pavlik vs Taylor revisited...some things I saw that I did'nt the first time.
I personally like Lennox. He may be silly sometimes but at least he's a fighter commentating on fights. Whether Merchant knows boxing or not, I only listen to him because I'm not muting the t.v., and I like to see what his next brain fart will produce.At least that fathead Dan Rafael isn't a ringside commentator; what a bumblehead he is. ::**

I live in the UK so I dont get to hear the HBO broadcast until I buy them on DVD so I havent heard the latest ones yet, but Larry Merchant is my favorite commentator of all time and his post fight interviews are always memorable. As for Lennox, he doesnt belong on HBO I think they should get big George back. I didn't always agree with what he was saying but he knew what he was talking about and always spoke his mind!

You keep that shit up & I'll start deleting your posts.

Lampley was basically cheerleading for Taylor. Lewis was all up on him…I suppose due to the fact that Manny was in Taylor’s corner. He kept flip flopping back & forth…what choice did he have.
What killed me was the ending…the fact that Lewis said Smoger was on top of Taylor preventing him from getting up wasn’t that disturbing for me…what killed me was when he said “I don‘t know where that shot came from…”.
THAT SHOT?!?!?! What the hell was Lennox talking about?!?!?!
The end of the fight went something like this: Body shot by Pavlik & then the jab starts working! Taylor backs up, Pavlik jabs, right hand, jab, Taylor jabs, right hand wobbles Taylor’s face almost comes off, tries to retaliate & then eats a left hand, right hand, upper, left hand, upper, & then a couple of double lefts, a right, another upper, & Taylor is already out & sliding down as Pavlik throws a left hook & backs out pretty much unconscious.
Taylor was totally gone…blasted out.
Lewis began questioning that until the replay & then it was obvious that Smoger was on point.
I still just can’t get over it…personally I think that this is the upset of the year to date & also the knockout of the year.
I swear some people are so F****** sensitive and take everything to the heart. I don't give a F*** about the commentary. I rarely even pay attention to it. I watch HBO, Showtime, ESPN, FSN, Versus and Solo Boxeo to watch the boxing. Not to listen to the talking. Every time after a big fight there some clown starting a thread saying "Did you hear Merchant say this" "O My god Lampley was so bias". Or "Lennox Lewis sucks, I hate him". What I say is, so F****** what! Watch the fights with the volume down. It's that F****** simple.
Talk about sensitive...loosen up your pannies little girl...everybody remembers you picked Taylor. You rarely pay attention to the commentarty? Oh please...when it suits you to piss & moan...we all have to hear it...I think you can deal with this discussion. :-*
I don't pay attention to the commentary. Which is why I never complain about it. It's nit-picking. Looking for something to complain about. Something little old ladies do. Which I guess doesn't surprise me that your doing it.
Listen Violent Denise...you don't need to get your point across by coming on to the thread & calling names.
You keep that S*** up & I'll start deleting your posts.
No one wants to listen to you bitch...& for someone calling someone else a woman...you seem to need a bit of cotton on a string.
If you can't play nice...don't play at all, it's unnecessary.
Fine I'll stay off your thread. It's obvious your intoxicated again. The alcohol has made you sensitive. Late.
Sober as can be...it's just a bit unnecessary to start ripping someone with name calling as you so often do trying to get your point across.
:wavey: Tootle-loo.

I hate Lennox Lewis as a commentator because he's just S***.
I can't recall a fight where a figher has been knocked down and Lewis hasn't jumped up all excitedly and said 'Oh IT'S OVER!!!', or 'HE'S NOT GOING TO GET UP!'
I think because he had a glass chin he cannot conceive of another fighter recovering from a shot.
My favourite was a recent fight I can't remember which when some fighter got knocked down and Lewis is all like 'OH IT'S OVER! and Lampley asks the question will he get up, Lewis shouts 'NO!' and Larry Merchant in a bored voice of mild irritation says' He'll get up'.
Sure enough he did :)
When Taylor dropped Pavlik in round 2 Lewis said "Oh that's it! That is it!" & then as soon as Pavlik got up he was back pedalling & saying he couldn't believe that Pavlik was going to survive the round. Started giving him props for having a hellacious chin.
Exactly and he does it EVERY time someone gets knocked down or even takes a big shot. It does my nut in with him always proclaiming' THERE'S NO WAY HE CAN GET UP!' every time. Go back and watch the fights with him commentating, every single F****** time. ::**
Yep. Did the same thing with the first droppage of three for Miranda during the Pavlik fight.
He just get's a bit overly excited.
Bwoy Merchant got pissed the fwock off when Smoger let Miranda's corner wash off the mouth piece...I'll bet he spilt his scotch during that call.

You know...as good of a writer as Rafael is...you'd think that he'd be able to put his shit together as a commentator...but I guess it's a lot tuffer than it looks.
I'd imagine I'd be doing a hell of a lot of screaming & drink spilling. Heh heh heh.

It's because VD often has a habit of letting things escalate out of control & they always get nasty & to a point of no return. You don't have use F*** every other word to make yourself understood & just because you don't like what you hear does'nt mean that it's not right.
He knows I would'nt delete his posts. It'd actually take a lot more than that for me to pull out the "mod dick" on him like that. It's just me "gently" picking back at him to keep it from going further. Gotta take it if you're gonna dish it.
Nobody needs to continuously keep getting banned from day to day for attacking various members on different threads. S*** like that get's you a permanent ban no matter how much mods disagree on who stays or who goes.
Hope that answered some of the curiousity.

Yeah...I hear ya on that one.
I could'nt imagine being ringside for that one. Taylor could barely get his wits to dust himself off it seemed for quite sometime.
I was just shocked that he went back to the dressing room instead of staying in the ring...but he gave Pavlik respect...& in the end that's what counts.

He is a good poster & as I said...I pretty much never have issues sorting through things with him...no matter what the fwock he says. ;D
The thing is...once you become a repeat offender it get's harder & harder to get off the hook & easier to get on it.
I hate seeing some of our back bone members get out of control & I surely hate bans...even if they are temporary ones or whatever it is that he has gotten. It's just not necessary.
Feel me?

taylor gave pavlik the respect one true champion gives another, and i am proud of JT for that...
i have watched the fight about 3 or 4 times and i think Ledderman's scoring was dead on... it was 5 to 2 rounds pavlik....
i think the most shocking thing of the fight was that pavlik had a better jab than taylor.... harder and just as fast, another being how good of a boxer pavlik is....
pavlik will win the rematch, but i think it is clear to see that jermain and his people do not want a rematch, just yet...
hopefully pavlik will fight abraham or sturm next.... i think he will unify then move to 168 lbs....
taylor is still a threat to anyone from 168 and below and will be champ again...
super-middleweight might be the second best devision next year...

What really got me the most was that his jab & his straight right became almost identical throughout the fight & Taylor could'nt dodge one or the other.
I'd love to see Pavlik unify...I just hope that he does.

pavlik's straight right is one of the hardest punches P4P in boxing...
and his jab ripped taylor's head back each time it landed..

Re: Pavlik vs Taylor revisited...some things I saw that I did'nt the first time.
I thought it was a great fight from both fighters, I was really surprised how aggresive Taylor was in the early rounds considering how negative he'd been in his last few fights.
Pavlic has one hell of a chin thats for sure and seems to have devised a really effective style all of his own, great speed fexibility and power, he should go far but I dont think he should be rushed.
He definitely has to do some work on his defense.
Lennox was a great fighter but he's like a cardboard plank as a commentator.
If we want deluded fantasy Chris Eubank could do a far more entertaining job.
I thought Smoger was spot on I'd love it if he reffed the Mayweather Hatton fight but its never going to happen.
I've got the Jay Nady shakes on that one. ;D
-
Re: Pavlik vs Taylor revisited...some things I saw that I did'nt the first time.
Hey Wacko, is it just me or does Taylor ask if he got knocked out. Watch right before they get Taylor up, I could swear he says that. Just curious to see if anyone else thinks so.

Yep.
Both of them were knockin' each other senseless.
When Taylor dropped Pavlik & Pavlik was talkin' with Jack in his corner it was basically the same situation as Taylor...cept he made it out. When he hit his stool the second thing he said was...what happened. He knew he had been hit...but not what happened for the rest of the round or what hit him. Jack had to tell him what went wrong.
That's some crazy shit.
Poor Taylor...he did'nt have a shot in hell at makin' it out because Pavlik put the kibosh on his ass. Taylor was out before his ass hit the mat...seriously, not figuratively speaking. He had his chin on his chest & his fwockin eyes were closed. They were slapping him on the cheeks to jog him back into consciousness.
The minute he looked up he asked what had happened. When they helped him up on to his stool...they had to literally help him & he was still trying to figure out where the hell he was. I've never seen him look so desperate.
He still could'nt believe it...even in the dressing room he was saying that he could'nt believe it.
I shit ya not...I was impressed...Taylor's got a pretty good chin & Kelly's jabs were knocking Jermain silly.
