Who can stop Pavlik?

[p4pking]

Who? Thats all I ask.

Um Taylor that's who What we just watched was the equivalent of a tough man contest. Absolutely no fundamental skills exhibited whatsoever.

Absolutely none huh??. Shut up. Pavlik may have not fought a techinical fight but from he fought one hell of one. And he did have an excellent game plan, obviously. Backing Miranda up from the get go was a very smart plan and he did exhibit skill in doing so.. Not only that, but he was fighting for a chance at the middleweight title, and he made an extremely exciting yet effective display of diposing with Miranda, which would please and impress just about anyone tuning in, no matter their level of boxing knowledge.
Sure he could have been more techinically sound, but with the display he put on tonight and with the way things went from the first round why would he have? Pavlik impressed the hell out of me, he does have lapses in defence but he proved that he can take one hell of a punch and stick to a plan and keep pressing the action. He mixed up his power shots and remained the agressor all night even though he was seen as the better boxer... I can appreciate your thinking that Taylor would beat him, and Jermain is likely a better schooled fighter.. But Pavlik is going to be a hell of a fight for anyone. The guy has tons of heart, power, and he has better skills than he showed tonight..
