This don't sound right at all.

Does Arum think Taylor will lose to Spinks?

Or does Arum think that Pavlik will lose to Miranda and later Pavlik will be fighting Taylor again sometime in the future? Like, is Bob Arum saying the Miranda will lose to Taylor?

I don't get it.

All I can say is that I see Miranda beating Pavlik and then beating the man that fights backwards Jermain Jackson Taylor.

Bob Arum has never confused me with his comments like he did in this one.

Reading between the lines I think Arum thinks that Pavlik does not have the experience yet. But he will in the future. But to see Jermain Taylor as champion some where down the future is something I do not invision.
Arum gave Dibella a hard time for him putting Jermain into fights with little guys. I think he is wishfully hoping Pavlik pulls a win out of his ass against Miranda and than Taylor ducks him and retires the belt. Not gonna happen, but I think that was his point.
