Bro,I don't hate on anyone(except Darchinyan but not anymore ). JT is a very good fighter who has shown some limitations in his last few fights for whatever reason. I still think he is P4P for his showings v B Hop and Winky. I just don't understand pputting in a clause or a rematch at a higher weight. If he loses,he will obviously use the "I was weight drained,watch the rematch" line.I find it interesting that JT's team asked for it but Pavlik,who is also struggling with the weight,did not ask for a rematch clause.
I agree it is strange to have the rematch clause at a higher weight, but it is not that surprising that only one camp have a rematch clause. After all, if a champion disposes of a challenger easy, then there doesn't really seem the need for a rematch. Pavlik may want a rematch clause, but he doesnt necessarily have the bargaining position to get in the contract.
CC,I didn't see it that way,that Pavlik may be did not have the leverage to insert a rematch clause although he seems like the kind of guy that wants to get the job done there and then,seek and destroy type!
