Taylor knows he is going to lose and here is why.

All this talk of him "having nothing to prove,Having beaten Kelly in the amateurs,Kelly is average," etc and this combined with his poor showings and luck in getting decisions= JT needs to get KTFO.

Exactly, this and wanting a rematch clause, especially at a higher weight, are a total contradiction!

I'm not used to reading odds, but it looks like they're almost even?

Yeah, he made the weight, but he's also pretty buffed up.

Taylor actually said that ?? he has nothing to prove ?? yes because Amateur fights never turn out different in the pros do they Tyson vs Tillman anyone ??

I agree im sick of Taylor just doing enough to win and his boring fights i think he should have 2 losses on his record and he could have been 0-4 on any other night with different judges its about time we get some excitement back in Middleweight division its been boring for some time since Hopkins has been champion and now Taylor.

Is anyone really surprised? I mean really?

Funny

Seriously though, i am suprised at a rematch clause up at 168. Fine if Taylor wants to be a man, cut his loses and go chase Kessler (whops! Freudulant slip!) then thats all good. But insisting that Pavlik follow him to Supermiddle, as the champion.....

Well, if anything i have to commend Pavlik's confidence and willingness to just get it the fwock on!

Gunning for Taylor anyway, i think he's more rounded and adaptable (should his mentality be willing.)
