I'll take you up on it RP33
Sounds good Legion.. it's a deal.

I'd love to see Taylor avenge this loss.. thing is, even with all of that wasted motion supposedly tiring him out last fight, i don't think he lost cause he was tiring. He just got caught, and I am real interested to see how he approaches Pavlik in this rematch.

I don't think he has the slickness to avoid Pavlik and box himself to a decision for 12 rounds, so i think he needs to go for the KO and just try to catch him like he caught Pav in round 2 of the first fight.

Pav's pressure will make it VERY hard for Jermain to last 12 rounds.. the way to beat a pressure fighter like him will be to knock him out.. just like Edison Miranda got knocked out, and just like Ricky Hatton just did.
Yeah, sounds good

It will be interesting to see how he approaches this fight. All the nervousness he brings in with him; coupled with the tendency to not know how to control a fight and where it goes, will make it hard to beat Kelly.

JT can never seem to decide where he wants to take the fight, and goes from the center to the ropes, from banging to boxing, and gets panicky at times, at least IMO. Kelly might not be the best boxer, but he is relentless in his attack and doesn't panick, and those things plus his size, output, and power wear guys down.

JT IMO would do well to try and make this an inside fight and go to Pavlik's body, which I can't see taking a sustained attack. If he stays out he may win rounds on points like last time, but eventually he'll tire and will get caught out in the open like the last fight, then get buried in the corner. He needs to get and stay close to Pavlik and work the body, IMO anyways.
