Taylor-Pavlik Predictions

[RP33]

Also, genius move making this fight a PPV.. obviously anyone who saw the first will pay to see the second.. but im SO PISSED that it is cause i was hoping to get another free (well HBO) card

[Baby-Faced-Assassin]

Taylor, not sure how just have a feeling he'll beat pavlik this time to set up a trilogy

[SigmaMu]

Pavlik wins by knock out in the 7th again.

Taylor will never be the same after this.

[DaxxKahn]

I am going with Taylor on this one...IMO a lesson was learned..he did his work in the gym without shortcuts and he is ready for business

[Macho]

You know what , last fight were by KO , but now Taylor going take care , so now this fight in my opinion going be by UD Pavlik

[Fenster]

All that I see being different this time is Taylor more cautious trying to save energy.. but he always looks ropey at the end.

Obviously he can hurt Pavlik, but he wasted a golden opportunity to finish him last time. Will he get a good chance like that again? Doubt it.

Pavlik by late KO.

I predict this one for Pavlik again, but something tells me this one is going the distance. I just predict Taylor will be a little more defensive minded and gun shy. It will still be a good fight though.

[RozzySean]

Pavlik KO. He was too strong last time and he'll be even stronger now. It could be Pavlik by decision if Taylor decides to run all night and fights super defensive. I could see him doing that and praying for the judges, always friendly in the past to bail him out.

[ono]

I'm siding with Taylor to win. I just can't forget how much better he looked in the earlier rounds. I think he will be smarter this time round and probably survive a few bad moments to win a UD.

I'll be rooting for Pavlik tho.

[iceman]

i say Pavlik, he has a lot riding on this and he beat the man once so that has to be a big confidence boost.plus Taylor seems nervous when he fights and that makes you gas out fast...either way i think this will be a great match

[TitoFan]

I'd like Pavlik to win, 'cause I've become a big fan. But I'm not so sure it's a done deal. Taylor's got the hunger back, and IMO he possesses considerably more boxing skills than Pavlik. Can't underestimate two things, however: Pavlik's heart, and Taylor's memory of the previous KO.
All in all, though... my prediction is Taylor by UD. I think he boxes Pavlik smartly and avoids trading. I also think Pavlik underestimates Taylor's skills for this rematch. Taylor by UD.
