Pavlik Vs Taylor 2, Bilbo's rbr

[Kev]

Round 7

Doug Fishcer has it even at 3 rounds each. I think Taylor is ahead slightly.

Pavlik certainly needs to assert himself more. Apparently he's never gone beyond 10 rounds so his own stamina could be an issue.

Certainly Taylor doesn't look weary at all right now, it's Pavlik who seems a little slow. Another good body shot from Taylor, he certainly seems to have more purpose. Whether he can keep this pace going time will tell.

Again really close round nothing seperating them but I get the feeling Taylor's fight plan is being the better excecuted. He's making the fight take place at his pace and is nullifying Pavliks aggression.

Kelly needs to step it up

Taylor round again.

68-66

Round 8,

I picked Pavlin by decision No Contest so not sure what you meant with that?

Pavlik needs to step up the pace imo, Taylor is looking very composed right now, he's found his groove.

Again he's landing some good shots, but Pavliks jab is keeping him away. Crowd trying to get behind Kelly.

It's the same story with each round, Taylor consistently beating Pavlik to the punch, good shot from Pavlik at the bell though, his best punch for a while.

Another close round but I think Taylor's ahead.

78-65 Taylor

[SweetPea]

5-3 Taylor per ESPN.

Lederman?

[No Contest]

Im drunk a lil dont get your panties in a bunch I'm just f'in with ya...Im kind of out of it scorewise at this point...

Round 9,

I really feel Pavlik needs a big round to change the pace of the fight. Taylor is being allowed to box and move. I have no idea how the judges would be scoring this though, history suggests that Taylor will be well ahead though.

Pavlik again comes forward but Taylor ties him up. Good solid punches from Taylor. Good jab from Pavlik, It's livening up now, Pavlik trying to establish himself, coming forward again, Taylor is backing up now. Definitely Pavliks best round of the fight.

He's getting back into the fight.

Pavlik round,

87-75 Taylor

Round 10

Taylor showed the first signs of tiredness to me at the end of that, Mancini disagrees though.

Pavlik needs to keep up the good work from the last round. He's marching through Taylor's punches now trying to land his own.

Taylor smartly tying him up though. Pavlik much more active now, solid jabs but some wild punches.

Good one two from Taylor he's got Pavliks attention. This fight is really reminiscent of the first Toney Sam Peter fight.

I'll give Pavlik this round through being the aggressor.

Dead even fight in my eyes Taylor ahead on my card by a point.

96-95 Taylor

Round 11,

Whatever happens now Jermian has redeemend himself he's giving Kelly a real stylistic problem. This is anybody's fight right now.

Good double left body hook from Taylor, he certainly seems the more explosive of the two. Pavlik has not looked like the offensive powerhouse in this fight.

Pavlik again pressing forward though, I think he's winning these rounds through being the aggressor. Pavlik has Taylor on the ropes, he's clinging on, Pavlik hurt him, Taylor is doing a lot of holding.

Good round for Pavlik

Now I've got it dead even!

106-106

[Kev]

Final Round guys,

It's anybody's fight!

Taylor lands a great right hand and starts the round well. Pavlik needs to repsond to that. He's marching forward, Taylor a little wild with his shots now.

Taylor is tying Pavlik up, good solid attack from Pavlik, Taylor seems to be fading a little. Pavlik showing more desire in this last round.

Taylor fires fast but infrequently, Pavlik is slow but consistent. I'm giving this last round to Pavlik.

It's all over, VERY close fight

I give it to Pavlik by a single round with one round even

[Kev]

Unanimous decision

117-111
115-113
116-112

Pavlik wins it!

78-65 to Taylor

I trust that's a typo? But seriously, looks like its a pickem fight, I arrived home just to see each one shoving potato chips down their gullets. Kinda!
