You're right, what was I thinking. Since he was clearly capable to keep fighting, he should have jumped right up and complained to the ref.

Oh wait. He could barely sit up, let alone stand up.

C'mon, there is no way that was a bullshit stoppage.

pavlik was out in the 2nd, the ref should've stopped it then. Differnce is that pavlik was able to get up after being down, and had his senses nearly back totally, whereas Taylor could not get up, and if he did, he would have be destroyed, as Blocky said.
I had the fight dead even if not for that. I like Taylor and Pavlik both.

The bullshit was Smoger gave Pavlik all the time in the world to recover after his KD. Fuck that shit, give the count, make em fight.

That was bullshit.


Remember the Berto fight? Estrada got up, he looked at him, then let them fight, so Berto jumped back on.. Smoger didn't do that, he let Kelly get part of his legs back, if he let it go right then, Taylor probably would of KO'd him.. but Smoger gave him the chance to come back.

I never mentioned the end of the fight, Taylor was out, no chance, it was a good stoppage.

My beef (and it's not huge, but a beef) is that Smoger gave Pavlik way too much time after the KD. He actually stalled it at one point even more.

I blame Taylor for running out of gas, the guy has stamina issues, and he had Pavlik on queer street and let him off.. it was his own fault.. and I do think he blew his load that round, and never was quite the same afterwards.

Honestly, the guy needs to work on his conditioning, it's his downfall.. he can't sustain attacks, and it's why a guy who has what honestly is really good power has so few KO's, he can't sustain attacks without gassing out. He gassed out so quickly that round it wasn't even funny.


That said, Pavlik is a bad KO waiting to happen with how high he keeps his chin. It does show how overrated Miranda was though, because Miranda couldn't do even what Taylor did to Pavlik.

I agree with you here. JT should have finished Pavlik in the 2nd round. What happened is JT became more cautious!? Wtf... I can sense that JT is not so aggressive to put Pavlik down. Either he doesn't have the heart of a champion or there is an agreement outside the ring. :huh

Thats exactly what I kept saying ! Although I picked Kelly to TKO him but I wasn't expecting it to be like that.. TAYLOR SHOULD HAVE TOOK A KNEE WHEN HE WAS HURT BUT DIDN'T you could tell he still knew what was going on by the way he was moving his body left to right , but wasn't throwing punches back giving the ref no choice but to stop the fight.

He wasn't getting up by 10, even if the ref stuttered.

i knew JT was done when he got mugged and slumped on the corner post, but the ref should have at least counted him out and let him try to finish the fight standing up. if he still had enough to stand up but not enough to fight back, the ref would then wave off the fight.

good rally by kelly pavlik.

apollack
09-30-2007, 01:30 AM
At first I thought he at least deserved a count. However, Taylor was getting hit with a lot of clean shots trapped up on the ropes, and there was one hook that made him momentarily go to sleep, just like when Zertuche just went limp for that split moment against Pavlik. When that happens, the fight needs to stop. Otherwise you can have a Griffith-Kid Paret situation. So, in the final analysis, you can't fault Smoger for jumping in there.

Dude, he was out cold three punches before hte ref stopped it. The only reason he was standing was muscle memory. Taylor was flat out on his feet, and was out on the ground too when he fell, and came to about 20 seconds later and had no clue what happened.

My initial reaction was that the stoppage was premature. But with the replays it was obvious Taylor was out. He was bent at the waist, had taken a number of unanswered shots and was unable to defend himself. The ref made the right choice and protected a fighter who couldn't defend himself. Taylor didn't even try to get up when he did go down, he was simply out of it.

ironically, taylors toughness kept him up too long. if he went down faster maybe he could have gotten back up, but the replay shows too many shots on taylor without him punching back or attempting to clinch. the ref has to stop it to protect the fighter.

Yes, a matter of time. Someone like you always comes on here and posts a thread of this nature. I could put money on it. The stoppage was not premature.

Taylor was out. He was not throwing any puches and taking heavy pressure in return. Would you like the guy carried out on a stretcher as a more conclusive finish? Do you actually know he could and would have got up? I don't think so. He'll live to fight another day.

He was punching him in that general direction anyway wasn't he????

It seems as if you are watching this with rose tinted specs or something!

He was crumpled in a heap on the canvas, tired, battered and unable to continue. I suggest you watch the fight again. Taylor was going down as Smoger jumped in and there were no complaints.

If he had the wherewital to take a knee then he probably would have had it in him to protest.

My thing is If Smoger can count for Pavlik....why not Taylor who is the CHAMP.

If Taylor couldn't get up then fine....but at least count. If Smoger didn't count for Pavlik...we would be reading different headlines thsi morning!!!!

What's fare is fare!!!


It was a bullshit stoppage!!!!

My thoughts exactly. :good


P.S.
Im a fan of neither fighter, so Im not being biased here at all.

Pavlik went down. The referee has to administer an 8 count. Taylor was trapped on the ropes being hammered and not going down, the only option he had was to jump in. So was the Corrales-Castillo stoppage bullshit too? Or Mercer-Morrison?

Given him a count when he was sloched over? Smoger did the right thing - we don't need anybody to get seriously hurt.

Exactly, ropes were holding him far too long. And it looks like Smoger realy made sure that ropes were the reasons why Taylor is still standing you can see him leaning in, hesitate for a sec and only then he jumped in.
Great fight for sure, alltho I feel bad for Taylor.

Not a bullshit stoppage

Taylor was fucking hurt and getting more hurt, had he gotten up, Pavlik would've annihilated him.

Good fight to Pavlik - Pavlik showed that sometimes you can be the lesser fighter but still get the job done.
What? Pavlik was the lesser fighter?

he went down after the fight was stopped, idiot.

he tried to go down so he could get a count but the stupid ref stopped it before.

Ever seen Griffith-Paret?

Cooney-Norton?

You're so wrong on this one its ridiculous.

Pavlik could have killed him on those ropes if that doesnt get stopped. Perhaps if Taylor didnt ALWAYS back himself into the ropes, he wouldnt have found himself in such a precarious situation.

Great stoppage, Taylor was hit by a perfect straight right followed by 2 uppercuts and a left hook that landed near or right on Taylor's temple to put him out.

he was slumped, defenseless against the ropes. he would have been a corpse if smoger hadn't stepped in. kelly's punches were the only thing keeping taylor from crumbling sooner. you've got 8 thousand posts, but i suspect 99% of them are as worthless as the nonesense i've seen thus far.
