The Kelly Pavlik vs Jermain Taylor I appreciation thread

[Fedor Em]

Thanks to two champions who gave it there all last night, to provide us with one hell of an entertaining fight. If all fighters were like these two then boxing would be on the front page on the sports section more often. :good

I say one cause I am sure there will be a rematch. Taylor already says he wants it.

I lost my voice watching this fight. And that's pretty rare for me. :good

It was truly a great fight, despite the Calzaghe and Kessler nutters on here trying to use it as a means to hype their own fighters any way they can.

Boxing needs more warriors like these two, who will face all comers in their quest to be the best.

I dont understand people who say the fight was close.It was never close,Pavlick was getting a boxing lesson throughout the seven rounds.He is definitely a very tough guy who gets hit a lot in order to deliver his more powerful shots.I do respect the guy now more than I did then,I would love to see him fighting Whoe Falzaghe sorry Joe Falzaghe



:lol:

The fight was much closer than the official scorecards. Jermain never set the tempo and let his hands go in bursts. You need to watch it again. Kelly went jab for jab and set the pace of the fight.

It was good to see two top fighters lay it all on the line and not give us a borefest, i would like to see a rematch to see if taylor goes in differently
