    I'm looking forward to this one. Taylor will have all he can handle in this fight. Any takers for Pavlik to knock him out inside six rounds?

    This is gonna be a great fight. Finally we will see if Taylor is any good. Seems like he just had Hopkins number but is not that good (is that possible???). I will back you on Pavlik stopping him but Taylor won't stand and trade like Miranda did.

    I'd love to see Pavlik knock Taylor out but he'll have a hard time doing it.
    I also have a lot of confidence in Taylor's ability to make the fight boring, in spite of Pavlik's best efforts. :D

    well, as far as i'm concerned Hopkins won the first fight. It is possible that a great boxer can have a bogey opponent- in fact it happens more often than you think. Taylor is a decent boxer, though. He just isn't exciting to watch.
