That's right. Fuck you Florida. Yes, this belongs in every thread.

Also: Pavlik just entering the ring. This is a pro-Pavlik crowd.

ps. Pavlik has the advantage on all measurables: 4 years younger, 1 inch taller, 1 inch reach advantage, 2 pounds heavier.

Round 1: Pretty even. Very good action. Bad Intentions was surprisingly very active, but Pavlik landed the better shots. Close round to Pavlik (HBO agrees).


Sweetest trunks ever: Pavlik is wearing trunks that mirror Ohio State's helmet, with stripes on the sides.

Round 2: Pavlik is getting crushed. Downed once, and hanging on for dear life.

Round 4: Good boxing match here. This was a dead even round in my opinion, which I think means that it will go to the Champ. Bad Intentions up one point by my score. (HBO/Lederman gave it to Pavlik and has Pavlik up a point. This is a close fight. The longer it goes, the better for Pavlik. His long, skinny muscles won't tire as fast, and Taylor is known to fade late in fights).

Round 5: Dead even once again. I've watched Talor's past couple fights, and he is more motivated for this one. He was given the slight edge on HBO/Lederman's card, who now has the fight even. Pavlik is bleeding from the nose, but not badly, which is good considering it was busted open in Round 2.

Round 6: This has got to be a hard fight to judge. Pavlik is the more consistent, fundamental fighter. Taylor has the better bursts. I give this round to Pavlik, but could go either way, again. This is an even fight, and I hope it doesn't have to be decided by the judges.
