Well I guess it's a good thing I am not a betting man, because I would have been out some money based on my prediction of the outcome of Saturday night's fight. I did not want to shell out the 40 dollars for the pay-per-view fight because I am a starving college student, but I will be able to watch it when HBO replays it. From what I have read, the fight was very close throughout, with Pavlik being the much more active of the two. Taylor was very gracious in defeat and it is believed that he might move up in weight and fight in the super middleweight divison.
Benard Hopkins, whom Taylor defeated twice is set to fight super middleweight champ Joel Calzaghe on April 19th. It would be interesting if Taylor does decide to make the jump to super middleweight and Hopkins wins his bout with Calzaghe even though a third Taylor/Hopkins fight is highly unlikely.
