    REED Seems to B 1 of the FEW that Thought Marquez-Vasquez II was a BIT tooooooooo 1-Sided for "Fight of the Year" Consideration...

    REED Thinks Pavlik-Taylor SURPASSED that Bout, Despite the Mid Rounds LULL, for 2007 SUPREMACY...

    I enjoyed Taylor/Pavlik a little more because I actually cared about the result.

    Sorry to sound biased, but seeing two middleweights bang away at eachother just tickles my fancy more than seeing two midgets doing it, so for that reason I'd say Pavlik-Taylor was better.

    Vasquez-Marquez was better. I think people just cared about yesterdays bout more.

    Watching the fight live last night was great, tense and exciting - with a spectacular finish.

    But to be honest I thought Vazquez - Marquez was quite a bit better. Just so much more action packed.

    agREED with both... but this bout will be deemed more significant, therefore carry more weight come year-end consideration time.

    It was also, IMO, more "dramatic". (Pavlik/Taylor)

    true enough. They're both the top two candidates, I think most would agree on that

    MUCH More So in REED's Opinion...

    Marquez-Vasquez II had GREAT Exchanges, but the ENTIRE Time, Marquez was Fighting an UPHILL Battle...

    It was a Great 1-Sided Fight...Pavlik-Taylor was a Great, Momentum Shifting Fight...

    PavliKKK-Taylor is the one so far. Cotto-Mosley may eclipse it though...we'll have to wait and see.

    That needs to stop because Kelly has shown himself to be a classy and respectful young man in every interview.

    Brother SLY is REED's Homey, but the Purposeful MISspelling of Pavlik's Name is Unnecessary....

    I'm in agreement with SD, and REED. Sly cut that "Pavlikkk" shit out. Kelly is a good dude, seems like one of the truly good guys in the sport. He doesnt deserve to be labeled with the Klansman slur.
