McGirt ruined Gatti? He saved him from taking unnessesary punishment with the style change and I don't think Gatti would have won his last fight without McGirt.

McGirt does great with Gatti. The only mistake he made with him was trying to outbox PBF. Other than that hes brought out the best in him

Miranda has a great trainer in Jose Bonilla. He has trained both Tito, Casamayor, and other greats. I think he did a great job with Miranda in their 10 week camp. I am sure he will be reviewing this fight closely and work hard on the few problems Miranda still holds. I think with a little better defense and more contol on his power shots he will be unstoppable.

Maybe the use of his jab a little more too and not holding his left so low when he's so close to someone

haha,all thistime i thought Panteras Name was from "Panteras italian Bread & pastrys"

Lord have mercy! I never thought the day would come, but I actually gave Mr Means a !

What is up with Pavlik though? Last I heard he 'supposedly' hurt his hand as hasn't make any noise since. Not to bring it up, but does it have to do with the 'incident' he got himself into? Before this layoff he was pretty active.

I think he's just letting his hand heal, we'll probably hear from him within 4 or so months

But I want to see Pavlik on ESPN soon he's only been on Shobox once Miranda should be on Shobox too.

I think Miranda just bought a date with HBO with the Eastman KO

yea like starr said hes resting and he used to have alot of problems w/ his hand so it just needs alittle time but he came in kinda overtrained against Zuniga so i'm sure this is a good time off for him ...i havnt seen much of him honestly

CC back ur man did look good

i think he needs to work a bit more on his technical boxing, and his defense, he looked good for the most part, but he got hit too cleanly and was even rocked, i think in a couple more fights he might be ready for the rest of the big guys, right now i think he'd lose just as badly as Lacy did against Calzaghe

I was very impressed with Miranda he kept his poise and fought a smart fight he didn't rush into the fight and was very patient.


Miranda beats Pavlik

I was somewhat impressed.. Very impressed with him offensively, but honestly, he could have just as easily lost that fight if Eastman had landed the right hand 30 seconds before.. He was badly hurt, completely saved by the bell.. I dunno how he would fair against most top guys.. Eastman's no big puncher so I think most top middles could rock him like that and with his defence that's a problem.

Miranda beats Pavlik

obviously i'm biased on this subject but Pavliks the better boxer ..as far as who looks more comfortable in the ring etc....and Pavlik is known for his slick defense ..his KO ratio makes him look like a slugger but hes really not anyway i dont think Miranda loooked a whole lot better than Zuniga ...both have hard punching styles ...anyway i cannot wait for these 2 to meet

Eastman has 35 KO's in 40 wins. That's not a big puncher And lets not forget, if Miranda had hit Eastman in that 5th round 30 seconds earlier, Eastman would have went too.
