Who? Thats all I ask.
An inside fighter. Which Miranda isn't.
Pavlik did surprise me tonight because from his last fight I thought that earmuffing himself that Miranda would catch him on the inside.
Didn't happen. But as I said Miranda IS NOT an inside fighter.
I thought he'd beat Pavlik though. Was wrong there :(
You were more than wrong. Pavlik completely dominated.
Um Taylor that's who ::** What we just watched was the equivalent of a tough man contest. Absolutely no fundamental skills exhibited whatsoever.Quote:

I respect your opinion, I do think Pavlik needs about three or four more good fights...in order to fight Taylor!Quote:

Backing Miranda up from the get go was a very smart plan and he did exhibit skill in doing so.. Not only that, but he was fighting for a chance at the middleweight title, and he made an extremely exciting yet effective display of diposing with Miranda, which would please and impress just about anyone tuning in, no matter their level of boxing knowledge.Quote:

He mixed up his power shots and remained the agressor all night even though he was seen as the better boxer... I can appreciate your thinking that Taylor would beat him, and Jermain is likely a better schooled fighter.. But Pavlik is going to be a hell of a fight for anyone. The guy has tons of heart, power, and he has better skills than he showed tonight..
Taylor don't have the power to stop Pavlik.Pavlik will walk through Taylor.Quote:

Pavlik is actually a hell of a boxer with ample power.
Also...if you think that he exhibited no skills whatsoever...find tape & watch it again.
He timed Miranda all night & used some vicious combos.

I think Pavlik will disrespect Taylor like he did Miranda if Taylor don't run.
I don't think so.Quote:
