I think he ahd SERIOUS weight issues....he weighed in at 169.4 or something for this fight?! Thats above SMW! What would happen if he overweighed again for another big fight?!
Seems like alot of guys want Miranda after Pavlik destroyed him. He was sure talking big about wiping the floor with Kelly and talking smack about beating the shoes off Taylor, so maybe some guys think his bark is bigger than his bite and want to test it. Nobody seemed to be calling him out before Pavlik sparked him out, but now everyone wants him.
Yeah,thats probably true. I'd like to see him KTFO Pascal though! Man,do you realise we could actually see Taylor v Miranda at 168!
I'm telling you Gamo, if you thought the stars aligned this year for us fans, wait till next year. And yeah, Miranda/Taylor would be great, then Pavlik can go and beat the pants off both of them again, lol.
Re: Miranda - Pascal in the works?
I hear you bro,next year is shaping up to be an amazing and unparalelled year but that's a while away,we have so much to look forward to this year.

The contract weight for his fight with Porras was 170lbs, so he was actually 3/4lbs under the weight.
Many fights that are not eliminators or for a belt are usually 1-2lbs over the weight class limit.

I agree Pascal is a joke... he has so much potential, but he isn't changing his style to better suit himself... he is trying to be RJJ, but he isn't anywhere near as fast or elusive as Roy nor does he have the power that Roy had.

Very valid point Pantera.
Also all this talk about Pascal being the poor mans RJJ.... ::** I've seen him fight whoever really thinks hes somewhat like RJJ has been smoking some serious shit!
To me hes just a kid with his own style some of the things he does might be mocking (if you will) of RJJ but he has it all wrong. IMO and does not have the athletisim that RJJ once had.
