He'll get the S*** beat outta him unless he improves his defense and learns to respect the man across the ring from him.
I agree, too raw at the minute, hugely talented as a puncher but too chinny to fight like he does at the minute, with some serious tweaking he could become something pretty special, but at the minute he's suffering Benn syndrome, without a good chin.
I don't know about all that babe...here's why...
I don't think it's a question of chin in Miranda's corner...Pavlik punches like a gotdam mule kicks.
He's knocked out 28 of his 31 opponents & Miranda has proven to be durable enough by taking shots from Abraham, Green, & Gibbs just to mention a few. Pavlik must be credited for being able to blast him out. It's hard to imagine many others at 160lbs being able to handle those bombs.
Much respect to Pavlik.
Good points man, Pavlik's power is definitly very good, I just think 160 is a long way down for Miranda, I thought Miranda looked very dry on the way down and on the scales, I was careful not to mention this, I don't want anyone thinking its sour grapes but he looked very weight drained, the punches were effecting his equilibrium a lot rather than knocking him out, cos they weren't hard enough to knock him out, but making his legs jelly repeatedly, sometimes with glancing shots. I dunno. Its true there was nothing wrong with his beard when he faught Abe, but perhaps going to 168 could give Miranda the 'Cotto' effect. Perhaps he should move his head more

Remember the good old days, we miss you Marco!
