how is pavlik physically limited. he wins by chin alone. tell me who would be able to stand up while getting hit by miranda like pavlik did? i dont even think taylor would have stayed up.
Miranda didn't hit Pavlik very hard in that fight. I didn't see Miranda land a single punch that he threw with more than 50% power. He only threw a couple bombs; for the most part, his power looked sapped (in large part due to the fact that he was going backwards and taking punishment from Pavlik the whole fight). I don't know if I'd call Pavlik "physically limited" necessarily, but he's undoubtedly far less athletic and technically skilled than Taylor. He just hits hard and has heart--which may be enough to get it done. But I doubt it. He's a B/B+ fighter.

no he didn't. he got moved because he was off-balance. which is a problem--but not a chin problem.
