Green isn;t a bad fighter either, Miranda is taking some damn tough composition, but Pavlik has a better chin and punches in better combos and volume. Miranda and Pavlik can win the fight by either KO or Dec, but we will see the hungier Pavlik push Miranda farther than Green could. It will be a great fight. More interesting than a lot of fights coming along.
    Again... what makes you think Pavlik is hungrier or has more heart?
    Did you see what Miranda did in Round 10 vs Green? That my friend in hunger and heart. Look at Pantera's backgound. You got to have top notch hunger and heart to get to where he is.

    Hurt Miranda and he becomes and animal and goes for the kill. And I dont see Pavlik having these instincts.

      Anyway, I am sick of Taylor fighting these 154 lbers...Powell, Ouma, and now Spinks. This is garbage. He says he wants to fight the best but he is letting that mutt Dibella ruin his career and legacy. Spinks has a shot because he can really box and he has great footspeed to move in and out but I think Taylor will eventually be able to outwork him.
      Taylor is fighting and has fought champs since beating Hopkin...The MW it bare right now plus he needs this break...Hopkins, Hopkins, Winky...that's more than some boxers career..

        Taylor fought Hopkins for a shot at the title and than was forced into a rematch. Many people question whether he won either of these. He than fought Winky Wright. Most people think at best was a draw, but he probably lost.

        Now to defend his title he has been looking for light guys with no power. Ouma, Mora (almost happened) and Spinks. Does he deserve an easy fight or two? Maybe... but the longer it takes him to fight a real hungry middleweight, the more and more people are jumping off the JT bandwagon. He used to get a lot of respect from most. Now only the true fans are defending him. If he steps in the ring with the winner of Miranda vs Pavlik, he will win back many fans. Let's hope it happens. He has work to do in the middleweight division.
