I think people fell in love with Miranda's muscles and trash talk a little bit too much. Very dangerous fighter and one of the best in the division, but he was outworked by a better and stronger fighter. The people that are saying Miranda lost because he was weight drained are kidding themselves. Give Pavlik some credit. Miranda threw some HARD shots and Pavlik ate them and kept coming. Miranda got tired because he was throwing every shot like a home run and wore himself out, and Pavlik was consistently landing nasty body shots. Pavlik invested in the body a lot more than Miranda did. I think Miranda was really surprised when he landed flush shots and Pavlik kept coming. He's obviously not used to fighting under pressure.

Pavlik said he was going to back Miranda up becasue he cant fight under pressure and thats exactly what he did.I think people fell in love with Miranda's muscles and trash talk a little bit too much.

^^^great points homie....good to see there still some dudes in here that know their stuff.....u know even with miranda being ko'd i still believe he would beat taylor if he ever gets a chance.....i doubt taylor is going to give pavlik a shot though....especially after tonight.....pavlik looks solid and in my mind the next big thing in the middleweight division is the "rematch".......im willin to bet anything taylor's next fight is against calz or jones, jr......Comment

the only problem i had was that when the Abraham-Miranda fight went off.. so many people didn't see it but were talking lots of crap on Abraham.. i like Miranda, but he needs to learn alot of technical basics.. i can see both of these guys (Pavlik, Miranda) being future big names and stars in the sport...Comment
