Pavliik Vs. Miranda II

[dog1dog2]

pavlik won, fair and square, no excuses.

Thank you! God, it drives me nuts when people have their guy lose, and instantly start in with the "reasons" - other than the fact that their guy got flat out beat by a better fighter. I mean, if a fight was a close loss, and we come to find out after the fight that the loser had to train with pneumonia for the last 3 weeks, then we might have something to talk about. But that doesn't happen, and sure as heck didn't happen here. Heck, this wasn't really even close to being close. Miranda just flat out got smashed by a better fighter. Period. Fair and square, no excuses.

I like Miranda, and I think he'd be good for boxing if he polishes up on... well a lot of things. He's got the instinct, the heart, but not enough technical skill guiding those punches. Definitely an interesting character, but way too sloppy in the ring right now. I mean, you got two knockout guys in there, one more technically sound with an actual gameplan versus one without those things. Favor the guy who does his homework right?

People didnt seem to think Miranda didnt train when they saw the weighin pictures...

Miranda was in sick shape, I don't know why some of you saying he came to this fight not prepared. Physically he was prepared, but maybe mentally not. Guys body was similar to bruce lee's

Yeah, I was pulling hard for Miranda and I thought he was going to win too, but he just got destroyed. There is no reason to make excuses for him. Pavlik just messed him up. As it turns out I have not seen nearly enough of Kelly Pavlik.

All I have to say is...

EXPOSED.

Why on earth would Pavlik give him a rematch...he is on to bigger and better things.
For Miranda its back to the drawing board...which serves him right for talking all that B.S. about Taylor.The guy looks like he went to the Jeff Lacy/Mayorga boxing school of,if I can't knock him out I have nothing.
Back to Kindergraden for him...

As for Pavlik,it was the first time I had seen him,and I'm impressed...but don't even think of a rematch,he has nothing to prove.

miranda took to many straight right early but he did make some adjustment if taylor vacates his belt.. a rematch 4 the belt would make sense unless they can get abraham or felix sturm to fight him 4 the belt???
