    Pavlik,he KO'd a monster in Miranda,Pavlik was underdog,alot of people including me believed Miranda was the future of the division,he was one scary guy! But Pavlik beat him at his own game in a great fight

      pavlik for sure. he came straight at a guy who had a rep (and KO percentage) of a huge puncher and he beat him down.

      freitas was pretty damned competitive with diaz for awhile...but freitas is obviously a softy and called it a day once he knew juan wasn't going anywhere.

      great performances by both men though...certainly two of the best this year.

        Freitas was a better fighter than Miranda, was being the operative word.

        Coming out of retirement after a loss, Freitas basically came out to see if he could steamroll a guy who wasn't considered a big puncher, & quit when he found out it was going to be a very tough night.

        Pavlik took apart a hungry, dangerous bomber, & did it well.

        Was impressed with Diaz, but Pavlik aced the bigger test.

            How can anyone pick an unproven fighter knocking out another unproven fighter over a legitimate champion knocking out a former champion who had only been stopped by Diego Corrales?

            You guys on the Pavlik train are a TRIP, I tell ya. A TRIP.

            You all claiming he is so good are no different than the Miranda fans hyping their boy for knocking out Howard Eastman, getting outboxed by a guy with a broken jaw (even Ken Norton didn't get outboxed by MUHAMMAD ALI when Ali had a broken jaw!!!!), and stopping Allan Green, who was almost stopped by a freakin JOURNEYMAN on FRIDAY NIGHT FIGHTS. This is ridiculous.

            Pavlik deserves credit for knocking everyone out, but he still hasn't accomplished anything relevant. He's winning, which is all he can do right now, and it's not his fault if the middleweight "champs" don't fight him, so I'm not knocking him for what he's done. I'm knocking all of you for jumping the gun.

              Diaz beat a great fighter in Freitas, Pavlik beat an overhyped guy in Miranda, do the math!

                  This just in: Miranda = nothing

                  Freitas = Miranda's KO power + good wins + titles in multiple divisions

                  Like Gunstar says, do the math

                      Right but I expected Diaz to win and win quite comfortably.
                      I wasnt sure about Pavlik but he absolutly dominated and blew his opponent out of the water.
