    according to the show .. every single fighter who has trained their .. has won their fights


    but I think Larry Merchant said it best "a star is born or reborn"

        that's pure B/S.....about training @ pocanos.....so are telling if miranda trains there and gets a re-match w/pavlik he will win ?
        hey let me tell from what I saw the atmosphere looks great, a boxer's paradise but it doesn't do miracles, JT has to show his balls, so better shine

          You are misinterpreting what they are saying and thinking that it is the pocanos that gives fighters magic powers to win. They are saying that area, the seclusion and having boxing on your mind 24/7 helps fighters focus and prepares them better than anything to win their fights.

            ohh i know of course I understand, I was just trying to make it funny,
            like I said it is a boxer's dream to train in that atmosphere for every fight

              It's hard not to like Pavlik.

              He's a Boxing archetype.

                I liked how they showed the contrast in trainers more than anything actually. We all know about Taylor. It was nice to learn a little about Kelly Pavlik.

                Good show.
