anyone with something to lose opts elsewhere.. the shameful part is that Pascal made a big deal on friday night fights like he really wanted to fight Miranda.

I think Jean Pascal's people realised he wasn't ready for Miranda yet.

I forget, but didn't pascal only look so-so in his last fight? His last fight was in that card where Miranda ko'd david banks right? I didn't think pascal looked so impressive.

Pascal got his ass handed to him the same night were Miranda looked like god.

Both corners knew Pascal wasn't ready and he would've got KTFO.

Pascal looked slick at moments but he when his opponent was vulnerable, Pascal wasn't willing to engage. He had opportunities to finish impressively but played it safe and looked sheepish. Toward the end.. Pascal's opponent, who looked technically ******ed actually started timing Pascal and made a serious rally to the point that he nearly dropped pascal a coupld times. All and all that night was not a step in the right direction for Pascal.

ESPN was building this fight up as a mega fight, interviews and having them on the same fight card. Now it isnt even talked about, did it just fall through?

From what I understand it was a matter of no network being willing to put up the money to get it made. Pascal's disappointing showing in his last ESPN fight probably helped kill it.

4 super middle weights entered the ring that night. It was obvious to everyone who was at that moment a cut above.
