Kirkland is probably too green for Pavlik or Miranda at the moment but there's still good matchups for him at 154. Imagine Kirkland vs Alfredo Angulo,Mean Joe Greene,Joel Julio or Chavez Jr.
i was also thinking how good he could be 160. he's got an exciting style and im glad that networks like HBO are opening their doors to him now. before that they showcased him on shobox alot. honestly i love fighters like him, i know some people prefer talent and skills like mayweather but i prefer punchers who dont bull**** in the ring
what i really was thinking was the power. would it be the same at 160? i dont know. he has yet to fight a better competition at 154, but i was never to impressed with that division. once he done there, i really look forward to him stepping to the middleweight division.
right now i can see a guy like pavlik beating him. maybe in few years ill change my mind..
Great Post. I have always liked the punchers more than anything. I appreciate the sweeter side also, but with punchers going at it, it adds a sense of excitement that cannot be matched.
