Next Great Middleweight.....

Would Miranda go down to MW again if Pavlik moves up to SMW?

I still think Abraham easily.

Miranda's days at 160 are over. He wont be at 168 for long imo.
And he wants Pavlik to come up. This is where he thinks he would get his revenge.

What weight does he plan on settling at?

I could see him being a heavyweight one day if he becomes more sucessful when he moves up. He weighs back in at 190, so hell atleast crusier.

One thing I don't want to see is Pavlik vs Miranda 2. Good fight, but just no point. I think Pavlik should stay at 160 and make a couple of defenses there first. Especially if people like Forrest and Mayorga move up (or go back down in Mayorga's case). I think 160 is in a bit of a drought right now and if Pavlik leaves, it's pretty much screwed. Sure you have arthur, but....it just needs more.

I wanna see Miranda vs Bute though. That'd be interesting.

Pavlik considered moving up to 168lbs over a year ago. He was having trouble making the weight back than. I dont know how much longer he will be able to do it. I want Miranda vs Pavlik II. I really think Pantera was not himself that night and I want to see what happens at 100%. Plus it would be a war either way, so why not? Maybe not now, but in the next year or two.

As far as Miranda weight... I dont know what he will do. He was in the ring with Banks at 192lbs, so Heavyweight is not that far off. I am hoping he can stay at 168-175lbs for a few years and do well. The only reason I think he should ever go higher is if he is successful, than maybe for 1-2 big fights he could move up (kinda like RJJ)

Well I guess it'd be ok if Miranda had a title or something. Though I just think Pavlik should try to stick around at Middleweight for awhile.

It's good that every division has some good people in it. While the SMW division is packed with people, Middleweight kind of gets screwed because of it.
