Yep! Last Friday, he was unable to use his right arm. However, he absolutely wanted to be on the same card as his friend Alcine. He took a big risk because Norman was in pretty good shape. His promoter should have obliged him to pull out, but money talks. He is a better ticket seller than Alcine. We'll know next week if he will fight in Florida. If he's not 100%, he will pull out.
Again, Pascal went to war with Norman last week. His shoulder didnt seem to be a big bother to him as he was using his right all night. How you can say EASY UD amazes me. atsch
OK, now I see your EXTREME exaggerations. Miranda up on the cards against Eastman before the stoppage. Miranda (take away BS deductions) beats Abraham on points Miranda dominates the skillful Allan Green (who most people think is a step up in class compared to Jean Pascal) Miranda up on points agaist Kelly Pavlik before the 6th round (I don't necessarily agree with that, but all 3 judges saw it that way) Soooooo, to say the guy has zero skill, well AGAIN it just truely amazes me. atsch
Ok Ok so I went a lil overboard. I just think Pascal has the skill set to cruise to a UD against Miranda though. Call me crazy. How the **** was he winning an anyone's card before the 6th against Pavlik?
I think he kept it somewhat close, but to be honest was surprised to see all three judges had Miranda ahead. To me Edison looked like complete **** in that fight. He stayed on the ropes and did not move around. His power was like a 5 year old when he did throw punches....
I'm not saying it was a Pavlik blowout but he was definitely ahead after 5 rounds. Yes Miranda looked horrible that night. That does factor into me doubting him going forward.
True, Green has had much more exposure. However Green is still a skillful boxer and Miranda dominated him on the cards. Whether or not Pascal is as good or better has yet to be seen.
Pascal is stronger and tougher then Green, has better hand speed, and more power. Green had better defensive skills and footwork.
