    Yes, that was a fault, sorry. Now i remember. But eastman was hurt severall times in that fight and to stop Eastman is a difficult thing to do. Eastman BTW was a strong opponent, a good boxer with a good punch and Ikeke also was considered as an good boxer but Abraham handled him with ease and stopped him. I wonder what Sturm would look like when he fights Ikeke or Eastman. But he doesnt need to fight them anymore cause they are not as good as they were when Abraham fought them.

    Winky said after the Hopkins fight that he don't want to fight above 160 again but fight at that weight or below...So who else is he going to fight - I only see Mora as a fighter who could draw enough money for Winky because Pavlik would have to fight Taylor at 168 in a rematch if he wins...

    Are u kidding? Miranda was the talk of the hype train when he was going to fight pavlik. Pavlik pummeled his hyped ass. Period.

    Miranda is still not bad! Lets see what he does in his next fight! I had the feeling that Miranda was verry weak and tired when he fought Pavlick, i guess something was wrong with him, there where not much power behind his shots in this fight. But Pavlick is verry good and propaby always would beat Miranda, i pick him to beat Taylor as well.

    He's the #1 contender to Taylor's crown.

    I guess it would just show that pavlik actually has fans who enjoy his style boxing and like to watch him fight vs. miranda who had nuthuggers attached to his pubic hair.

    Very true!:good But I dont think pavlik is going to beat Taylor because of how he beat hyoed miranda

    I believe he will win based on how he fights. Beating the overhyped miranda is just that--beating an overhyped miranda, it really has no basis of why i feel he is the legit #2 right now and after sept 29 he will be the champ.

    Hahahahahaha. What? When did Miranda hurt Abraham? I think it was about the third or 4th round when Abraham didnt want to continue. Not to mention Miranda was back in the ring months after the fight Abraham had to wait about a year to fight again. Miranda was hurt? Yea im the ignorant one. Wow you must be as lost as the ref in that fight.

    Abraham would definitely lose to Taylor, but he might beat Pavlik...he would be a hard style for Winky, if he puts pressure on Winky...he beats Miranda in a rematch, but he shouldn't have won the 1st...i see Abraham as #3 behind Taylor and Wright, and Pavlik is #4...

    He is a good puncher but would lose to Taylor, Pavlik, and Wright (who knows where Winky will fight next..).

    A Miranda rematch would be 50/50 as well.

    I see Taylor beating Pavlik, Pavlik beating Abraham, Abraham beating Taylor... styles make fights.
