i dont think pavlik really struggles he is a naturally wiry guy miranda is far from wiry look at enzo maccarinelli he is a huge 6'4 200 pounder yet is flabby and got a bit of a belly at cruiser. also barkley is an amzing example of a wieght drainer. his wieght was 160 to 168 even 174 if needs be. but this man wieghed 200 pounds on fight night against toney 183 against hearns in the first match and 180 odd again in the rematch. just becuase some guy is tall and another guy is short doesnt mean that one is fat and lazy while the other is determined, strong and from ohio
Pavlik is a taller guy, but like you said he is lanky, not much muscle. Miranda is solid, huge back and very large legs. No doubt Miranda is 'bigger' guy and I am sure struggled more to make 160lbs.
theres still alot of questions about alan green to me , i know he had pretty serious surgery with his 80% colon being removed , but i've heard thats why he kept looking at his feet every 30 seconds during the miranda fight , but even after his surgery and he says he's 100% he's still doing it , he did it on fnf , i still think miranda beats him in a rematch because i didn't see much difference from his fight on fnf and vs miranda
Still up to your same old ****. When are you gonna learn that your boy can't box. And will never improve...
also another thing pavlik was a welter in the amatuers...sooo it's not liek making wieght is a problem
People forget about lower bodies I think. Miranda carries a good 10 lbs more on his lower body than a lot of fighters. Not his fault he doesn't have chicken legs. However, the fact that he bulks out so much may continue to pose problems, not only because he gets weight drained, but because that much muscle mass requires a lot more oxygen to run, which means he'll always have stamina issues. My biggest issue with Miranda has always been that he fails to capitalize on openings because he seems too conscious about trying not to run out of gas, and I'm afraid that will always be a problem because of his body type. If he had a chin, LHW would be a great option, but he'd probably just get rocked there.
