he does have that Benn look about him. That crouching style, heavy hands and vulnerability etc. Also, he seems to be coming back ok after being knocked out by a bigger man (Pavlik), which sort of reminds me a bit of Benn and Watson (Watson was a massive middleweight like Pavlik).
I might have a look later on to see if i can find the thread where some long time poster was trying to tell me Miranda isnt a big puncher. Cant quite remember who it was.

Miranda against Pascal looks a very, very interesting fight.
Yes Pascal has fast hands and hits sharply, but he was hurt in the last 2 rounds of his fight last night, so maybe not got the chin to go with it.
But then again Miranda can be hit and hurt as well, certainly going to be worth watching if these 2 get it on.
I just wish Miranda would leave out all the bollocks at the fight conferences
Pascal is skilled and athletic; he is somewhat reminiscent of Roy Jones without the air of brilliance, and I think a match up with Pantera would be an intriguing fight.
