    I know man... :-( Miranda in a big fight usually ends up ruinning my weekend and leave me pissed off and sad lol (pavlik, aa2, ward)....

    its one of those fights where im happy that Miranda is getting an oppurtunity, because i want to see him still make a name for himself and that can only be done by fighting the big names, but it also brings with it that hes fighting a guy i already root against heavily, and an extra 'sting' thats going to be there should Miranda lose this fight, on top of the usual hurt that accompanies a favorite fighter losing a big fight.

    I honestly, honestly believe Miranda has it in him to beat a top level fighter.... he took Abraham to hell in their first fight... and he was showing good things against Ward early on.

    He will need to be at his very best to beat Bute...

    As you know, he is one of my favorite fighters through thick and thin though.... and i will be cheering him on come fight time :happy:happy:happy:happy:happy:happy

    Good prediction . Only 1 thing to add if Miranda is in the best shape ever and i think he might be ...it will be a UD win for Bute with Miranda stumbling in the later rounds and hardly surviving on his feet . It will probably a very exciting fight in rounds 2-6 when Miranda will probably go after Lucian Andrade's style but after taking a punishment he will try a more cautious approach . :D just an amateur opinion

    Two KO's by BODY SHOTS in his last two outings against pretty durable fighters. That is hard to pick against.

    Bute catches up to and stops Miranda late.

    Miranda will never be great, he is good but not great, just look at the second fight with Abraham

    I thought Miranda was doing pretty good before getting caught by Abraham in the 4th round.

    Bute by KO 6

    I'm really happy that Bute his facing Miranda because let's be honest nobody wanted Bute to fight Brinkley , at least Miranda bring exitement with KTFO punch. Bute didn't have too much option till the super 6 isn't over!

    Miranda will bring his A game but as soon that he decide to go with his power, Bute will take advantage of this fight . Bute already have face a lot of good slugger who like to pressure so he know what to expect ,when Miranda will decide to throw those wide powerful right hand , be ready to see Bute digging that body really hard!

    Style wise it's like Bute have been training for Miranda for the last 2 years (Bika,Berrio,Andrade) i dont see Miranda surprising Bute.
