Notice they want the fight in America with Miranda's judges and referee, but it will not save Miranda.
Abraham hasnt mentioned any name yet. Classic euro hype job technique,eh? Besides a couple months ago Miranda didnt accept an offer to fight Abraham in a rematch in Germany.
What for? For his shameful behaviour during his walk in for the Abraham fight? Miranda is a very crude and rough boxer who can bang a bit.However,he will never be king of the castle.Whats more he doesnt have any class at all! What did he show to impress you in his encounter with Abraham,hermit? Apart from connecting with a lucky punch of course! Bah! His firepower is totally overrated by some posters here. Miranda wasnt able to put his severely injured opponent out of action. Do you really believe that Miranda would have survived one single round with a broken jaw bleeding like a shot pig against an healthy Abraham? Abraham had been on his victory up to the 5th round connecting with some good shots in round 4. And even with a broken jaw and being in a deplorable condition he was able to make the water hot (round 9) for the Columbian. I for my part cant really see Miranda go the full route with a healthy Abraham. Abraham by ko in the second half of their encounter.
AA is still somewhat unknown in the US. Both Pavlik and AA want to fight each other but why do it next june for some money when they could do it at the end of the year for much more money.
Wow... that news to me. I had no idea Miranda turned down a fight with Abraham a few months ago. You would have though someone with my inside knowledge woulda heard of that one! atsch
OK. Back to the original since you didn't/won't read it. Miranda is a trained fighter. If he lands a punch it is because of his training, not luck. He deserves credit for doing what he has trained for instead of hearing this crap about "lucky punch". Abraham getting caught with it is HIS fault.
Main Events is trying hard to prevent this bout from taking place. Btw, there is no real HBO or SHO money for AA to fight Lorenzo so it would be staged in Germany. But the IBF has to decide - maybe they still grant AA an exception to make Miranda - AA happen. Source: MaxBoxing
