    Both fighters lost their rematch via 4th round KO against a fighter they gave a run for their money in the first match.(Andrade vs. Bute, Miranda vs. AA)
    But i think both are better than the result of their respective rematch suggests. They just lost to two TOP Level fighters on a mission to proving the world that the first match was a fluke.

    I have a hard time predicting the outcome of this fight.
    Miranda can bang and Andrade can be hit. But Andrade normally has a great chin and puts you under pressure the whole fight while Miranda doesn´t have much to offer apart from punching power.
    So, who would come up on top in a match between these two fighters?

    Yesterday, i would have agreed with you without hesitating. But i never thought Andrade would get knocked out inside 4 rounds. Of course Bute is lightyears ahead of Miranda when it comes to boxing skills, but the one thing Miranda has is Power. So i´m not so sure anymore...

    People act like he was knocked out from a head punch.... that body shot was a killer, and my boy miranda is not a great body puncher.

    Ya Andrade got put down from a head shot just prior... but Mack did the same thing... Andrade can get put down from certain punches he doesnt see coming, he then smiles, gets back up and continues to dish out punishment.

    I think Miranda would look great against Andrade for the first 4 rounds.... and probably hurt Andrade, perhaps a knockdown too.... but i think Andrade starts making it really fustrating for Pantera around round 5,6,7 and i really dont know how it would play out down the stretch.

    This fight for me is up in the air but i think i would favor Andrades activity and pressure... and just his overall comfortability with it being a dog fight.

    This fight would suck though as both are two of my favorite fighters.

    I think Miranda could do well for the first half of the fight but Andrade's pressure would eventually get to Miranda who doesn't have the greatest stamina.

    Andrade by late TKO

    I agree. Andrade is taking Miranda to Chinatown.

    Andrade vs Bika is a far better fight.

    You might be right. But i still think Andrade vs. Miranda would be a very interesting fight tough.

    This is a very interesting parallel and would make for an interesting scrap...especially if Miranda gets by Stieglitz and gives them a shared victory to contrast.

    Although the knockout of the presumed unknockoutable still has me reeling, my pick in this remains Andrade by stoppage. :good

    Miranda would KO Andrade. Better boxer, better defense, harder puncher. Miranda took Abraham to the gates of hell. Andrades claim to fame is getting dominated 11 rounds and nearly KOing Bute.

    Better boxer? :lol:

    Zero isn't more than zero. They're both on the same plane of boxing skill. :good

    I would pick Andrade by KO. Pavlik showed what happens to Miranda when you don't let him act the part of the bully. No way Miranda backs up Andrade either.

    Very good fight.

    Miranda would have success early using his jab and big right but after 4 rounds he''ll slow down and fall in love with his power like always and I think he'd get stopped mid to late.
    I think the key is who can back who up cuz neither guy can fight going backwards.Andrade would back him up IMO.
