    Miranda rarely, if ever, hit him cleanly with the right hand. Most of the shots the commentators were oohing and ahing over that Ward took, he actually rolled with.

    There was one big shot in the early rounds that Miranda landed, and on slow-mo replay the Showtime guys said Ward clearly didn't see it coming but took it well... but the replay clearly showed he rolled with the punch to negate much of its power. How do you roll with a punch you don't see coming?

    Andre's lateral movement would give alot of fighters fits if they are not able to cut down the ring effectively.

    Why dont you learn to read? Where did i imply that Miranda is a better fighter than Froch? What i stated is the glaringly obvious. Miranda IS A BUSIER fighter than Froch and Miranda IS A MORE AGGRESIVE fighter than Froch. :patsch

    I'd have to agree with that.

    But I don't think Miranda puts more pressure on a fighter, because he does not know how to put effective pressure, and Froch knows how to do that.
    And, like I've said in the past, Miranda is not a big 168lbs'er, Froch is. :D

    Miranda has been known to blow up as much as 220lbs inbetween fights. Trust me the guy is a solid 168lb'der. Remember this is boxing size although a factor is not defintive. This is a sport of skill. Not will.

    To be honest Froch isnt an educated pressure fighter. He doesnt cut down a ring well and to be frank only boasts heavier hands and a better chin than Miranda. Other than that both can be easily outboxed by sound box punchers who know how to use the ring. I put Lacy Froch and Miranda (maybe even Andrade) in the same category. There all sluggers who dont put them togther enough in order to win fights. If Froch would put them together in bunches he'd be a force to be reckoned with. If he could move his head instead of eating punches he'd be a major force to be reckoned with. Lacy is the same. Facts remain none of them do that.

    So what were you implying with all the Froch/Miranda comparisons ?? Ward beat Miranda so he beats Froch ??? Froch will walk through Ward,that is a factual statement not a comment from a Froch nuthugger.Froch/Bute/Kessler would have beat Miranda senseless within 6 rounds.Ward although impressive,was way too wary of being hit by Miranda,and as i've said several times Miranda is a mediocre middleweight not a relentless 168 world champ.

    Lacy world champ ? Miranda world champ ? NO !! i was gonna say Froch is the WBC SMW champ but i forgot Taylor threw himself to the canvas with 14 seconds of the fight left. Your clearly a Froch hater and longing for the day he gets beat ????

    Well thats my day ruined then. Why do some folk cry like babies and spit out there dummies when they are faced with FACTS ? If you cannot debate and dissagree/agree with other peoples oppinions why post ?? is your oppinion/assessment more valid than mine ?
