    Great fight

    Easy one for me to pick actually, I noticed plenty of people selecting Bika....I'm about 99% sure Miranda decapitates him. Don't get me wrong I think the fight will be etremely entertaining both will be hurt both will land but Edison will prevail no question.

    If Bika could win 5 rounds against Bute and 4 against Calzaghe...of course he'll be a handfull against Miranda!

    When was the last time Bika was stopped? Oh, yeah...he was never stopped - only dropped once on a flash KD, when he went all crazy...recovered beautifully too!

    Anyone who thinks this fight is a walk in the park for Miranda is deluding themselves!

    Miranda would prove a heck of a lot by beating Bika - a HELL of a lot!

    99% sure? In that case Miranda can beat everyone at 175 down.

    Yeah, Miranda has a good puncher's chance...but not 99%:-(

    I see it more like:

    Miranda - 30% chance of winning by stoppage

    Miranda - 10% chance of winning on points having KD'ed Bika twice or so

    Bika - 50% chance of winning on points

    Bika - 10% chance of winning by TKO/cuts

    That wasn't a flash knockdown. Bika was badly hurt, and was lucky that the KD happened at the end of a round so he had a minute to recover.

    Agreed that this is a step up for Miranda though. Third best opponent of his career, and he lost to the other two.

    You're right; not a flash-knockdown, but a knockdown that resulted from Bika throwing caution to the wind altogether - that's what I should have said. He still recovered very well from what was a hell of a flush hit, though.:good

    Ok.....

    I'm glad your confident in your prediction....I'm sure you have plenty just points for your analysis.

    This is your opinion, again I take Miranda by stoppage.:smoke

    No it won't be a walk in the park, I just don't agree with your vision of the outcome....does that make me delusional, maybe but I'll stick to my guns.

    In 99 out of 100 fights involving these two, you take Miranda by KO, is that correct? If so, yeah, you're delusional!

    Kessler had his chances (twice) but walk away both times.
    Check out the WBA rankings. They wanted the fight badly too. Could have been for an elimination for even a vacant belt (depending on what Mudine does). I really am starting to think he IS scared to fight Miranda...

    Listen, there's no need to patronize me, and lets not assume or put words in my mouth. Only a silly cement headed ignoramous would claim such a farse. If the two where to meet within the next couple months I pick Edison by stoppage. Where's the difficulty in accepting that? What am I your role model? sorry but our ability to disagree epitomizes what this sport is all about and why it still exist. I can say with confidence that if this fight comes off Miranda stops Bika in brutal fashion.

    Sure we can disagree; have not problem with anyone picking Miranda by KO!

    When did I put words in your mouth?

    And...who is patronising whom?

    Think about it...;)

    I heard Kessler management changed their minds in the end came back and said that they wanted the fight finally but that Miranda's management declined

    any truth to that?
