If Miranda is so limited why is it that?

    Who has AA beaten? His best win is Miranda which was bull****. Miranda has fought the better opposition. He beat Alan Green, He ko's eastman. and Banks beat Ayala twice. Ayala almost went the distance with AA. Wake up already!

    I was nothing short of STUNNED when there was talk of AA going back in the ring against Miranda! Gained back a little respect for that. But, another case of the alphabets, which are supposed to be promoting boxing?, got in the way again.

    i dont like miranda.he´s an unfair fighter using every single dirty trick to win a fight.but i guess its because his limited and really have no skills,witch also shows when he´s fighting worldclass oponent.
    he has no footwork,no defense,no quick combo´s.....he can hit hard as hell,that all IMO.

    Well, most fighters 'adjust' as needed and "hit hard" has carried him this far. Lots of TALK about his 'limited' abilities but you don't see many willing to get in and prove this. "hit hard" is one of those mitigating circumstances in boxing. :yep

    PAscal would have fought Miranda anyways but its the TV networks who are no longer interested in the fight, not Pascal's promoters.

    Bah! Miranda,that incredibly dangerous threat wasnt able to finish an severly injured opponent who had broken his jaw twice and who was losing tons of blood in every round turning the ring into a slaughterhouse.No,he couldnt.Quite the opposite that severely injured fighter almost took Miranda out in round 9 of their encounter.

    A highly ducked figher,eh?

    According to Abraham#s promoter Miranda was offered a rematch with Abraham but the serious threat turned that offer down citing weight problems.

    Which is one reason the proposed rematch was not at 160.

    Miranda needs to keep fighting more often even if he's not getting the kind of opposition and payday a guy like Kessler would give him ! If he stays active, he'll move up quickly in the rankings and the big boys won'T be able to avoid him !!

    His promoters should let him knock out a few other guys...which would make HBO or Showtime force the best 168 lbs fighters to face him if they want a fight on their network !!!

    But who in the hell is gonna fight Miranda, if they're not forced to?? Esp. after the last volunteer, Banks, got left looking half dead hanging thru the ropes?

    There always will be guys willing to fight if the pay is half decent !
    We're only talking like $50 000....Some guys are just hoping to get that kind of money even if it's pocket change for some.....we won't mention !

    good points friend, but will any of those type/calibre fighters do anything for Miranda's standings in his new division or towards getting him closer to a bigger named star in your opinion? It seems beating Porras and Banks did him no favors.

    I think Miranda is number 5 or 6 in the WBA. You know, the strap Kessler wants but thinks Miranda is not good enough to fight?

    If he only fights guys like Porras and Banks once every 4-5 months...no it won't help him but if he stays active every 2-3 months max then yes it will !! He's the kind of fighter that could actually benefit from fighting often and knocking out guys every 2 months !! Imagine how people would get excited even more ?

    That's what FORCE big fights to happen !

    What defeats are those?
    I mean the only defeats he has on his record is two... Also the only reason he loss to Pavlik was because he was drained making the weight for that fight 160. Now at 168 there is no way in hell will Pavlik beat him now. In fact at 168 I dont think nobody can **** with him... :bbb
