We could end up with another scenario like Cintron vs Margarito where one guy was a clear enough winner to show that there was no need for a rematch but the hype makes it happen anyway but Mirand would have to get a chain of wins and look impressive
My point it, Pavlik will still have that jab to keep AA at distance. I just don't see AA walking through that.
I'm a Miranda fan, but I really hope Abraham wins the rematch. The reason is that all of Pavlik's potential big fights keep disappearing! First Duddy got sliced up by Smichet. Next Andy Lee got EXPOSED by Brian Vera. Now Calzaghe is ducking Pavlik. If Abraham loses to Edision that would make four potentially big pay days that disappeared.
Lets Miranda prove himself fighting for the legitimate title ... either go below 160lb and fight Abraham or Pavlik or fight Butte or Calzaghe at 168, no shits at catch weight.
Catch weight was AA's demand. And remember, Kessler had just bailed an no one else seemed to want to get in the ring with Miranda.
its not like Miranda could make 160 lb again easily ... beside that, Miranda should climb his ranks slowly with bums as everybody else and get his mandatory spot ... Miranda has nothing to offer at 168 right now to demand fight with Kessler or other top dogs. If he wins with Abraham his stock should rise.
It will be a tittle unifiction fight. Miranda knows how to promote himself, there will be a demand for Miranda/Pavlik 2.
