The X-factor to me is whether Kessler can survive a big shot from Miranda. If he can, Mirandas doesn't even have a punchers chance. He'll be dead meat in the ring. On a good day Kess should be able to stay clear of Mirandas big (but easy to predict) shots.
I hope Miranda send this cat to the hospital for two weeks like he did Abraham. So what if Kessler has the skill advantage if he comes to fight then Miranda will break his face, eye socket, jaw, nose all that. If he fights like a little ***** then what ever, if not the Panther will hunt down his pray the kitty cat!
KEY word...STOPPED. Look man you can be in lala land all you want with this stuff about Kesslers work rate and conning yourself into thinking that Miranda doesnt have power. Kessler fights scared, its like every shot he throws he throws it like he ready to run. Im going from his fight with Cazlaghe I dont care what he did in anyother fight simply because he fought alot of bums.
I see what you mean but I think what you call scared I call cautious. Actually I think being cautious will serve Kessler well against Miranda. It reduces the chance of "running" right into one of Mirandas bombs, that is, if Miranda is to KO Kessler, he will have to do it on his own powers alone.
I regard Kessler as a substantial upgrade to Pavlik and with similar capabilities, and we saw what happened there. The key for Kessler is legs. All he needs to do is give Miranda a little movement, and the fight will be easy. If he allows himself to be pushed or backs up straight, he's at risk.
Agree! Plus Kessler needs to stay disciplined and focused at all times. No showing off if he's ahead. One brain-fart and it can be all over. Looking at Kesslers record I don't think he has been up against a guy with Mirandas power ...The X-factor.
:bbb You should look at other fights, as Miranda is a bum himself (I use your definition of the word bum, of course. For me, pro boxers are not bums, I respect them a lot).
A guy with Mirandas record is hardly a bum in any sense of the word. I really don't understand why so many are negative towards him apart from the bigmouth thing. He should have been given an immediate rematch against Abraham on home or neutral ground IMO.
you're missing the point. That guy 1lehudson is saying that Kessler has beaten nothing but bums, and that therefore he is not better than Miranda. However alot of these so called "bums" that Kessler destroyed have accomplished much more in their careers than Miranda. So by those standards Miranda is a bum himself at best.
Well edison is definetly the underdog, but something inside is telling me a mayorga/forrest is about to happen in there. I dont know why, but expect it. Edison by KO. his power will dominate here I feel. Kessler will fight reactivley and pay for it. Expect a timed edison right hand to catch mikkel before his, edison is balls out in there and has no fear with going 'bombs away'.
