    Don't worry snakeface, I'm coming from the public training and this fight won't go the distance.

    My judgment hasn't changed. Bute and Miranda are not on the same skillset level. If there is a Goosen effect, it doesn't appear in his footwork. Edison still has his puncher's chance but it would take a huge mistake. I feel a very bad night for Miranda. Bute is way faster, both with his feet and his hands. He's way more accurate too.

    I think I know at least one blow they have prepared for Miranda but I won't tell you. It's a secret.

    Both men look very sharp and in a great shape. Miranda is very fit. As said before, Miranda is near the weight. Bute only has 5 to 6 pounds to lose. Very easy for him. Sometimes, he still has 10 to 12 pounds to lose one week before the fight.

    It was Fightfan. I met him and boxinginmont live for the first time. It would have been nice to see you. Maybe at the wegh in?

    Larouche and Goosen seemed to have much respect one for eachother. They took a few minutes to talk together.

    What the hell was up with Larouch shorts??? :)
    Anyway, after seeing Pantera in person and his shape, how does it make you feel? Any more/less confident?

    Looks bad from up close, I mean Edison is probably in his best shape ever, but, so does Lucian. I will also say that Bute has never been that focus and concentrated before a fight. If you add the fact that he is in an never ending learning and perfecting process, is a little scary for anybody that can make 168. So bad we missed you, maybe later....

    Probably just constipated, but don't worry, he has time to 'work it out' before the fight. :lol:

    Sherlock Pipe Wrenched is as close as we got to knowing his identity. I doubt he gives himself up now. Never know though.... :think

    More confident, but it doesn't change anything, as I was giving him the puncher's chance. I still give him that good old puncher's chance but it will be very difficult for Miranda to connect cleanly.

    Maybe Goosen has taught Edison to go to the body to lower the guard in the later rounds?
