    Kessler has better speed, better timing, better defense, much better jab, better footspeed, etc.

    Miranda has better power and MAYBE bigger heart but that's it.

    So all this can only mean one thing : Miranda needs a lucky punch otherwise he won't last 12 rounds.

    I think Kessler is better boxer and Miranda got more power If Edison catch him early he has a chance don't forget Calzaghe hurt him last time.

    Calzaghe was able to hurt Kessler, once, as far as I recall, not only because he has power but mainly because he was faster then Kessler. Miranda is slow as **** and unless he gets lucky, he won't hit Kessler with anything meaningful.

    Kessler's the much more skilled guy and accumulation of clean shots is going to carry the day.

    Miranda's tough and will make a good fight but will again find limitation.

    Miranda has the power but Kessler is a very good boxer. As long as Kessler can avoid the bombs of Miranda, he is in for a wide UD.

    Miranda doesn't have what it takes to win a single round, unless he scores a knockdown, that's how one sided this is going to be.

    Joe hurt Lacy and put him on his ass.

    I can't see Miranda doing that !


    Kessler did much better than Lacy against the second best SMW ever !

    And Lacy was, and probably (even after his near ruination by Joe), still is, better than Miranda.

    Look for a boxing lesson.

    Kessler is too good of a pure boxer to not take advantage of the wild Edison Miranda. I see Kessler sitting back and landing effective counter punches. He wll put his punches together and get Miranda out of there in the later rounds from accumulation. He will not dominate Miranda the way Pavlik did because he is not an agressive fighter like that. It will be close to that because Kessler is better in every area than Miranda is. Kessler TKO 10 in a great fight.

    Kessler has also never been knocked down or knocked out, which makes Miranda's chances of getting a lucky stoppage even more slim. Miranda is better off facing Pascal or some good fighters in the lower top 10 because this is a horrible style match up for him.
