    Yeah my thoughts exactly, but Miranda isn't Beyer (even though I would favor prime Beyer over Miranda handily). Kessler really wasn't put off by Beyers power and he will most likely be more cautious against a puncher liker Miranda.

    Seems like 85% of this forum favors Kessler, so I am not going to argue a losing battle. I will just wait for the shock responses on 5/24 (THANKS SHOWTIME!!!)

    But you gotta be CRAZY if you think this is a one sided boring fight. Miranda will come to the ring to make a statement, and I GURANTEE you he will. Win/Lose/or Draw the man is going to fight to the death. If Kessler wants to win this fight he better be prepared for a war (ask Abraham).

    not really miranda`s style though.

    he never did this v green/porras/banks/abraham/ and actually had it happen to him v pavlik, who walked through miranda.

    Most of your posts prove that you are pretty damn clueless but have you ever seen Miranda fight? If so, how the hell are you calling Kessler one dimensional??

    Miranda will be game like he always is....He'll have some VERY good moments like he always does

    but Kessler is too much for him. Kessler might not knock Miranda out but he's going to be much quicker hand speed wise and much stronger than Edison is.

    Great fight to watch....fights like these make boxing so much fun to watch.

    What's up Pantera.... If I look at it objectively, talent wise, Kessler brings more to the table and should be able to outbox Miranda for twelve rounds if he doesn't stop him on accumulation of accurate punches.

    But....Miranda has a lot of heart and will, great power and in boxing sometimes...it's all it takes to pull an upset !!

    i beleive that kessler will box a conservative fight 1 to 5 jabbing miranda, keeping miranda off balance and constantly having to reset.

    i think that kessler will time miranda with rights as the fights wears on and comes a bit looser he will hit miranda more with power punches but be susceptible himself.

    but miranda`s big moments will not outweigh kessler`s solid work and kessler will win on points.

    the constant kessler jab in mirandas face will 1make it hard for miranda to walk through it, for reasons i have said in the past
    kessler has the best current jab in boxing/he leans forward weight onto it making it a hard shot as well/and miranda does not have great head/body movement to slip it.

    2/abraham despite being at only 30% was still able to outbox and flurry miranda in 6 through 12 and miranda was simply unwilling to let the kitchen sink go .

    miranda has a chance/he has genuine power/underated boxing skill set/crudish but heavy handed and effective./good jab himself and decent handspeed.

    but IMO kessler has the better jab and i feel miranda will get frustrated and forget about his own jab, whoch he must use to set up his right hand , and feel he will become predictable as the fight wears on.

    kessler will have to take his lumps but i beleive he will look good to the watching public in this one and miranda`s style will suit him.

    people act like miranda didnt bring it to pavlik. yes he got KOd pretty hard but i credit that to pavlik really being able to take some solid shots. watch that fight again..miranda hit pavlik square a bunch of times
