    Lol I dont think this fight will happen. But if it does, i say Mundine by UD. The problem is, if that happens everyone will just go preaching "oh but miranda was a blown up middleweight anyways, big deal". Just remember this thread when that happens (if it does)...

    :yep

    I would have this as a 50/50 fight.

    Miranda is crude so Bika's ackwardness could cause him troubles.

    It was the last straw for me when it came to taking the columnists on the esb frontpage seriously when they said Miranda is the most exciting warrior in boxing today.

    We are talking about a bloke that got punished by the ghost and other then his fan friendly slugger fighting style he aint got much.

    Definetly cause many of the top tier major headaches but when push comes to shove he will be beaten by the likes of Kessler and Mundine.

    Im just struggling to see where the hype on Miranda is coming from.

    Everytime i think of Miranda i think of Echols for some reason, big puncher and that's about it in my opinion.

    Thats all Miranda has.A big punch which isnt uncommon in boxing.

    The bloke didnt fight for a world title in middleweight let alone win one. Now hes up to supermiddle and suddenly we are suppose to unzip and stroke ourselves over this bloke:huh .

    Im watching Talladega nights on fox for like the 1millionth time and **** its still great...

    Miranda KO's Mundine inside 5 rounds! This fight won't happen, Mundine will run far and run fast from ever signing on to fight Miranda.

    True.My bad...

    Enough said about Miranda as i dont rate him and yes we all know Mundine wont fight him as there aint any need for him to take on the bloke.

    Unfortunetly fights aint made on what boxing fans want.

    Very true.
    Bika is the better boxer believe it or not. Sakio judges distance well and is suprisingly accurate with his style of punching.
    But Miranda has bone crunching power and doesnt muck around (neither does Sakio for that matter).

    Both are rough and somewhat dirty, Miranda edges that department.

    I think Sakio could grind out the win and stop him late, I really want to see this fight and it would rate well in the States.

    Or maybe Mundine will stay where he is holding his title making the big bucks fighting tin cans whilst Miranda searches desperately for another crack at the bigtime.

    Ppl are really clutching at straws to shot the mouth done these days.

    How about Mundine vs Samuel Peter???

    Mundine wouldnt dare take that fight would he??would he??

    Anyone with half a brain would know by now that mundine will either have his rematch vs Green,fight a lower ranked challenger who really aint a threat or a fight with a fellow titlelist.

    ALSO

    The long shot could be a big money clash with Kessler.Real long shot.

    We all know that this thread was only ever going to get answered with a no on Mundines behalf.Fight will never happen unless Miranda gathers a title.

    Now time to delete this thread and talk some ozzie boxing,nrl or just something other then fights that wont take place regarding Mundine.

    Im over it.

    Most people who post about wanting to see Mundine step it up follow it up with saying that he should rematch Kessler. Most of them just want to see him get beaten, thougn you're excluded because you think he can beat him in a rematch.

    It's funny how Mundine will come under the hammer for chasing a Green rematch, yet Kessler wouldn't if he remacted Mundine, nor would Green get ridiculed for not accepting a Mundine rematch. :hey


    While I don't condone him fighting bums for the rest of his career, it is ok for him to build a career (having Green, then Soliman as scalps), and not just aim and fail for greatness which would probably be the case if he kept taiking of guys like Kessler, ect.

    The thread wasn't really about whether the fight would happen or not, the thread was about who wins?

    Anyone who would say that does not know boxing. Miranda is by far one of the biggest, if not the biggest 168lbs today. He was 192lbs in the ring for his fight with David Banks. He may well look huge in the ring against Mudine if the fight ever came about.
