    **** fight.

    Andrade would be great if he cant get Bute (50:50) or Kessler(Carl Loses) or JC takes the bait for another pay day(Carl gets schooled).

    Calzaghe should take that fight now.

    He'd win 120 - 108.

    Miranda would work as a routine defence and would maintain interest in the US.

    There are far bigger challenges out there though, it's not a particularly competitive fight.

    A Miranda fight makes no sense to me personally..... Froch KO early IMO.

    But for some reason the Yanks love him.... so why not!

    miranda, like bika is a tough strong but limited opponent.

    in fact i'd rather see miranda v bika.

    If Miranda beats Ward then Miranda is a good name defence.

    Yes, if Miranda gets buy Ward, I am sure he would be more than happy to travel back to England for a title fight. We need to see what Miranda shows up with Ward. If he is back to a pre Pavlik fighter, I think Froch/Miranda would be a war. If JT can hurt Froch, Miranda could stop him. Of course Miranda's chin would have to hold up first. Great defense for Froch in his backyard.

    Froch would shatter Miranda's Glass Jaw - Edison would be brutally KOed by a Jab.

    He has by far the worst Chin of any fighter in the 168 Division.

    That's completely exaggerated. Abraham hit him with a huge right hand. Pavlik beat the **** out of him round after round and got an accumulation stoppage.

    This could be a good fight, but I would think Froch would be looking for bigger and better things.

    How about Jeff Lacy? I know it would be a step backwards but it could be fun for a couple of rounds.....

    I'd steer clear of both Miranda and Lacy.

    Lacy, after all... was pretty much ruined by his nemesis, Joe Calzaghe, and beaten out of sight by Taylor.

    Miranda has lost to both the top quality fighters he has been in with.... a win here means little IMO.
