      You want to talk about getting screwed? Just watch the DVD of Miranda's Sept. 23 title challenge in Germany against Arthur Abraham. Where do we begin? The scoring was atrocious, but referee Randy Neumann was a disaster. He should be barred from ever setting foot in a ring again. Three of his point deductions were a joke. His failure to warn Abraham for excessive holding was pathetic, and his handling of the fifth-round foul/injury was horrific. Bottom line: At worst, Miranda should have won a decision. At best, he should have had a fifth-round TKO. To the credit of the IBF (yes, we said it), it left Miranda No. 1 in its rankings because it knows how poorly the fight was handled.

          I agree. It was a bs decision. The ref should be fired period. That doctor that was checking on abraham was terrible. I hope the rematch happens in the us so that way everything will be fair and it be no excuses.

              The fight was in Germany Miranda knew itd be handled poorly yet he still went. He knew it would end like that yet he still went. Now he wants to act like robberies never happen in Germany. Who cares either way, he put on a poooor preformance, and couldnt take out a serverly injured fighter. Anyhow the only fight I wanna see at middle is JT-WW II so they can rate whoever they want for a belt Taylor abandoned and was wrongfully stripped of. He was stripped because he rematched hopkins or was it for fighting the top middle out there in winky? Either way IBF belt means **** and they can toy with it all they want.

                    He's saying at welterweight...he also rates Jermain Taylor above Winky at middleweight just because he's the champ.
