What do you think of Edison Miranda?

Miranda will not last. He got lucky! But lets see. I hope the best for him tho. Just needs to use his jab more and improve his defense.

eastman actually threw some pretty good punches to stun miranda. miranda looked decent in the fight. not too bad. eastman is the highest class fighter that he has fought so far btw. i do feel that the stoppage was a bit early. that's why i feel boxing needs to bring back the 8 count. to miranda's credit, he had thrown some good shots at the end towards the stoppage, especially the one where he measured up eastman who had his back against the ropes. i enjoyed the fight and am looking forward to see what miranda can do in the future.

Haven't seen him fight yet, but if he's knocking fairly well regarded people out like Eastman was, then he can only make things interesting as a middleweight contender.

no clips? i want to see him! shit i hope dish comes around so we can the channels from the states so that i can watch more boxing

i like the guy but if eastman can hurt him i have questions about his chin

Miranda was also hurt ealier in round 6, but he shook it off quick. I don't think the bell saved him. He was a little shaken up, but he recovers fast. Seems like he fights better when he gets a little hurt! I hope Miranda fights Taylor, that would be an all out WAR!

If it wasn't for the bell, Miranda would have been KO'd long before the stoppage.

He's looked good in the fights I've seen, but he will be little more then a contender, maybe a fringe champ. His chin won't allow anything more.

Miranda looked very raw, yet impressive. I think he will be a good fighter in years to come, but he will have to rely on his power too much. If he works on his technique, he could be really good, but he still has potential for growth. If he does work to improve, watch out. If not... he will probably get exposed as a one-dimensional power-puncher.

What do you mean? :confused: Why are you asking...do you think I know?

On Boxrec it says they going to fight in Oct. Hey IWATCH have you adopted Miranda yet?

he's def. gotten himself good exposure in stopping Eastman (something Arthur Abraham couldn't do, although i didn't see the fight, just going off of the record) although he has tremendous potential, i wouldn't put him in with Abraham just yet, but maybe a year or so down the line

He's good. i like him, he has some technical flaws but i liked him, i like his aggression. This guy vs winky (yes winky is going to to be teh undisputed middleweight champ come june 17th) will be a great fight. i think he will put up a better fight than Tito did against winky. But for now i think they need to give him two solid middleweight's(like raymond joval etc) to see how he does before putting him against arthur abraham. I really think that he can knock out arthur abraham but he needs lil bit more experience imo. since he will be going to germany to fight arthur, he must KO arthur or hes not going to win. arthur has slightly better boxing skills and germany is known for bad decisions so i doubt he can win a decision in germany. he needs to knock out arthur and i think he will do that. he just needs more experience. regards

I think right now he is just a contender but do see a future for him in the MW division. :boxing:

eastman been the #2 middleweight for the last 5 years.. and he beat abrahm he was robbed Abraham won the fight. The only one who didn't think so was Eastman. Impressive win for Miranda. I hope he comes to Germany now to face Abraham.

Miranda got a gift! That ref sucks! He should know that Eastman has never been stopped. That shit gets me mad when sshit like that happens. I wanted eastman to get another title shot! Alot of people thought that Castillo Vs Coralles 1 was a premature stoppage when i totally dissagree. Castillo was on queer street and wasn't moving. Miranda landed that right hand when Eastman was moving back then another one but didn't inflict as much damage as the first punch. then landed a left upper cut that was flush but Eastman took it ok then that right uppercut that missed by Eastman moved his head which made it look like it landed. But watch the fight again. you will see how the ref trys to stop the fight after the left uppercut lands. Bullshit! I hate that ref! lol You are obviously a big Eastman fan. You have nothing to be ashamed about. Eastman has had a great career and is one of the toughest fighters I have seen. But that is also why this stoppage was good. Eastman has NEVER looked that hurt before. Any other boxer would have been down already, Eastman was giving it all to stay on his feet. The truth is, he wasn't going anywhere. He was stuck in that corner getting hit with power shot after power shot. When he tried to get out, Miranda knocked him right back in the corner. I would hate to have seen what would've happened if Eastman would've taken more abuse. Is there a chance he could've survied and come back and won the fight? Anything's possible, but there was a better chance he could've been killed! I think the ref sucked all night, but you can't blame him for stopping the fight.

I still this that stoppage was premature! Go look at the fight again! Alot of people on this forum said that Castillo vs Corrales 1 was a premature stopage! Shit now look at this fight! Damn ref i hope he chokes that fat cock face! So you'd rather he let it go on and risk Eastman's life? I think he did a great job as ref and was obviously not biased, warning Miranda for a low blow and holding behind the neck long before the stoppage.

I was very impressed with his demolition of Eastman. It was very impressive, but I wouldn't really call it a demolition. Those who say it was an early stoppage do have an argument. Still, I don't think Eastman would have turned it around. He hadn't had many bright moments up till then. Overall, I'm pleased that Miranda won the fight, since I think an Eastman-Abraham rematch would be redundant and unnecessary.

Top Contender IMO, when he fights a top 10 opponent we will see how good he really is. I don't know if you realize this, but, uh...he just TKO'd Howard Eastman. So, I guess what I'm saying is, he just knocked out a top 10 fighter, albeit an inactive one.
