    Miranda v. Kessler

    We need this fight. Miranda can emerge as a contender in the 168 with a victory. Who do you guys like?

    C'mon Brits... Kessler would kill him, right? Bull****.

    Kessler is the better boxer and has the power and a decent chin to beat Miranda. Don't get me wrong I like Edison and with his power all he needs is one punch, but I think he doesn't have enough variety to his boxing game to beat Kessler. Even Banks last night was landing some counter shots, but were ineffective because he's lack of power. Kessler is a good counter puncher that does have power, so that would present problems for Pantera.

        It's an interesting fight but I think Kessler would win a very wide decision. Kessler's defense is very good. He wouldn't have a big problem landing on Miranda either.

            More interesting is an eventual fight between Taylor and Miranda. They have a dislike for each other, and Miranda has the potential to knock Taylor out, whereas Taylor would outbox Miranda and win if it goes to cards.

            Kessler on the other hand is not likely to get knocked out by Miranda or even Pavlik.

              Well, I think certainly Kessler would be the favorite. But, I think Miranda certainly has a chance. Also, I think the fight would be ****ing dynamite

                Kessler stops him. I don't really know how Miranda can win this. He can't push him back and Kessler is probably better defensively than anyone Miranda has faced. Miranda isn't hard to find. Kessler would be hitting straight down the pipe all night long. Miranda has the obligatory 'punchers' chance.

                  Well said. DO you think Kessler wants this fight though? I say no. I think Miranda's 'puncher's chance' is better than most. I don't think it's going 12. We need more fights like this.

                    If Pavlik beats Miranda, then Kessler beats him even easier. If their was any evidence of Kessler having a weak chin, then I would reconsider it.
