    How the hell is this tito-wright II?
    C'mon people, Miranda is not Tito.
    Miranda is bigger, stronger, tougher than Tito.

        Miranda has the style to force a fight out of you because he's always coming fourth, even Trinidad if he let his hands go could have beaten both Wricht and hopkins because fighters like those tend to use their bodies as shields, Winky for one catches A LOT of punches on his arms and shoulders and while that doesn't win rounds he will eventually have to do something if the person punching just continues to punch, he can't defend ALL DAY he eventually has to let his hands go or just defend all night from continuous blows, Miranda has fast hands and crushing power, he is a pressure fighter and he has 1 puinch knockout power making him an animal, Winky has skills and a great defense, his jab is superb but what ****s him up for me is his lack of power and repetitive punches, the whole 1, 2 block thing, he throws a 1, 2 the just balls up, he's a hell of a counter puncher but he doesn't have enough power to keep opponents at bay, Miranda can take his 1, 2 and throw 4 back at him, that worries me for Wright..

        I think Winky has enough experience to out do Edison at 160 and lower but I think 168 will be too high for him, he will gas towards the later rounds and even though his flawless defense wont be phased by much it will be phased just enough for Edison to land some round stealing/winning bombs, the higher the weight the better are Edison's chances and the lower the weight the better for Winky, even split so my opinion goes according to weight, at 168 Miranda takes it by continuous pressure that will eventually force Winky to open up more and bring out the Winky who showed up in the Taylor fight, a Winky that wont ALWAYS just guard but one who will get gritty with someone who built their whole career getting gritty..

        in that kind of a fight Edison has the edge and would win IMO but any lighter weight and Winky can tame him, 1 because Edison belongs in 168, for him those extra 8 pounds make a HUGE difference, a match winning difference and if it went down at 160 I just don't think he will have the longevity of strength to even make it a fight towards the later rounds, he might win like 3 or 4 rounds then Winky will cruise to a win.. at 168? Miranda due to the power edge and him wearing Winky down, any lighter? Winky, he'll be too slick and smart for the brutal 1 punch fighter Edison Mirdanda..

            Miranda has never shown me anything that says he could deal with a p4p boxer like Winky.

            Although I like to watch Miranda because he is a hard-hitting exciting fighter, I think you guys are vastly overrating him until he proves otherwise.

            So far he fought tooth and nail with Abraham (even though he broke Abe's jaw), was dropped by Green, and was KO'd by Pavlik.

            He has never even been near a fighter of Winky's calibre.

                2 of my favorite fighters. DAMN, this is a hard one to chose.

                My heart wants Miranda to win but I know I my mind Winky will win this one by UD.

                I dont see Miranda breaking Winky's "D". Miranda still needs to work on his boxing ability. IMO Winky will walk him down, keep a steady jab and his face and keep the pressure up.

                This fight that should be made this year.

                    Miranada couldn't land a clean punch on winky, too sloppy for winky imo

                      I'm always inclined to pick the bigger man.

                      A good big man beats a great little one.

                      Miranda by stoppage. I can't see his crude self decisioning Winky.
