I hope the Miranda that fought Abraham shows up against Kessler

[Pantera2000]

I actually thought that Miranda looked lousy in that fight...and not just because the fight was closer than usual. A lot of the time he had no idea about how to hit Abraham when Abraham was just sitting on the ropes with his guard up, he had no idea how to crack his guard or get around it. Most the time he would, for whatever reason, get real close and smother his punches or pitty pat against Abraham's guard.

I give Miranda a little bit of a chance in this fight. Take a look at the Andrade fight and replace Andrade with Miranda, I can see Kessler getting hurt with an overhand right. But can Miranda take the kind of shots Andrade did is a pretty big question.

Andrade and Pantera are not a good comparison.
Andrade is wild, swing very wide. Miranda is much more of a straight puncher. To me they are very different styles.

How does some native texan farmer know what happened when Kessler was an amateur??

because i know boxing? and im not gonna lie. I was brought up in rural areas at times. I was actually born in houston, tx but spent most of my life in Houston, Brownsville, Tx and Matamoros Mexico. and another thing, not everyone has a "texas accent" here. thats a myth. maybe in the smaller cities between the metropolitan cities but go to Austin, Dallas, Houston and you wont hear it much.

by "these guys", are you talkin bout me?

Nah, just most guys in general....

though, then again you do think he looked at leats decent..... and i have seriously no idea on what he did to looke good except throw and land a lot more(98% of them meaningless punches by the way)than a full retreat fight 20 seconds of every round abraham...

Against Abraham Miranda fought the dumbest fight I have ever seen. So let's hope not

exactly...............i was annoyed just looking at him with that bewildered look in his face not knowing what to do to a guy who threw 20 punches a round...

Miranda a straight puncher...noooot really...even his straight right seems to have a loop to it haha. just the way he squares up, I guess. sure gives him a lot of power tho.

but yea, they are different styles. but overall, I would say Andrade is the closest thing to Miranda out of all the people that Kessler has fought so far, so that seemed like the best fight to judge from.

miranda mauled abraham , whoever that doesnt agree knows nothing about boxing. miranda landed twice as many punches
