By Cliff Rold - Two world-class warriors are going to hit and get hit.
Hard.
That’s what happened the first time around. That’s the promise at hand this weekend as 28-year old German-based IBF Middleweight titlist Arthur Abraham (26-0, 21 KO) of Armenia makes his U.S. debut in a rematch with 27-year old power-punching Edison Miranda (30-2, 26 KO) of Colombia. For those who have had the chance to see the original either live or making its rounds on the Showtime family of networks this week, the rematch can’t get here soon enough.
For those who have still just read about the original, it should still be high on the list of must-see sporting events of the summer. Monday gave a chance to look back at that first fight in all it’s nasty glory: http://www.boxingscene.com/index.php?m=show&id=14478 Now it’s time to get ready for chapter two. It won’t be a title fight as the men will come in at a catchweight of 166 lbs., but it will most certainly be a Fight. [details]
