    Did anyone else find it weird.....

    that Miranda would not even look at Abraham just before they touched gloves in the ring? It almost looked like Miranda was scared, to me. Or was he just trying to make Abraham think that he wasn't worthy enough to look at? Was he just trying to disrespect Arthur?

    What do you guys think? I know I would be more intimidated by a guy who was looking right through me with a stone-faced look rather than someone who doesn't even dare look me in the eye.

    I've seen numerous fighters do that before, where they refuse to make eye contact, but I have never seen Miranda do that before. I also found that pretty strange..

        Not only was he not making eye contact, but he was moving his head around all weird. I think he got cold feet or somethin.

          I think Pavlik looked away from Lockett.

            De La Hoya used to do that. He said he didn't want to feel any mercy for his oppenent before they fought. Miranda may have been doing the same

                can't blame him on that one, Lockett looks like some kind of mutant
