[switchsouthpaw]

BoxingScene.com has been advised by numerous sources that undefeated IBF super middleweight champion Lucian Bute is likely going to defend his title against dangerous puncher Edison Miranda on April 17 on HBO. Both Miranda and Jesse Brinkley were in the running for the fight. HBO, for their own reasons, were not very receptive to Brinkley fighting Bute. They have far more interest in Bute-Miranda.

Brinkley is more deserving, eff HBO.

Miranda is hillarious outside the ring. Inside the ring I can't really seeing Bute at this point in his career though. Bute by stoppage.

Mirand doesn't deserve a shot at Bute but Bute is overrated anyway so it works perfect.... I wish Pac/Mayweather worked out this easily ...

Why don't Bute and Dawson fight each other? And I don't think the Martinez-Pavlik fight will happen either. Pavlik is low balling him on the money like he is with Paul Williams.

Miranda has more lives than a cat. This guy keeps getting meaningful fights against the top fighters

[Pantera2000]

The guy has the best management I have ever seen. Who else has made as much money and TV appearances as Edison Miranda and never have won a title. ****, imagine what happens if he actually beats Bute. He will be on top of the world! Gotta love him!

That sounds like a good action fight. I think Ill be rooting for Miranda, the man has had a tough career.

haha your too funny!
You think Bute can do what Abraham and Pavlik did?
I dunno... He is slick and quick like Ward. I dont know if he has the power. Miranda's chin is pretty damn good considering. I am just hoping Miranda finds Bute early and turns him into the 12th round man we saw against Andrade.
