althought it should probably say former former former undefeated champ, id still love to see the experienced vet face the up and coming prospect.

i dont understand how eastman gets another shot, seeing as abraham ud'd him in july...

It was a German decision and Eastman was not at his best anyway.

Eastman beat Abraham in that last fight (the damn Germans stole the decision!). Bottom line is this is a great test for Miranda. I've seen his 4 fights here in the U.S. and he has looked like a true killer. If he pulls this one off there will be no argument that he is a true contender. I'll go out on a limb and say Miranda by KO

Yes there has been many wrong decisions in Germany but this was not one of them. Abrahams win against Eastman was more convincing than Hopkins win against Eastman. The fight was not that exciting but Abraham clearly won it.
