    I doubt it.East man was average skill wise IMO.The only person i recall talking about miranda was Borikua,besides this marks eastmans third loss in a row.

Miranda landed that right then a left uppercut to his face then stoped the fight WTF!? That right uppercut after the left uppercut did not land! If you say it did just kill yourself. Premature stoppage! Miranda aint ready for the big guys. Got rocked twiced by Eastman. imagine if he were to fight Taylor or ever abraham? HA. I think Winky would stun this guy. He barley keeps his hands up. If thats his style he better change it. Ni99a gonna get rocked. Miranda just has a right hand thats it. thats all he can count on. what if he breaks his right hand what he gonna do? Throw that telegraphed jab and win the fight? Miranda got lucky with that ****ing ref! Eastman will be back!
      Miranda did miss the punch, but think of it this way. Eastman staggrered into the corner, Miranada was all over him, Miranda was hitting him,he landed a an uppercut,threw another one,missed,but Eastmans heads jerked back lose anyway and the ref was BEHIND them so to the ref it looked liek Eastman jus got clocked and Miranda had him trapped in the corner and wasnt gona stop,so the ref stopped it. I think maybe the fight couldve gone on but i dont think the stoppage was pre-mature at all.

      You said what if it was Taylor in there...What elite guys has Taylor KO'd? Hes KO'd bums jus like Eastman has, and u said Eastman has no power because hes KO'd bums. But Taylor does? Im not sayin Taylor dont have power, but his is just as unproven as Eastman's is,except Eastmans KO record is better.

      Winky Wright does not hit as hard as Howard Eastman.

      Abraham could prolly hurt Miranda, but Miranda could prolly hurt him. That is why that would be a very interesting fight.

          If u really knew boxing u would know that Miranda showed some skills. The first time he hurt Eastman for example... He capitalized on a mistake Eastman was making all night,he seen it,capitalized on it, and he doubled the right hand jus like he was suppose to in that situation,and rocked Eastman. He did some things ur average joe wouldnt notice. So u obviously dont know boxing that well if u say he has no skills what so ever, either that or ur jus being ignorant. And to fight a top 5 middle weight in the world and win,u need some skills. Not any1 can jus hop in a ring and beat a top 5 fighter in the world,it doesnt happen like that. Am i saying Miranda has the best skills? No, but he does have decent skills and good power. Hes now a top 10 ranked middle weight in the entire world,yet he has no skills, go figure.
          he adapted definately, but he is still a bit green and took out a veteran in an impressive way.. so needless to say I am impressed. but he did get rocked by eastman a couple times, suspect chin, power goes a long ways... but I don't think its going to take him too far unless he learns to tuck/defend his chin a bit better

Eastman takes hits he was good!!!!!!! but he should have took a knee. I was dissapointed that Miranda won! I'd rather watch Eastman fight he is better!
            Don't be a hater! Miranda is the better man to fight AA. With another 10 week camp in Puerto Rico with the training of the great Jose Bonilla, I see a lot of his flaws being polished. Eastman had his chance and blew it. Miranda is only getting better. He is not at an all time great level, but with a few changes he very well could be.

                      Eastman was out of his mind, he was moving his head a little out of instinct but that uppercut snapped his head back BAD really stretching his neck out like when Tyson got hit by Douglas. If he got hit like that in the center of the ring he would have been flattened instantly and wouldn't have made the count IMO. He was in really bad shape from that barrage. The right hand forced him back, another hard right that did considerable damage and then a clean, clean uppercut. Those three punches ended the fight right there. Even if it went on a few seconds, he would have never come back from that. It would have been an unnecesary risk of Eastman's life. Early stoppage but in a good way.
