    Miranda: "Abraham is Scared of My Power"

    The final details are almost complete between Edison 'Pantera' Miranda' and Arthur Abraham for their August 26th IBF middleweight title fight in Oldenburg, Germany. However, there is a bit of controversy over which gloves will be used. According to a source close with the Miranda camp, Abraham is refusing to use Reyes gloves for their scheduled showdown.

    "If he thinks he can beat me and knock me out, then we both should be allowed to wear any gloves we want that are legal and approved.

    This makes sense. We already have a lot of past controversies regarding gloves, why force your opponent to use something he is not accustomed to.

    Does Germany have their own rules regarding this matter or is it in their contract?

      Miranda will get KOed in this fight. He will fall back on his career. This fight is too early for him.

        "Instead, Abraham is demanding that both fighters use Everlast gloves because he knows Reyes are puncher’s gloves and is afraid of Miranda’s power.. " Does Abraham actually admit this? Or is this just the author's interpretation

          If Miranda thinks hes such a big puncher, the gloves shouldnt make much of a difference. Reyes, Everlast or anything else. Both should wear the same in my opinion so after the fight there is no controversy.

              I believe in must be agreed in the contract. Seems like they are having trouble with this. I say let them wear whatever they feel comfortable in and is an approved glove. Why won't Abraham wear the Reyes if they are an 'unfair' advantage?

              Looks like Abraham is already showing his ***** side...

                    Well, I guess the Miranda fans (are there any?) have their excuse already built in.
