I just got done watching this fight for the first time. I can go on saying Abrahams a warrior like everyone else, his jaw was broke and he kept fighting and blah blah blah blah blah. Look beyond the fact that he has heart and fought with a hurt jaw....

I honestly felt Miranda whooped Abraham's ass. He constantly put on pressure, he outworked him, outpunched him, and did more damage. Abrham fought for about 20 seconds of every round and spent the rest on the ropes. Fighting like that, I just couldnt give him any rounds. The crowd went wild wen Abraham would fight in them short bursts too, Miranda would land a good shot and nothing but Abrham would move his hand to whipe his face and the crowd would go crazy.

I also dont think 5 points should have been deducted. The headbut....I dont know if it was intentional or not. Either way I dont think 2 points should have been deducted, only 1. Then the low blows, i didnt really see anything major where a point should have been deducted, maybe one when he hit him on the hip kinda. The low blow call in the 11th was terrible, that wasnt low and I think Abraham faked it. I think Miranda should have only been deducted 2 maybe 3 points but deffinately not 5.

Another thing, why were they working on Abrham's jaw when the headbutt happened? They stopped to let him rest from the headbutt and they let his corner work on his jaw. What the hell was that? Im pretty sure they cant do that.

Germany is known to have a lot of fishy decisions and robbberies and i dont think this fight was an exception. I felt Miranda deserved this win. Come on now he really did beat up on Arbrham that whole fight except for about 10-20 seconds of some rounds where Abraham would burst out.

There should deffinately be a rematch and it should deffinately be in America. Miranda deserved this win and he didnt get it. Do it again only in America.

Abrhama fans, dont get all pissed off because of my opinion. Im just stating what I thought of the fight. Just because I dont agree with you dont start going crazy.

Miranda did all the damage, but Abraham was the smarter fighter.

I Agree.

I thought Abraham showed guts fighting with a broken jaw, but the 2nd half of the fight saw him do nothing but hold and run.

On top of that, the point deductions were laughable. No way sould Miranda have immediatly lost two points for that headbutt. He landed borderline low a few times but where were the warnings?

That was a good fight, but it was a circus of confusion with the point deductions and delays.

How was he smarter? Lay on the ropes for practically the whole fight and fight in little bursts here and there? He did hit Miranda when he would go crazy in them little bursts but no even close to as much as Miranda would tag him in the entire round. Miranda fought smarter if you ask me, he fought 3 minutes of every round instead of just laying on the ropes doing nothing.

I'm just gettin through Round 6 right now. Miranda has already landed A LOT of low punches. He hasn't had any points taken away yet, but if he keeps goin' like this, I can understand why. Two points for the headbutt was uneccessary. He should have had a deduction though.

Miranda isn't too smart though. When the fight resumed after they stopped to look at Abraham's jaw, Miranda should have got on him and tried to get the ref to stop it. Instead he let Abraham come out and take the remainder of the round. After 6 rounds, I have Abraham winning the fight, even with only 1 point deducted for the headbutt. Miranada should be able to win this, but I guess he doesn't.

How many of you fools have actually seen this fight??? Miranda may have been the aggressor but he was throwing wildly and missing more often than landing. Abraham won round 1,3,4,8,9 and 10, almost stopping miranda in the fourth. You could even argue that he won the 5th. I find it funny how miranda accepted that he lost and you guys are still ranting on.

ummm I seen the fight. Miranda was missing a lot, sure, but also landing a lot. He was sitting there putting in work, landing and missing, while Abraham sat on the ropes and did nothing. I also find it hilarious you think Abraham could have won 7 rounds. And Miranda also said he wants to file a protest.
