Miranda definitely worked him in 10,11,12. If he hadn't have been so ******, maybe he could have won on the cards. I'd say 3/5 point deductions were unquestionably deserved. Miranda is definitely not a good finisher. He's got a guy with a broken jaw, and a chance to jump on him and stop it immediately after the guy's jaw is examined, but he doesn't take it. Instead, he lets the guy come out and win the rest of the round. He just really sucks at cutting off the ring. Every time he put Abraham on the ropes, Abraham was able to slip and get away. His punching accuracy just ****** too much early on, so Abraham wasn't dog tired in the late rounds, despite the damage to his jaw. If Miranda had done some good work early on, before Abraham was forced to sit back and protect his jaw, it would have been over.

Yea i suppose Abraham's face looking like he was beat with a bill club just happened from not being hit. Miranda actually landed a lot of punches, watch it again. Its just hard to notice because the crowd goes crazy everytime Abraham moves and did nothing at all when Miranda would tag him.Comment

I thought through the first 6 rounds that Miranda threw a lot of punches, but the ones that landed were sloppy. Abraham threw fewer, but he landed good accurate hard shots. And he didn't fight for "only 20 seconds" of the round. You can make the case that he did that from round 9 onward, but not early, and not even so much during the middle rounds. Miranda was landing a lot of shots in 10,11,12, but unfortunately those are only three rounds, and since he didn't score any KDs, it doesn't do him many favours on the cards. There's no way this was a robbery. It was Miranda throwing away a fight any good fighter would have finished. There's no way it should go to the cards when your opponent has a freakish broken jaw, unless you're lacking in the skills department. People can complain about the ref all they want, but it's really irrelevant, because the fight never should have gone to the cards, and never should have been in the ref/judges hands.Comment

Abraham was completely dominated, all he could do was run, fold up, or tie up in a turtle shell and wait until he could get away from Miranda. I cannot belive people are saying this is fight of the year materail, I expected a good fight but what I seen was garbage. Two hitts dont win you the whole round...
Also whats sad is that we watched Guzman/Barrios which was a bullcrap descion also.Last edited by IwatchBoxing; 09-24-2006, 06:27 PM.Comment

Hey IwatchBoxing
Lets get in the ring and let me hit you on the balls several times, head butt you, and fight dirty and let me see what the **** you gonna do. Your a ****ing biased idiot and should not have posting priviliges. Arthur Abraham had Miranda rocked several times and after Abraham's jaw was broken, Miranda couldnt finish. What the **** are u smoking on? Did u watch the ***in fight or did u make everything up?Comment

There's really no point in trying to talk sense into these morons, mate. Let them believe that miranda "dominated" abraham. At the end of the day, arthur is the one with the strap and the un-defeated record,he will be back and stronger. no-one will step into the ring with that crackhead columbian again after his disgusting antics, he doesn't deserve another chance at a title.Comment
