He won in Germany and with 5 points taken away from Miranda - way too many. Basically he is tough and skilled - but so is Miranda and they're fighting at 166 so I believe Miranda will be stronger and less dehydrated. Not to mention they're fighting in Florida - Warrior Boxing's (Miranda's Promoter) headquarters. If Abrahams pulls it off I'll be surprised. I think Abraham's is in over his head fighting outside of Germany and he is underestimating just how good Miranda is. I've got Miranda to win inside the distance in a parlay (small). Oh - I think I bet that the fight WOULD NOT be a draw also - in a parlay - just for a little extra $$$.

Miranda looked like shit - way too wild.

Yep, with his technique he would brilliant fit in those bud spencer movies. Before he tries to improve his boxing style I suggest he should have some english lessons...how agonizing.

Any idiot knows that Abraham covers up into a tight shell and then explodes with combinations. You would think - or I would at least - Miranda would have learned this the first time and had a plan to open him up. Some guys use their brain in the ring, Miranda is all muscle and no brain. Fortunately I didn't bet much and had a good week otherwise.

I suggest you doing the next fight vs. Abraham showing the boxing world how to beat him.

Good chance to double my balance.

It's funny to me because here in Thailand, I deal with quite a few pro boxers. At first nobody listened to me. Then after I'd tell them something and they'd see it happen for themselves or as in one case when I told the guy to move right and throw the straight left as a lead, things change. Now they call me up and ask for my opinion on this fighter or that fighter and whether or not I can help them. Miranda will never be a top-shelf fighter because he doesn't use his brain in the ring, he just tries to muscle his way through with the KO punch. That's not boxing, that's fighting. There is a difference.
