Would this be a good fight i think it could be a war a fight of the year.
It'd be a war thats for sure. I'd say it could get foul filled too. Miranda by TKO, after gettin rocked himself once or twice.
I want to wait and see what Miranda looks like against Pascal before i make any predictions.
I would rather watch Hopkins v Wright again.....(then again....)
I believe this would be a great fight.Remeber Bika did give Calzaghe a hard time a little while ago.
I think Miranda pulls this one out by KO.. Bika is a tough dude and has a crazy style and throws wide punches, but Miranda is good enough to keep calm and throw some straight bombs to Bika's chin.. Miranda can take punishment as we saw in the Pavlik fight, and I think Bika will leave himself open enough for Miranda to drop some great shots on him.. I think this is a horrible matchup for Bika.. Think of the Jaidon fight.. Jaidon knocked down Bika (BADLY) only by landing one solid punch while he was retreating from Bika's barrage.. Bika was on shaky legs the rest of the round and could've been KO'd if Jaidon was able to land.... I see the same type of thing happening with Miranda except Miranda would seal the deal.
Good assesment there RP33, two good punchers both with looping wide punches. I agree with your view heres CC#47 for a really good post....Quote:

I'd say that Mirnada has the edge as although he doesn't show it he can box a bit and has a decent jab. I believe the jab would be crucial against Bika (Calzaghe should have used it more) Miranda could stop a lot of Bika's inside work and neutralise the dangerous spoiling tactics he sometimes employs.
I believe Miranda at SMW will not tire as easily as the Mirnda we saw against Pavlik, (Granted it was a frantic pace and Kelly could tire a track team with those punches)mso I feel Edison wins it either by attritional ko in 8-10
Totally agree about Bika's wide looping punches, that would be his downfall against a powerful puncher like Miranda who can fire good power punches right down the pipe. I do disagree with one part of your comment and thats the Jaidon vs Bika fight. Jaidon did land plenty of clean flush punches on Bika after he floored Bika with a solid left hook. And to be fair Miranda does throw sloppy punches himself he hasn't exactly got perfect punching technique either. And his defense is quite sloppy as well, so although Bika does throw wild looping punches, Miranda does also throw sloppy punches leaving himself wide open, so because both men have solid chins, and both men have good power and plenty of flaws. Its makes this match up 50-50.Quote:
