Okay, I was letting the video load while I was posting this, so I just now watched it, and it looks like he knocked the guy out with a hit to the back of the head. It's hard to tell because the fuking clock display is so fuking big, and kind of gets in the way, but it looks like a shot to the back of the head. Anybody else?
Good ole miranda..win or loose i'll watch that guy fight anytime. Me and the wife caught him and ward at oracle and dudes throws hard (as we all already know). On the down side i don't care if don king, golden boy, top rank all get together and promote and train this guy he will always be able to be outboxed. It's just fun to see someone make a mistake get caught and get put to sleep. But the top guys will never be worried about him. Not sure about the back of the head punch...but i did see four or five right on the dome before that last one. Those had as much to do with that last one.
The punch landed near the back but it wasn't intentional. Sierra ducked just as miranda threw and the punch landed there. It was a split second thing.
You gotta like Miranda.
That dude comes to fight and either way you are guranteed a KO.
It's a shame Miranda lacks the skills because his power is deadly.
To be honest, as much as i'd prefer to see Bute in the tournament if Taylor gives it a pass, i'd also like to see Miranda in with Froch, i say that a good war right there.....
When Miranda is boxed he's often frustrated to the point of fouling....I thought he would be a nice replacement for Taylor but then realized he's already been hammered by Arthur Abraham 2 times and lost to Ward once.....would be nice to see him vs Froch although I think Kessler would pummel him
Thanks, I was looking for this the other night.
It did kind of look like a behind the head shot
Boy does he have some power in that right hand.
Power shots, put him in the super 6 for the excitement.
Big power:stars:
But he doesn't belong anywhere near the Super6
Let's not forget what happen in the first Abraham fight. In any other country in the world Miranda walks out the new middleweight champion. It was a war and both fighters fought their heart out.Quote:

He is exciting and great for the sport.
He's like the John Mugabi of this era, although not as good. Edison Miranda cannot fight going backwards, and often throws arm punches when he's being backed up. He cannot beat a good boxer with good feet, i just can't see how he can beat any of the top Super Middleweights.
And i know hindsight is a wonderful thing, but im being honest i was never high on the Edison Miranda bandwagon. He's an exciting fighter and i hope he does well for his fans like Pantera, but im not holding my breath.
I think Miranda had him finished with the 1-2 before the shot on the ear.
