Decent fight, I thought Karmazin started poorly, but was too busy eating to pay proper attention. He seems to be getting better as the fight goes on here. Interesting.

Miranda's so predictable at times, when he stands there measuring where he just kind of pops off four or five range finder jabs in a row you just know the rights coming at any second and you just have to wait and duck. Like a Mike Tyson punch out character, you just have to figure out his sequence.

Awesome. Roman's got guts.
O man dat waz sweet!
Experience > Power
Brutal...good for him.Love when the vets pull it out but he needs to be matched carefully.Chalk one up for the childrens ;D...wait IBF..?...whos he fighting
Big respect for Karmazin, for him to gut it out and go on the offensive after how badly he was hurt takes guts. Especially against a puncher like Miranda.
Great finish!!!
I hope he beats Sylvester.
I had to duck out before the main event, but I managed to catch it on tv here (shows what I know with my anti-TSN spiel earlier). As exciting as the finish was, I thought Karmazin looked pretty shot. He'll get beaten next time he steps up in opposition. Sylvester should handle him.
I give Karmazin a shot against Sylvester because he doesn't have real power. But you're absolutely right, he looked very shaky. Where I'm coming from is he pulled it out from the depths of almost being KOed, that's real heart, and probably more heart than he should have at his age.
I always liked Roman, nothing flashy just real workman like effort in all his bouts.....
Good win for him last night after being rocked several times....I agree with Atlas though Roman does not take a punch well these days...He was looking every bit of 37 last night....A big puncher who had killer finishing instincts would blow him out IMO...
Hopefully he gets himself a fight or two with a decent payday and calls it quits.......
What I really respect about him is that fact he knows the end of the line is near...Even said before last nights fight if he did not win it was time to hang them up......
Gotta give it to the Vet though he showed guts and never backed down...Once a champion always a champion with or without the title
