    Mundine is chasing a fight with Abraham this year, his speed will trouble King Arthur. I suspect a Pavlik V Abraham fight will now be made instead.

    That's a biatch move by Arthur's brother, that's for sure, but Arthur shouldn't be fined for $100,000 for his brothers actions.

    Miles aside from the 3 knockdowns.

    Miranda out-punched and out landed Abraham.
    Abraham fought almost the entire fight in defense mode with his hands up in a peek-a-boo style. Only shooting his right hand once or twice a round until round 4 where he just let off.
    I need to see this. Sounds like quite a fight. I havent actually seen that much of Abraham.
    miles,
    I've seen plenty of AA in my time. I used to be HIGH on him around 2004/5 and when he picked up the title I tought he was unstopable. I mean the guy was fierce and just came to fight then somewhere along the Shannon Taylor & Kofi Jantuah fight something changed not sure what but he just backed off and he started fighting different. He would just stand there much like he did tonight just starring at his opponent. I really don't understand how he's made it this far. Well actually I do it's his power that has helped him.
    If he really want's to be at the top hes gonna have to box more cause it's gonna take something more then power to beat elite fighters.

    If Arthurs brother was part of the Corner men then he will be fined.

    If he wasn't then I'm sure Arthur wont be fined for that.
    Then again, I don't think Arthur brother has 100 g's lying around his house.
    So in the end whether they fine his direct or his brother the money will more the likely come out from Arthurs account.

    Miranda got out-smarted. Great game plan by Abraham and his corner. From round 1-2, I could tell the King was up to something.

    Great gameplan by Abraham, he was facing a guy that had obviously hit him with shots hard enough in the first fight to break his jaw, so he did the right thing by fighting defensively for the first round, found his rhythm, and then took his shots when they came. Alll credit to Abraham for using his head and taking apart Miranda the way he did.

    Alexander is not apart of his official corner team.

    But I read this morning that Arthur is being fined $100,000 for failure to control his entourage. If Arthur does not pay the fine, he will be banned from fighting in the US until he pays the fine.

    BTW, Alexander was arrested by the Seminole Tribal Police and then turned over to the Broward County Sheriffs and taken to a local jail where he was awaiting bail on Saturday night. The rumor is, that he kicked him in the head. What an idiot!

    Well...I rewatched the fight and Alexander came into the ring embraced his brother and then went over to Miranda,who was still sitting on the floor...Alexander then said something to Miranda after that the kick must have happened,but you could only see his upperbody not his legs...I doubt seriously the kick went to the head and from the look of it was some petty kick in anger to Mirandas leg...lets not forget that Miranda had a long campaign of trash talk against Arthur and being a born Armenian they take this very seriously if family members are attacked that way and Alexander seems to me like a very emotional type of person...I don't say this to defend Alexanders cowardly kick against Miranda,but just to clearify the situation somewhat...

    I liken Miranda to a golf ball. If he hits you there is a good chance you'll wind up in the ER. If you hit him he goes flying weightlessly through the air and bounces into a hole he can't get out of.
