I really like Miranda for his heart and determination, and his personal backstory but honestly as world talent I'd put him behind Jeff Lacy.

HBO are hyping him up to be some kind of monster in the division but honestly he's just an average fighter, with loads of natural strength and a big heart.

He's kind of like an in shape Sam Peter, but whereas Peter fights in a division boasting less talent than a Newcastle brothel Miranda will have to compete against some of the top p4p fighters in the world.

In my opinion Taylor, Hopkins, Wright, Pavlick, Abraham, Calzaghe, Kessler, Andrade, Froch, Bute, Mundine, Dawson all beat him with several fighters having a chance to knock him out.

If he fights Pavlick next I'd fancy Pavlick to stop him inside the distance or if not give him a Calzaghe/Lacy style beatdown.

An entertaining fighter but not one of the world's best.
