Does anyone else think Jermain Taylor might just upset Abraham?

[Nameless]

Small point, but the first fight with Miranda was a questionable victory. If it had been anywhere other than Germany, Miranda would have got the nod. Watch the fight again and tell me what you think. Not that Abraham didn't prove a ton by fighting through the fight with a broken jaw. And Pavlik was the one who knocked Miranda out first.

I thought Abraham won the first fight by 4 or 5 points, I've not heard anyone really say Miranda should have won before. Pavlik knocking him out first is besides the point, Abraham beat him first with a broken jaw. If we're going to start trying to give Pavlik credit for KOing him first then you could equally argue Abraham KO'd him quicker.

I'll rewatch it. Maybe you are right. I remember thinking at the time that Miranda got robbed.

I also think that Abraham won by a fair 4-5 points... and doing so bleeding like a pig with a broken jaw says a lot about the boxer. Taylor is very good, no doubts about it, but the thing is that he doesn't have neither the jaw or stamina to stand up against King Arthur, in my book at least, damn can't wait to see the next step of that tournament as so many answers will be answered.
