Very fair.
His trainer Jose Bonilla said the very two things he is working hard with Miranda during training is working on the jab and keeping the left hand up for better defense (also working on shoulder work to help the defense).
I think today he would KO Taylor, but to beat Winky he needs some polishing (and let Winky get a year or two older!)
Can't
ya for another 24 for...but the love's there.
That being said...the 1 round knockout of Gibb's was nice...but I'm just not sure what it accomplished in the grand scheme's of improving Miranda. Honestly...I was more impressed with the Abraham performance.
Anywho...totally agree with you on him KOing Taylor.
Wright? I just don't see the possibilities like others do. Wright's a lot smarter than most people give him credit for being. He tasted Mosley, Quartey, & Taylor's power & then & only then did he trade with them. He aint stupid enough to stand there & let Miranda crack him. He did the very same thing against Trinidad.
In that fight, Wright didn't like what he felt...so he didn't trade...he master classed Tito...& I think in the end...he'd use the very "peek-a-boo" plan on Miranda that I have grown to love...yep...the very one that everyone hates Wright for.
Never beg a 40 dollar hooker...specially after she's just turned down your mom's credit card!!
