I'd agree with that for the most part, Abraham had him flustered during much of their fight with the counter punches. I think Taylor could take it, but he would definately be hurt by the end.
Got to disagree with you both...as much as I hate to.

I don't really dig on Miranda that much. Not to much a fan of his attitude or his lack of ring generalship...but he's a hard hitter with a pretty good amount of heart & confidence & that's something that I believe Taylor truly lacks.

Taylor has done well against smaller fighters but when pitted against Hopkins & Wright he buckled like a belt. Also...Ouma did quite fine pressing him backwards.

Miranda backing him up will be what ends Taylor. No way Taylor can take his power & Miranda has a decent chin. I think he'd work his way past Taylor's jab as everyone of merit lately has been able to do. Facing your sparring partners, smaller men, & contenders moving up in weight made Taylor look fantastic...but ever since he stepped up in competition...he's looked bad.

Miranda would blast him out & Taylor sure as stink offa shit wouldn't be able to back Miranda up.
