    I'll put it to you this way, Kessler beating Miranda is nothing. Miranda is just a name at super middleweight who hasn't proven anything there yet except that he hits hard, which was already known.

    Why doesnt Miranda fight Pascal or fight Mundine? Why is nobody calling out Anthony Mundine's name? If Miranda wants a title or some recognition why doesn't he call out Anthony Mundine's name?
    Kessler is much more well known than Mundine, thus there is more money and exposure in a fight with him. Like JTRock said, Mundine is fighting Soliman anyways, and Miranda was probably trying to get a fight with Kessler done when Mundine was trying to choose an opponent. A guy who got KO'd by Sven fucking Ottke is not going to want to fight a punishing hitter like Miranda anyways. Miranda is better known than Mundine or Bute, so for Kessler it would make sense from a monetary perspective, as well drum up more publicity for both fighters if they fought eachother. If Miranda is just a name at SMW, who in that division has a bigger name, so to speak? Not Mundine, not Bute. Maybe someone like Bika, but only because of the Contender, and even then I doubt he is more popular the Miranda.

    In regards to Pascal, he has become incredibly quiet ever since he watched Miranda destroy Banks from about 10 feet away, Miranda can't force him to fight. Before the Banks KO, Pascal was calling out Miranda and talking shit about him in every medium possible, now he doesn't say a word.

    Also, Arther Abraham, for all his faults, was also a very dangerous opponent for Miranda.

    If a fight ever comes off between Miranda and Kessler once Kessler beats him badly I'll come back here and tell you I told you so.

    People overrate punchers beyond no end and its like you forget everything Kessler did before beating Calzaghe.

    When you fans say that he should go for the biggest name to start off it sounds like you're hoping he lands one big shot and gains instant fame as oppose to fighting the people I mention because you're afraid he'll get beaten.
    I want to address the edit you threw into your post after I already responded.

    I have repeatedly stated throughout this thread and others that I think Kessler would handle Miranda fairly easily, more easily than Pavlik in fact. So I don't know what your juvinile "I'll come back and say I told you so" comment is referring to. I also gave, and give, Kessler a ton of credit for his fight with Calzaghe, I'm a Kessler fan and I was cheering for him against JC (though I became a fan of Calzaghe because of that fight). So what, exactly, did I forget about that fight?

    When did I say anything that could constitute overrating a puncher? The only thing I can think of is when I said it looks like Pascal is afraid of Miranda. Well, it looks like, following the brutal KO of Banks, Pascal became very quiet in regards to Miranda, a subject he was quite vocal about leading up to their ESPN card, which was supposed to set-up a fight between them. Also, Winky Wright is one of my favorite fighters, so I'm hardly one of those boxing fans who only likes big punchers.

    Why would I be "afraid [Miranda] will get beaten"? I'm a boxing fan, I like to watch good fights, and in boxing there is almost always a loser.

    I thought someone who worked in a library would be able to read a little better.

    Um I didnt edit my post And my response wasn't exclusive to you it was to most people thinking that Miranda could handle Kessler easily And Pascal didn't get quiet or was that his evil twin sitting at ringside watching the knockout then doing the throat slice then going up in Miranda's face again after he KO'd banks?

    Didn't edit your post? What does this mean then:

    Pascal acted like a scared child after Miranda almost decapitated Banks. He even acted like people were trying to hold him back. Real fucking tough. He may have made the throat slashing gesture, but he didn't get into Miranda's face, he just yelled at Miranda from ringside while Edison was in the ring. He hasn't said a word since, that to me proves he's scared shitless of Miranda. As he should be.
