Abraham headed to Miami!

[SigmaMu]

YES! About time this rematch is made.

Should be a good scrap and I am going to have to go with Miranda on this one. Their first scarp was just nasty on many fronts. I hope things don't get out of hand again. I would love to hear.....

AND NEW!



No one can talk shiet about AA not wanting to leave Europe anymore. I have to give the Europeans some credit for starting to come over more often.

[CFH]

I think Abraham wins by stoppage.

As far as I know this isn't a title fight...so even if Miranda wins AA won't loose his title...I think its because of the catchweight...

I think Abraham wins by stoppage.

Me too...

Ok when I was checking BoxRec, I thought it was a catch weight too but it is listed as a title fight.

WTF!?

I think Edison is coming back down to 160 :

I heard originally that it was at a catchweight of 166... Would be very shocked to hear it was at 160 for the belt, didn't think Miranda felt strong at the weight anymore... Maybe it was just an excuse after he lost to Pavlik?

This is also from fightnews:

Q&A: Arthur Abraham!

The weight limit will be 166 pounds which means you do not have to watch your weight that carefully this time out. Is that good for you?
"Definitely. I feel even stronger. Making weight can be a real torture but I do not have to do it this time.”

Win or loose abraham is getting some respect here. Taking on miranda right now for his first fight for the U.S. fans i don't think is a great idea. I think miranda has dreamed about this re-match since the first night after the loss. Abraham is not playing it safe that for sure.

It is not a title fight. Edison is at SMW now with no intention of going back to MW. I'd like to know the politics behind how this match was made. Either Abraham has a ton of guts and feels he has something to prove (I hear the homecooking in Germany is fantastic), by not only rematching Miranda, but doing it outside of his normal weight and in Miranda's backyard or some major green was laid down.

Showtime is going to rebroadcast the first fight before the rematch. I forget when exactly.

Oh thats right, seems to be the new glamour catchweight!

[Pantera]

The fight is at 166lbs and not for the title.
Abraham can lose the fight and still go back to Germany with his belt and defend it against hand picked opponents. That is one of the main reasons he is taking this fight. A win makes him known in the USA and setup a possible fight with Pavlik. A loss is not going to hurt him to bad.
