Could Miranda have beaten Taylor on the night of Sept 29th., 2007?

[Put Em' Up]

Many people thought that Miranda would beat Pavlik and then move on to beat Taylor. I was one of them. (I know, I am on the Pavlik bandwagon now) so what

I still like Miranda, he is funny and he bounced back, although he has yet to avange his loss

What is the deal with Taylor and Miranda? Are they both moving up? Were they both chased out of the Middle Weight Division by Pavlik? Would any one like to see Taylor/Miranda at 168? And Could Miranda have beaten Taylor on the night of Sept 29th., 2007?

Miranda is actually still considered a MW, and him fighting Abraham again still confirms that to a degree.

I also thought Miranda would beat Pavlik. I still believe to this day that if Edison would learn to throw his punches a bit straighter and use something called "Defense" he could beat most the guys out there including Pavlik. (as much as I like Kelly I think if Taylor hurt him Miranda could KO him).

As far as your question I would have to say it is possible. We all knew Taylor was due for a fall. He looked like junk is his 2 or so previous fights up until that night and they were against smaller men.

This of course is not trying to take anything away from Pavlik, Kelly fought a great fight and is a deserved champion who I think will reign for a long time as long as he keeps doing what he is doing right now.

Just the night you are speaking of I think Taylor also would have lost to Abraham, Sturm and Wright if they were his opp
