Yesterday Arthur Abraham weighed 166lbs and Edison Miranda weighed 165. The rematch is today people. It is going to be fireworks as was their first fight. I have watched the highly controversial Abraham-Miranda I fight and there is so much you see. You see that referee Randy Neumann needed a coach because he was way off in this fight. You see that Arthur Abraham is one of the toughest fighters you will ever see. You see that Edison Miranda has some heat in his fists. However that fight was about 2 years ago and the rematch is today. Abraham has remained undefeated and has shown some real power in his wins. Miranda has lost again, by KO to Kelly Pavlik, but has bounced back against journeyman opponents at Super Middleweight. The rematch tonight is at a catchweight of 166. Will this benefit Miranda who has claimed he has struggled to make the 160 weight limit in the past? Abraham looks to be in great shape but will the weight gain affect him? Because of the controversy of the first fight many questions remain tonight. The trash talking has never stopped since before the first fight. That has truly helped the buildup to this rematch. However when in the ring, trash talk does not matter. Who is the better fighter? Can Miranda throw straighter punches instead of those wide punches he threw in the first fight? Will Abraham guard his jaw more to avoid it getting broken again? Will Abraham perform well in the United States? Will Miranda bring it like he talks it? Oh this fight has so many questions that only the fighters can answer this evening. No excuses, because we have heard all the talking. Personally I think Arthur Abraham may be able to pull out the victory. His punches seems to be straighter and very powerful. However I cannot deny the shocking power Edison Miranda has. Really I just can't wait to see these guys fight. Don't miss it on Showtime tonight at 9pm EST.
