Very good point. I just think Ward can avoid the Miranda bomb … but that’s what is the appeal of this fight as J. Boylan stated earlier. Should be a decent scrap. I just do not see a distance fight.

It will come down to Ward’s recouperative powers should Miranda land and drop him. Miranda is an animal of a finisher.
If Ward can survive and his defense is 100% he might win should Miranda start to “run out of gas” in the later rounds.
Can Ward handle a “war”. Miranda’s been there.
Ward should win, but it won’t be easy.

Joe, I think Ward will … speed, speed, speed … Miranda has a puncher’s chance…and you know that typically means he (Miranda) should lose.

I think the most important and realistic question would be can Ward get Miranda’s respect to even be able to outbox him. That being Jalil has often said speed makes a fear of men and that is the one attribute that should favor the young Andre Ward.

This is your classic chin-check matchup Joe B. Does Ward get his chin-checked and does he have enough firepower to check Miranda’s? ha, ha
