MIRANDA vs GIBBS .........BAMM


I was looking forward HBO's final B.A.D. ( Boxing After Dark ) fight card Saturday Night. The main event was a pair of tough hard hitting what me worry about defense middleweights. Willie "The Gladiator" Gibbs (20-2, 16KOs) vs Edison "El Pantero" Miranda (27-1, 24KOs.) Both men looked in great physical shape. Gibbs a philly fighter who is somehow related to another great philly fighter Bernard Hopkins is a tough, gritty fighter. His only loss in an exciting fight against a vicious Daniel Edourd on ESPN2 Friday Night Fights a couple of years ago. Miranda came in also with only one loss and 23 kos. Miranda is the Colombian Kid abandoned by his mother and basically raised himself on the streets before finding boxing and then just about started knockin every one out. His only loss was a robbery in Germany this past September. Anyways after a couple of minute of feeling each other BINGOBAMMMO!!! Miranda clocks Gibbs with an overhand right to the TOP of the head. Willie was seeing tweety birds circle his head and that was all. One round , one devastating shot and it was over!. I'm teekling you this Colombian can hit and will be a force in the middleweight division. I would love to see him fight Jermain Taylor or Ronald Winky Wright.........oh yeah now you teekling

On the under card was a scheduled 10 rounder between Featherweights Jason "The American Boy" Litzau (20 - 1, 18KOs) vs Jose Andres Hernandez (22-3, 14KO's). Litzau was another ESPN2 Friday Night Fights Fave . This turned out be a pretty good fight and an upset. Both these guys also are tough full of heart hard hitting what me worry about defense fighters. Hernandez decked Litzao wit a hard right and took the first round. Over the next six round Hernandez sustained quite a beating but gave some back and showed a lotta guts hangin in there. Litzao took those rounds on the scorecards and didn't listen to his manager who told him to box. He came out and started banging with Hernandez in the 8th round. Hernandez caught him with a BIG overhand right and knocked him loopy & out!
