Miranda & Abraham: Coming to America

Edison Pantera Miranda (30-2, 26 Ko's) will meet IBF middleweight champ King Arthur Abraham(26-0, 21 Ko's) at a catch weight of 166 lbs in a highly-anticipated rematch slated for June 21.  

The first time these two met, Abraham won a fairly close unanimous decision despite his jaw being broken in two places halfway into the controversial fight.  
From the random video clips on you tube and the comments from the European contingent in the boxing forums, we have heard that this is one worth watching.  However, the fight took place in Abraham's backyard (Germany) and was not broadcasted to us yankees. Until now.

In the days leading up to the rematch, Showtime will air Miranda vs. Abraham I for our viewing pleasure.  The dates and times are as follows:

June 16th on SHO 2 - 10:00 pm (EST)
June 19th on SHO 2 - 10:00 pm (EST)
June 21st on Showtime - 6:00 pm (EST)
