let miranda get a win or two in mfc
or better yet have him jump ship to sf to pad that division a bit

I don't see Miranda beating any top Strikeforce middleweights either
His beating of Loiseau will live in my heart forever though

i feel like theres plenty of interesting fights for him there
he could potentially beat lawler or manhoef if he gets them down
he certainly wont win against jacare, mayham, or tim kennedy but that doesnt mean he cant act as a solid main card test for a challengers guy like luke rockhold

Further proof that there is room for more than 1 big organization
No way logistically to house more than 210-280 fighters over 7 weight classes in the UFC.
If the SPORT is truly going to grow, guys are going to need places to ply the trade and earn a living wage. Hopefully Showtime or ESPN get into the business.

I think Miranda is decent
But he had to go. Definitely loved the Loiseau fight and I’m a huge fan of The Crow.

It was horrible boring and sad
David just gave up and Miranda won by David covering up from his weak punches. So what is it to love about a fight were the one fighter does nothing and is mentally not there

was expecting this
he had to go

I don't see how back to back losses to Maia and Simpson are that bad
Especially in your second weakest division. But ok.

His one victory in the UFC showed nothing of him being any where near the top of the division
a second round “tko” over a mentally broken David Loiseau that did nothing in that fight but covering up

Miranda still has potential as long as he gets a couple wins outside of the UFC. He just wasn’t ready for the big league yet. Granted, seeing who he lost to in the UFC, he fought some very tough competition.
