Miranda (35-6, 30 KOs) is responding to pre-fight interviews with South Africa’s WBC #6, WBA #13, and WBO #14-rated Isaac “Golden Boy” Chilemba, whom he will face in the 10-round light heavyweight main event of this Friday’s (February 3) ESPN Friday Night Fights broadcast from the Dallas Events Center at the Texas Station Gambling Hall & Hotel in Las Vegas.

“It’s one thing to study video, but then that leather hits your face and your plan goes out the window and survival mode kicks in. Before you know it, you get hit again and you’re lying on the canvas. What happened to your game plan?”

Presented by Warriors Boxing and Sampson Boxing, “Superbrawls” will also feature a fantastic eight-round co-main event between 21-year-old lightweight Hylon Williams Jr. (15-0, 3 KOs) and 25-year-old Cuban power-punching sensation Rances “Kid Blast” Barthelemy (14-0, 11 KOs), plus fast-rising heavyweight sensation Magomed Abdusalamov (12-0, 12 KOs) of Moscow, Russia, taking on Cuba’s Pedro Rodriguez (8-0, 6 KOs).

Miranda, who is coming off an impressive KO of world-rated Kariz Kariuki in Atlantic City last December says Friday will be a matter of bad timing for Chilemba.

“I have been with my trainer Noni ‘Chico’ Carbajal for two years and he is a great trainer. I have never been so dedicated and hungry as I am now. We had the perfect training camp and I am ready to make an example of Isaac Chilemba. If he could feel what I am feeling, he would run away like (original opponent Yordanis) Despaigne did. Everyone thinks they have me figured out before they fight me, but Isaac, I promise you are going to have a long flight back to Africa. You said you were not going to leave the fight in the judges’ hands – you won’t have to since the fight will be in my hands. You are facing me at the wrong time in my career. I have knocked out so many of my opponents. When I walk into that ring Friday night, I have every intention of adding you to the list.”

Greg Cohen of Greg Cohen Promotions wishes to congratulate his fighter, super middleweight contender “Mean” Joe Greene (23-1, 15 KOs), for his KO 8 over Jackson, Tennessee’s Nathan Bedwell at the Frank Cochran Center in Meridian, Mississippi, on Saturday night.

The quick victory was Greene’s second since his comeback began in October. He took more than a year off after suffering his only profession loss in June 2010, via decision against Vanes Martirosyan.

“Joe looked sharp again tonight,” said Cohen. “He wanted to get in a few rounds and keep himself at the top of his game and that’s what he did.”

Cohen says the 25-year-old southpaw is all the way back and will now be in search of a big fight.

“By the way he looked in there tonight, it’s obvious Joe is ready for the top contenders and champions in the super middleweight division. He was using tonight as a yard stick and by the look of his opponent, he’s all set to face anyone. Joe Greene is ready to take on the world again.
