Timeline

1981

Edison Miranda (born January 7, 1981) is a Colombian former professional boxer who competed from 2001 to 2021.

He challenged once each for the IBF middleweight and super middleweight world titles, and was considered to be one of the most Dangerous contenders at middleweight due to his exceptionally high knockout-to-win percentage.

Miranda was born in 1981 in Buenaventura, Colombia and was abandoned by his mother when he was one month old.

At age 9, a precocious Miranda began a quest to locate his mother.

He hitched rides on truck beds over the course of hundreds of miles and was able to find his uncle working at a construction site.

His uncle informed him that if he was really the little boy his sister gave away, then he should have a birthmark on his leg whereas Miranda unveiled the 2-inch long circular proof.

The man led him to his mother's new home, only to be abandoned again by his mother.

By the time he was 12, he was working in the plantain fields.

The next year, he had a full-time construction job.

By the time he was 14, he was working as a cattle butcher.

At age 15, Miranda took up boxing, training for a half-year before starting his amateur career.

Miranda won 128 out of 132 fights, winning four Colombian national titles.

2000

Miranda won a bronze medal in the 2000 Olympic Trials in Argentina, but failed to qualify for the 2000 Colombian Olympic team.

132 fights later, Miranda became a professional boxer, but his journey was only halfway over.

2002

March 2002 saw Miranda's arrival in the Dominican Republic.

Having been promised a shot at going to the United States to fight the top middleweight fighters in the world, Miranda continued with what he's best at – fighting – both in and out of the ring.

2004

Struggling to make ends meet, left homeless and hungry by an unfair contract, Miranda left the Dominican Republic and returned to Barranquilla on December 24, 2004.

2005

With the support of friends, he fulfilled his dream of making it as a boxer in the United States when he signed with Warrior's Boxing Promotions and then had his first American fight in Hollywood, Florida on May 20, 2005.

In that fight, Miranda defeated Sam Reese by unanimous decision.

2006

Miranda fought Howard Eastman on March 24, 2006, at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida.

Miranda got off to a slow start but showed his tremendous power when consecutive right hands hurt Eastman in the fifth round.

The experienced Eastman survived the round and came back strong by hurting Miranda in the next round.

Miranda kept throwing his right hand, and in the seventh, he had Eastman hurt badly with a clean right cross to the jaw, followed by a left uppercut and then a vicious right uppercut that nailed Eastman under the chin.

The referee stopped the fight, making Miranda the first man to stop Eastman.

The victory made Miranda the mandatory challenger for IBF Middleweight Champion Arthur Abraham.

Miranda fought Abraham on September 23, 2006 in Wetzlar, Germany.

The fight was not without controversy.

After three competitive rounds, Miranda broke Abraham's jaw with a right hand in round four.

In round five, Miranda head-butted Abraham on the right side of his face.

Abraham was seen turning away hurt with his mouth agape.

Referee Randy Neumann stopped the fight and during the five-minute break, the doctor recommended to stop the fight to what he saw as a broken jaw from a legal punch.

The referee decided to continue the fight and deducted two points from Miranda.

Abraham fought the remainder of the fight with a visibly broken jaw that was grossly swollen at the end of the fight.

In the seventh round, Miranda was docked two more points for low blows.

Then in the eleventh round, Miranda landed another low blow and the referee took another point from him.

Miranda lost the fight by unanimous decision.

He would have lost even without the deduction of any points (although by MD only).

On December 16, 2006, Miranda fought Willie Gibbs in Miami, Florida.

Miranda landed a strong right hand that badly hurt Gibbs, causing him to stagger back into the ropes.

Miranda then unloaded a volley of punches, concluding with a right hand followed by a left hook that connected flush on Gibbs' chin, sending him down and out in the first round.
