Arthur Abraham knocked out Edison Miranda in the fourth round of a tough fight tonight in Florida, winning his first fight on American soil and impressing American boxing fans the way he's impressed German fans for years.

Abraham said afterward that he'd like to fight either Oscar De La Hoya or Kelly Pavlik next; either one would be a huge fight both here and in Europe.

Tonight's fight was a rematch of their 2006 brawl, which Abraham won by unanimous decision. That fight was notable for Miranda getting an incredible five points deducted for fouls. This time Miranda hit Abraham with a low blow in the second round, but it was a cleaner fight, and a more dominant performance for Abraham. He's the real deal, one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world.

Abraham improves to 27-0. Miranda drops to 30-3.
