    Ward, Mayweather still undefeated and widely considered the 2 best in the world,
    Pacquiao retires in the fall,
    Andre Dirrell is still considered a wasted talent,
    Canelo and Mayweather will never fight(Ever),
    Donaire Rigondeaux will not happen,
    Marquez will look less than impressive in his next fight vs. a decent oponent he takes to a decision,
    24/7 will get some new blood(I'm hoping)!

    Some of these I genuinely believe, some of them are bold predictions which I think are much more likely to happen than your average person probably does.

    Pac exits even his biggest fanboys' P4P top 10 list.
    Mayweather remains undefeated.
    Ward fights above 168 pounds, if he fights twice in the calendar year.
    Beibut Shumenov fights a Ring ranked top 10 opponent.
    Roman Gonzalez loses if he faces an elite challenger at 108 or 112.
    Hopkins fights for the last time.
    Amir Khan gets KO'd again (unless he faces guys like Carlos Molina all year).
    Kirkland either doesn't fight, fights one or two tomato cans, or loses.
    Vitali Klitschko fights once more before retirement.
    Wladimir Klitschko goes 3-0.
    Joyi defeats Rodriguez in a rematch.
    One of Wilder or Fury will get KO'd.
    Rafael Marquez announces retirement before years' end but Juan does not.
    Japanese boxing continues to flourish, ending the year with more titlists than now.
    Oleydong Sithsamerchai does not fight a notable opponent.
    Gamaliel Diaz loses his WBC title.
    Lucas Matthysse loses if he goes up to 147 for a big fight.
    Keith Thurman doesn't lose, and looks impressive by most accounts.
    Brandon Rios loses.
    Yuriorkis Gamboa tastes canvas twice, possibly not getting up.
    Bradley fights only once.
    Pablo Cesar Cano loses against a top 10 JWW/WW.
    Viloria either moves up in weight or loses, resulting in Mthalane ending as #1 at 112.
    Omar Narvaez retires only once defeated.
    Adamek gets knocked out.
    Zab Judah gets stopped by Garcia, and if he fights another notable opponent, twice.
    Yoan Pablo Hernandez is not Ring champ, or is so by a consensus robbery.
    Wonjongkam fights a few more times against low level opposition.
    Arreola/Stiverne produces a great finish.
    Povetkin loses if he faces a Klitschko, stays undefeated if not.

    Donaire will Go undefeated again.

    Kessler will beat froch in England and pretty clearly.

    Manny, will fight Bradley again and beat him again but it will be much closer.

    JMM, stays retired.

    Wlad, destroys everybody he fights.

    Mayweather does nothing but take easy fights As usual like Guerrero.

    Sergio Martinez and Chavez jr fight again and Sergio beats the hell out of him, again this time he's doesn't go down though in the last round.

    against who? 50 does not have any pull. He is best to follow Arum for the foreseeable future. Gamboa will probably fight 2 times this year. Thats not winning him fighter of the year.

    He's free to fight anyone, unlike a lot of fighters. He could end up beating any combo of Uchiyama, Broner, Burns, Vazquez, and Rios by the end of the year.

    Seth Mitchell defeats Jonathon Banks. He fights stiffs for the rest of the year after that. If he makes the mistake of fighting a guy like Arreola or Charr, he gets embarrassed.

    Marquez Pacman V (Pacman TKO3) or JMM makes a mistake in fighting Rios or Garcia, loses
