    While I'm not really fussed who wins, I think Maidana-Lopez will be a FOTY candidate.

    You're right, I forgot. That one definitely should have been in the poll.

    Maidana-Lopez

    Big fan of Maidana hoping he can make some waves and get in with the big names in the Welterweight division.

    Broner-Malignaggi is probably the fight on that list that means the most to boxing if you know what I mean. It's the most important.

    Lopez-Maidana should be fun as should Golovkin-Macklin.

    Macklin is at least warrior who will do his absolute best to win and GGG won't have an easy fight.

    GGG v Macklin, Dawson v Stevenson, Maidana v Lopez

    The middleweight fight should be the most competitive.

    Golovkin/Macklin, closely followed by Broner/Malinaggi.


    A lot more will be known about Golovkin and Broner's true potential after those fights. First truly tough test for both.

    Lara-Angulo, just because I am a Lara fan. I expect the fight to be a bit of a mismatch. Lara is way better than Angulo.

    Tie between Golovkin/Macklin and Maidana/Lopez. I think Maidana/Lopez will be the better fight though. I expect Macklin to get run over in less than 8 rounds, followed by everyone who was saying he'd really test Golovkin/that Golovkin sucks suddenly backpedaling to **** on Macklin and say it was a mismatch from the start.

    Picked Maidana vs. Lopez but Broner vs. Malignaggi is a close second for me.

    Paulie-Broner. Broner is like a 8/1 fav which is crazy considering he is jumping 2 weight classes. It will be interesting to see. I still think he wins but 8/1 seem ridiculous.

    Also Lara-Angulo just to see a schooling.
