    I picked Garcia over Khan, but I screwed up by picking Hatton over Senchenko as well.

    I had;

    Hatton over Tszyu
    Calzaghe beating Lacy
    Froch stopping Bute
    Maidana beating Broner

    I remember I had a 4-fight accumulator on the same night;

    Kevin Mitchell to beat Johannsen
    Haye to KO Enzo Mac
    Nate Campbell to bean Juan Diaz and ...
    Maskaev to beat Peter.

    I had another accumulator recently where the last result I needed was Malignaggi to beat Broner.

    I've had good and bad luck with the Marquez brothers;

    I had a double on Rafa to KO Izzy in their first fight and JMM to beat MAB. I also had a double on Rafa to win the 3rd Vasquez fight on points and JMM to beat Pac on points in their 2nd fight (I still think I got both right).

    Of all the bad ones, having Lyakhovic to beat Valuev stands out. He didn't even win one round.

    The amount of people in this thread who're lying through their teeth about their "predictions" is ridiculous.

    Pac/Marquez 4. I had Marquez over Pac by KO in the 8th round. I just had a sneaking suspision that Marquez would get him out of there, largely based on the 3rd fight, when Marquez was able to tag Pac with the right hand repeatedly.
