The biggest welterweight showdown of May is almost upon us. The Special One vs Funtime Frankie for the IBF welterweight title, pound for pound number 1 and title of the best fighter since Joe Calzaghe is up for grabs. What are your final predictions for this mega bout? :think
I've got The Special One to win on points. Gavin is a good fighter and will win more rounds than Porter did (two) but he will be comfortably outpointed and The Special One will retain the IBF title and pound for pound number 1 spot and leave little doubt that he is the greatest fighter since Joe Calzaghe retired :happy:happy:happy [YT]ItrGb5bG5vI[/YT]
Funtime will make it awkward for Kell. Kell's been very good against southpaws so far but Frankie is a tricky fighter and I think he'll get off to a good start. There'll be a lot of Americans who've never seen Frankie fight screaming about Kell getting exposed after this fight. I expect it to be in the realm of 8-4.
Gavin may well make it competitive and I wouldn't be surprised if it goes the distance, but I fancy Brook to stop him sometime in the second half.
I see the ref stepping in to save a hurt but stubborn Gavin in the 9th or 10th. Gavin will start quick and well but by the 4th Brook has took full control.
Gavin will give Brook alot of Problems but in the championship rds hes going to catch up and stop Gavin , i hope im wrong though
Total mismatch. Phuck Hearn for putting this on PPV. Its going to bomb badly. There's no hype for it all. Worst PPV card ever. Worse than Haye vs Audley. At least that fight tapped into the casual market.
atschThis is a far better card than Mayweather-Pacquiao. Linares-Mitchell is very interesting, Selby-Gradovich is potentially very good match, Brook-Gavin won't be boring, and even AJ-Kingpin may be interesting to see how legit Joshua's power really is. You're really off on this one, but that's to be expected with you isn't it.
