**** Kirk's Championship Boxing Prediction League 2016 ****

I always envisage matches from every angle and I fall in love with the scenario in which the underdog can win, like Obara's excellent straight right landing perfectly and KOing Troya, it happened but Obara didn't follow up. My scenario's usually come close to playing out, but not quite. Enzo outboxed Kucher until he got KO'd, Sillakh dropped Vlasov 2 or 3 times, but got stopped, Ortiz looked great and dropped Berto until he got KO'd, so the limbs I go out on are brittle, but there's usually always a healthy leaf or two to be found.

Same goes for Commey, if he can get on the inside and work Easter's body for prolonged amounts of time, he can win by late stoppage, but dat reach doe...... So Easter will probably sharpshoot until he gets a late stoppage.

I really going back and forth on this one.

Yeah, I think Haskins is very beatable and while he has improved since their first meeting, Hall has too, its annoying the hell out of me.

No, not at all, he couldn't KO Mike Dallas who was destroyed by Matthysse, and debatably got a gift in that match, and he was dropped by Dallas, which is worrisome. Another sign of his lack of power is his 5th round stoppage of Carlos Winston Velasquez, who was also KO'd in 5 by Lundy and Granados, neither of whom are known as KO artists. Dusty will be taking on a full fledged MW, and Lamanna did fairly well against Douglas up until the stoppage, and even then the stoppage wasn't that bad. For all Antoine's shortcomings, power isn't one of them. I think Lamanna is both a better boxer and maybe a bigger puncher, with a natural huge size advantage over Dusty.

I think I'm sticking with Lamanna here, that being said if I switch, do you want me to switch your pick too, because I don't want to pull a fast one on you while you might be sleeping.
