    no one is stupid on here. Boxing is hard to predict. Many people go with the favorite on all fights, and really that is the way someone will make money. Going with the underdog is always a risk.

    Props for owning up. man. Broner was actually better defensively than I thought

    I knew Garcia would beat Broner, but I thought Broner would have won a few rounds. Good for someone to admitt they were wrong. SOB should admit he lost the fight with Kovalev and should admit he landed illegal blows.

    Golovkin should knock El Pollo out, but Oscar will own the judges, referee, boxing commission Bob Bennett the liar, etc., still........even with all that against him, Golovkin has the skills and power to knock El Pollo out...............I expect him to. Don't know how Golovkin can win a decision with Oscar's judges though..........................Golovkin has to go for the knockout. Hope he knows it..................

    I didnt expect Mikey to close so strong. No matter what, i was sure that Broner would finish strong.
    Took me by surprise.

    Everyone gets it wrong sometimes, even so called experts. If we could get it right every time we'd quit our jobs and just gamble on fights and live like kings lol.

    I usually get it wrong when I allow how I feel about the fighters involved to impair my judgement like with Fury/Wlad. I knew Fury would give him problems with his size and reach but thought Wlad's power would come through, so I basically gave the guy with only a punchers chance the nod because of how much I wanted to see Fury getting KO'ed, so clearly biased and stupid from me there.

    Mikey is a beast. And he didn't even fight his fight against Broner. I'm curious on how Loma/Mikey will go down. Will Loma use intelligent movement pressure to walk Mikey down or will he try and box on the outside even though he has the length disadvantage?

    Hopefully that's the last time Another Bum gets a high profile fight.... But whatever reason there are a ton of people who love him, so he'll probably get a couple of more unconvincing decisions and outright gifts against mediocre fighters before being trotted back out.

    Why would you hope that? AB brings numbers. Anyone who fights AB gets more recognition. If I was a loma/crawford fan I'd be very desperate for this fight after Broner racks up a few more wins.

    Why do you fawn all over numbers, - PPV buys, views etc? I could give a jack **** about numbers if the fights suck. Mayweather/McGregor will probably smash the PPV record and it's a complete joke... Herrera/Soto-Karass was a serious candidate for FOTY and almost no one saw it, Golovkin/Jacobs was one of the best cards of the year and it won't even finish in the top 3 as far as PPV buys/view go before the years end.
