    I have Pryor winning against smarter, more skilled competition in Pacquiao and Napoles.

    De La Hoya maybe ekes out a decision against Donald Curry based on workrate. I could be swayed on this last one, and I wouldn't consider a counter view on the first two ridiculous.

    I would give Shavers a true punchers chance v Johnny B which I know will divide opinion on here.

    I'd take any of the top 10 around 80-82. Shavers would behead him. To be honest there ain't many light heavyweights i'd pick against him tho or any of that top 10 for that matter.

    Duran struggled with slick boxers. I see Alexander frustrating him to a decision.
