    Incredible card. Had such a hard time thinking about my predictions but here are mine:

    BETERBIEV V BIVOL - BETERBIEV POINTS
    DUBOIS V PARKER - DUBOIS MID TO LATE KO
    ADAMES V SHEERAZ - SHEERAZ LATE KO
    ORTIZ JR V MADRIMOV - I have a bad feeling this one will get postponed or cancelled. But - if it goes through - MADRIMOV LATE TKO
    STEVENSON V SCHOFELD - STEVENSON POINTS
    BUATSI V SMITH - BUATSI POINTS
    ZHANG V KABAYEL - KABAYEL POINTS, could see Kabayel knocking Zhang out late, I think Zhang could get really gassed out unless he gets an early KO

    Any early predictions?

    I thought people would be backing Buatsi more against Smith. Still a great match up though.

    Beterbiev vs Bivol - no idea

    Dubois vs Parker - lean towards Dubois but it could go either way

    Sheeraz vs Adames - Sheeraz

    Madrimov vs Ortiz - another tough one which could go either way. Have to see how Madrimov looks vs Bohachuk first, providing he gets by him

    Stevenson vs Austin - don't think I've seen Austin before. Stevenson

    Smith vs Buatsi - I think Smith but the demoralizing TKO loss to Beterbiev might have taken a fair bit out of him. I think the pre Beterbiev version of Smith stops him and if he's still the same I fancy him to do so

    Big Bang vs Kabayel - could go either way but I think I lean towards Kabayel. But it's hard to be confident in victory when the other guy is a 20st man mountain with the power to spark out a elephant with a single blow at any stage of the fight

    Beterbiev v Bivol - I think it will be close again and Bivol will get the decision this time I think age might catch up to Arthur after another tough camp.

    Dubois v Parker - at first I was leaning towards Parker by decision and I hope the Kiwi wins but I think Dubois has been underestimated a lot going into recent fights he is young on a hot streak and only getting better I think he might stop Parker.

    Sheeraz will beat Adames

    Madrimov Ortiz - I don't think this fight will happen because of the Bohanchuk fight even if Madrimov beats Bohanchuk I don't think he should be gong into back to back 12 round wars in such a small space of time as both Bohanchuk and Ortiz are warriors. You would have to respect Madirmov big time going from Crawford to Bohanchuk to Ortiz that is very impressive. If the fight does happen I could see Ortiz winning due to Madrimov's schedule I compare it to Kovalev having a war with Yarde and going straight into a fight with Canelo.

    Shakur will likely win a boring safety first decision against the Austin kid

    Smith v Buatsi - In his prime Smith was the better fighter and I hope he wins but I don't think he will he usually loses on the big stage and I don't think he is the same after the Beterbiev fight so I am picking Buatsi.

    Zhang Kabayel - I am going with Kabayel by decision I think he is good enough and too quick for Zhang who is only getting older and slower but with that power you can never count him out.
