    What you think about the following matchups?


    Sergio-Kirk
    Sergio-Williams2
    Kirk-Williams
    Kirk-Clottey
    Sergio-Clottey
    Sergio-Margarito2
    Kirk-Margarito
    Angulo-Williams
    Cotto-Clottey2
    Cotto-Margo2
    Williams-Quintana3
    Dzin-Williams
    Dzin-Kirk
    Dzin-Margo
    Margo-Williams2

    There are soooooooooo many possibilities, that I don't think even Bob Arum could **** it up.

    Bob Arum and GBP could **** up just about anything. They could **** up a kid's birthday party by getting gifts for the wrong gender.

    Hope so, but I really don't think Cotto's going to do much at 154. He's shot until proven otherwise.

    I dunno man. I think "shot" is a bit harsh. I honestly never really thought very highly of his capabilities in the first place. But even I can't debate his heart and will. I don't think he's shot. I just think he's limited and a little mechanical.

    Even if you are counting Miguel Cotto, his insistence on no more than 3 fights really doesn't make him much of a factor at 154.

    If he fights Foreman, then Williams, and then Margo2, that will be good enough to get the party started for the next couple of years.

    Sergio-Kirk - Kirkland is my boy but at this stage i have to think he is way way too open, and sergio too experienced to be too rattled by kirklands pressure (add to that sergios movement and speed) and i think he hurts kirkland early and often throughout the fight, close fight that sees kirkland winning rounds but getting stunned often, not sure if he makes the distance, if sergio doesnt get him out within 8 i think the later rounds could get very bad for him, good fight, ill favor sergio)

    Sergio-Williams2 (i dont know, probably same as first fight)

    Kirk-Williams (i think kirk will have early success and really hound williams, but williams takes over from around the middle rounds on... dont know on the outcome but im favoring williams)

    Kirk-Clottey (I think Kirk is too much, i think he will have clottey in his shell most of the fight, when clottey does open up its succesful but he doesnt do enough to win against the non stop punching machine and loses 9 rounds to 3)

    Sergio-Clottey (not even a close fight, Martinez's speed and movement keep him stacking up points and staying out of trouble, 9 rounds to 3 UD for Sergio)

    Sergio-Margarito2 (dont know because i dont know how margarito is going to look, i think pre cotto margarito would still be a nightmare for sergio, but if margarito is indeed softening, i think it would be just just enough where sergio could build a mountain out of a mole hill and win the fight, toss up)

    Kirk-Margarito (same, depends on margarito in this one, great matchup, if margarito has softened, i think it will be enough to where kirkland can have success and build on it throughout the fight, if not and mosley was just one of those nights against a great fighter, then i think kirkland is in for a grand battle... lol, im still gonna go with kirkland, as i think he will win the rounds, but get beat up throughout the fight, and i think he will look the worse of the two when its all done but have won the fight, 7 rounds to 5 in a slugfest)

    Angulo-Williams - Non competetive to me, Williams takes this through activity, range, ect.... 10 rounds to 2 Williams UD

    Cotto-Clottey2 - Dont know, id have to see how cotto is doing.... if its the same cotto, i see no reason he couldnt win a rematch without blood pouring into his eye, hindering his vision. Cotto is on the slide though IMO and it would be a tough fight for him, i think it looks much like the first fight due to clottey doing a bit more, but cotto being able to see the right hand more without having to wipe blood away from it constantly, 7 rounds to 5 Cotto.

    Cotto-Margo2 - At this stage i think it will look a lot like the first fight without as much early success from cotto (depending on how much they both have left of course) i hate to say that as a cotto fan but im just being real.... if this was RIGHT after the fight and was confident in cottos training, and that he would be back the same as ever, i would pick cotto SD, but he seems to retreat in the face of pressure even more now and i think that will see him lose the later rounds just like last time, so it will always be a close fight (cotto early, margarito late)

    Williams-Quintana3 - I think Williams outworks Quintana, stunning him throughout the fight but Quintana is able to last the distance, but who simply gets outworked and beaten up down the stretch

    Dzin-Williams - havnt seen enough of Dz
    Dzin-Kirk - xxxxx
    Dzin-Margo - xxxx
    Margo-Williams2 - same as 1st fight

    What is the rumor about Kirkland's weight? Did he get fat in jail or did he lose weight? Thanks

    I've heard people on this forum speculate that he has blown up. But until I see it myself, I don't belive it. That's why I said "internet rumors" which is, in my opinion, the lowest most unreliable form of specualtion.
