    check out the thread titled "Re: Kermit the Frog leaping from his potential nemesis, THE PUNISHER..." to see that it wasnt just one person thiking carlos would have a 50/50. there were lots of people outright predicting a quintana win instead of playing it safe with some '50/50' bs.

    Im a decent anaylst I suppose. I try to look really deep into the fights when I predict them instead of saying something dumb like Floyd beats Tito cause Tito couldnt deal with boxers. Thats making it sound like theres only 1 style of boxing out there which pisses me off.

    IMO, the thing with a lot of us is that we are REALLY knowledgeable about a few divisions, almost top to bottom, and not so much with a lot of the others. With me I follow most closely 147-175 with passion. But not so much the little guys and sometimes the Cruisers and HW's. Most of us on here are only picking the Big/Popular fights, where as there are a couple of us, Huki would be a good example, that seem to know all the fighters really well from all the damn divisions. Well atleast he's ruling the ESB Champ prediction league.

    Your not referring to me I hope....I made a post right afterward saying I scored the fight for Joe and gave the man tremendous respect.

    WTF are you talking about???

    The only ones who I was aware that picked Quintana before the fight were the Boriquas and it had nothing to do with styles or experience but of National pride, but then after the fight you get a whole swarm of these "Analysts" saying they always knew it would happen.

    Samething with Nate Campbell and Juan Diaz, I was one of the rare Campbell fans on these boards and even I couldnt pick him against Baby Bull, but yet these "Analysts" come out of no where and pull a Manny Steward.

    Me and C Money picked Quintana, this is documented on the site. Called the Williams hype job months prior, which was extended from the Margarito hype job, which is now alive again sadly.

    But it's all irrelevant, as PacDbest picked Donaire to beat Darchinyan.
