CARLOS BALDOMIR forrest will tko baldomir in 7...look for the right hand JUAN DIAZ VS. JULIO DIAZ diaz will win
Calzaghe UD Kessler- Close, but clear UD. Klitschko TKO4 McCline- Vitali dominates all the way Marquez KO9 Vasquez- A thrilling fight with Marquez taking it Taylor UD Pavlik- Pavlik stuns Taylor early, then he starts to fight... Chagaev UD Ibragimov- Chagaev outworks Ibragimov. Peter KO5 Maskaev- Peter easily beats Maskaev. Mayorga TKO8 Vargas- An absolute war but Vargas is shot and loses in the end. Mosley SD Cotto- Mosley sweeps the early rounds and holds on despite a late charge from Cotto, a controversial one though. Pacquiao UD Barrera- I can see Barrera lasting the distance this time, not making much of an impression though. Morales UD Diaz- Doesnt particularly impress, but EM gets the job done. Marquez UD Barrios- A fairly easy fight for JMM Forrest ??? Baldomir- I dont know really, and dont care enough to think about it. Juan Diaz UD Julio Diaz- Juan wins IMO.
JOE CALZAGHE VS. MIKKEL KESSLER- Calzaghe UD...Calzaghe swarms Mikkel until the final bell. UD. VITALI KLITSCHKO VS. JAMEEL McCLINE Vitali TKOs McCline sometime in the early-mid rounds RAUL MARQUEZ VS. ISRAEL VASQUEZ 2 Marquez stops Vasquez more quickly and decisively JERMAIN TAYLOR VS. KELLY PAVLIK Taylor seriously raises his game for this fight...and still loses by UD. RUSLAN CHAGAEV VS. SULTAN IBRAGIMOV No idea. SAM PETER VS. OLEG MASKAEV Peter KOs Big O in the middle rounds. FERNANDO VARGAS VS. RICARDO MAYORGA Vargas TKOs a shop-worn Mayorga in the late rounds. MIGUEL COTTO VS. SUGAR SHANE MOSLEY Mosley outfights Cotto, but only slightly. Re-match. MARCO ANTONIO BARRERA VS. MANNY PACQUIAO 2 No reason to do this again except due to Barerra's pride, which still isn't enough. ERIC MORALES VS. DAVID DIAZ Depends on Morales' legs, but I have hope -- Morales UD (but really I have no clue). JUAN MANUEL MARQUEZ VS. JORGE BARRIOS JMM outclasses Barrios who barely makes weight, and can barely stand come fight time. VERNON FORREST VS. CARLOS BALDOMIR Forrest should outwork Baldomir, but it won't be fun or exciting. UD. JUAN DIAZ VS. JULIO DIAZ Diaz is the obvious choice here....which Diaz? Oh I have no idea.
Wow I pretty much agree with the whole list. Save for JMM and how the SSM-Cotto fight pans out; JMM will win but in the same bloodbath as you mention. SSM-Cotto is a tossup for me. Lastly Ruslan Chagaev will win easily.

CARLOS BALDOMIR Forrest UD JUAN DIAZ VS. JULIO DIAZ Juan Diaz UD
JOE CALZAGHE VS. MIKKEL KESSLER Not sure really. I wanna see it tho. VITALI KLITSCHKO VS. JAMEEL McCLINE Vitali will take him out via TKO in either rounds 5-7. JERMAIN TAYLOR VS. KELLY PAVLIK Pavlik will TKO Taylor in 8 RUSLAN CHAGAEV VS. SULTAN IBRAGIMOV Chagaev. Defiantly. They didn't call him the white tyson in the amateurs for nothing. It will be close tho, both fighters are coming off wins over 2 big goofs. Chagaev UD or Late KO. SAM PETER VS. OLEG MASKAEV I want Maskaev to win for some reason....but I think Peter will take this in a UD. MIGUEL COTTO VS. SUGAR SHANE MOSLEY I think Cotto will have the upper hand, but Im not 100% sure on this one. Let me add one: DAVID HAYE VS. JEAN MARC MORMECK I want JMM to take this. But I dont really see that happening.... Haye via late TKO/MID TKO.
just added... FLOYD MAYWEATHER VS. RICKY HATTON mayweather pulls another onesided "baldomir"style pecking to death w12
VITALI KLITSCHKO VS. JAMEEL McCLINE vitali KO 6 RAUL MARQUEZ VS. ISRAEL VASQUEZ 2 marquez UD vasquez in a war JERMAIN TAYLOR VS. KELLY PAVLIK Taylor UD pavliks in another hold-on till the finish performance (god we need fifteen rounders back so this guy can stop making money against better fighters) RUSLAN CHAGAEV VS. SULTAN IBRAGIMOV Chagaev in one sided UD SAM PETER VS. OLEG MASKAEV peter will ktfo maskaev in round 4 (not going to change this one) FERNANDO VARGAS VS. RICARDO MAYORGA Mayorga retires frenando "my back hurts and I have nothing left to fight for" vargas MIGUEL COTTO VS. SUGAR SHANE MOSLEY Mosely by UD but first toney will get his crack at cotto so I'll make this a prediction for next year MARCO ANTONIO BARRERA VS. MANNY PACQUIAO 2 Barrera boxes his ass off to a razor thin UD ERIC MORALES VS. DAVID DIAZ Morales is retired 6th round KO JUAN MANUEL MARQUEZ VS. JORGE BARRIOS Marques out points him JUAN DIAZ VS. JULIO DIAZ Juan diaz by wide ud Calzaghe vs Kessler the welshmen by wide UD Hatton Mayweather Mayweather UD Hatton by two or three points on most cards.
I'll give my picks for the ones in which I've seen both guys fight: VITALI KLITSCHKO VS. JAMEEL McCLINE Vitali grinds McCline into a stoppage in about 6-8 rounds. RUSLAN CHAGAEV VS. SULTAN IBRAGIMOV Chagaev takes a close-but-clear-cut decision. SAM PETER VS. OLEG MASKAEV It looks competitive for a couple rounds, then Peter connects with something big. Maskaev crumbles and is stopped after a couple knockdowns. Peter TKO 3-6 FERNANDO VARGAS VS. RICARDO MAYORGA This depends a lot on who's farther gone at this stage in his career. I'm leaning towards Vargas, by some mechanism. MIGUEL COTTO VS. SUGAR SHANE MOSLEY Mosley puts up a tough fight and gives Cotto a scare or two, but Cotto's offense carries most of the rounds and gives him a close decision. MARCO ANTONIO BARRERA VS. MANNY PACQUIAO 2 I want to wait until closer to the fight to predict a result here, but at the present time I at least predict that it will not be a slaughter as bad as the first one. ERIC MORALES VS. DAVID DIAZ Actually haven't seen Diaz fight, but I bet at this stage he'll outpoint Morales. JUAN MANUEL MARQUEZ VS. JORGE BARRIOS Marquez by close decision. Agreed. Probably Juan by UD, though.
