    I'm guilty of that, too.

    I could try to weasel out and chalk it up to rooting for the home town guy and always giving southpaws some extra credit, but the fact of the matter is I just straight up whiffed the pick.

    Think my 2 worst were De La Hoya to beat up Pacman and Pavlik to beat BHop.

    Given how close the odds were , it’s mad to think how that fight panned out.

    One of the posts here reminded me I need to add Pavlik vs Hopkins to my list. Felt rather confident that Pavlik would simply be too active and too youthful.

    I bet $50 on Kingsley Ikeke to beat Arthur Abraham. It’s the last time I ever bet on a fight where I hadn’t seen one of the fighters before (Abraham). Idiot.

    This was heard frequently before the fight. It's a forgotten piece of history.

    Allan Green was missing one main component, a heart. He knew he was not going to win that fight before he walked in the ring. He was scared to death.

    Wilder-Fury
    Bute-Froch
    Lee-Chavez

    These are the ones that really stick in my memory, I made more bad predictions but these are the worst ones.
