Best or proudest boxing prediction you ever made

I've had a good yr

Rigo over Donaire

Thompson over Price

Alvarado over Rios

Stevenson over Dawson

 

Trout over Cotto for recent ones. Martinez over Pavlik surprised me the most, but made me the proudest.

 

rigo donaire and marquez pacquiao 4... figured the latter would end before the 9th

I'm pretty good at calling rounds of stoppage.

This calendar year, I have been noticeably shitty at predicting the major American televised fight. Still spot on with Asian fights, etc.

Kovalev TKO3 this weekend was an easy one. Called Mayweather vs. Guerrero being 117-111 on all 3 cards.

 

mosley over marg

 

Toney to dominate Holyfield is one of my favorite picks.

 

I have a few

Lennox Lewis over Razor Ruddock
Paulie Ayala over Johnny Tapia
Ike Ibeabuchi over David Tua
Tony Margarito over Miguel Cotto

Back in the mid nineties we were on the old prodigy network We each had to pick 3 fighters for future stardom My choices were Lennox Lewis , Paulie Ayala & Ike Ibeabuchi. Two won world titles the other would have if he hadn't called that hooker in Vegas

 

Litzau over Caba

 

spinks over ali. 'hated to be right there, though

 

The best one was Pac-Barrera 1.

Spinks-Mayorga be majority decision is the other.

 

I was right on Hopkins beating Trinadad, Wright, Tarver, De La Hoya and Pavlik and Cloud. I also picked him to beat Pascal in both fights (I know the 1st one was a draw but should've been a win), I also picked him to lose to Calzaghe and Dawson.

For the record with my track record of Hopkins picks- I say he beats Stevenson, Cleverly, Shemenov and Kolavev and loses to Froch depending on what fight next materializes for him.

 

^^Good call on Hopkins. That was one of my big time picks back in the day. I just had no idea he'd dominate Tito the way he did and end up knocking him out in the last round (I expected a UD for B-Hop in that fight.)

Much more recently, I had Rigo beating Donaire in a UD.

 

How about a future fight? Tim will beat JMM and make him look his age.

 

I had Donaire by wide decision on that one because I thought he'd pull a Navarez once he got tagged and get on his bike.

Hopkins is a trap these young bucks really get lured into. His fundamentals are too sound. I would bet within 3 rounds Stevenson right hand goes from being a home run power shot to a rib protecting guard. Then class will be in for him too
