2008 is "The Year of the Upset" Whos is next???

Jones will beat Calzaghe

 

Pavlik getting destroyed evrey round by Lockett n even in the second round Lockett breaks his right wrist so he is fighting using only the jab! n still manages to knock him down in evrey round, pavlik then starts crying in the middle rounds where the whole crowd is laughing at him!

then that sir is a upset!

 

I dont know who's considered favourite in Abraham vs Miranda II, but if its Abraham I think Miranda will score an upset.

Margarito has a decent chance at scoring an upset against Cotto if that fight will be signed.

RJJ vs Calzaghe ?? very unlikely but possbile.

 

I think NDou has a good chance of a upset.

I feel also whoever fights Guzman next has a chance as he fights on average every two years and is already 32.

I was going to say i thought Arthur had a great shot to win being a bigger and with more power over in Scotland when Guzman has never really traveled. Pity the fight was postponed.

 

Hatton will still be laughing so much at Witter he'll get knocked out by Lazcano...

 

I don't see any of the above 'upsets' happening, but then again I only saw Andy Lee losing his 0 because he had been way over hyped.

I think Duddy will also be KTFO, by his next half decent opponent.

 

Now that would be funny :good

 

Casa UD J.Diaz

 

If I have to vote on one, I'd pick Miranda upsets Abraham, since the fight will be held at 166 which is really a disadvantage for Abraham.

Upset is possible in the Gamboa, Pacquiao and maybe Lazcano fights, I just wouldn't bet money on them.

Gutierrez and Munoz might upset Angulo and Mijares this Saturday though...

 

Roy Jones beats Joe Calzaghe I hope so. I really want Jones to retire soon and if he is I want the former Pound 4 Pound King to go out with a bang by defeating the undefeated Joe Calzaghe.

But the thing is if he does beat Calzaghe then he will probly want to fight again and again and again.

 

My vote goes to

Miranda to beat Abraham

BUT I won't be upset much about it:fire

 

Verno beating Corey was not an upset, it was a robbery.

 

I'd really like to think Lockett has even an outside chance against Pavlik, but I can't see it - mainly because a puncher's chance is only worthwhile if you can hit the other guy, and with Gary's rudimentary technique and Pavlik's movement he'll be knocking out an awful lot of air that night! Plenty of boxers can hit hard but when they come up against someone who can punch AND box it's usually game over.
As a Welsh guy it's good to see him getting the exposure and a title shot but the best he can hope for imo is a good showing and a late stoppage with no lasting damage, leading to some decent mid-range paydays and possibly another shot against a weaker titlist in a few year's time.
