    I bet on Rahman against Lewis in their first fight, Prescott to ko Khan and Mayweather to stop Hatton. I tend to do ok on boxing, not other sports.

    Stevenson Vs Dawson
    Jones Vs Lebedev (Guillermo not Roy)
    Rigo Vs Donaire
    Froch Vs Kessler 1
    those are just in recent memory

    My proudest ('n loudest) prediction ('n prayer), along with everyone else in the shadow of the Brooklyn Bridge, was Rocky Graziano doing the impossible, beating the Iron Man, Tony Zale.

    I said Garcia would knock out Khan before the fifth round, and that it would be the left hook that wound end it. A lot of people back then were picking Khan to blow Garcia away pretty early.

    Also picked Martinez to school Chavez Jr. (although the last round was a nail biter)

    off the top of my head...

    Margo over Cotto
    had a feeling that Stevenson would stop Dawson (although i never put it down on here. and didn't think it would come that quick)
    Rigo over Donaire
    Barrera over Morales (first fight. Barrera was robbed )
    Morales over Barrera (second fight. Morales was robbed. although not to the extent that Barrera was ripped off)
    Rahamn over Lewis (first fight. it was after the first round had happened mind. those who i watched with thought i was crazy for saying it. but i could see it coming)

    i've got Bradley over Marquez as well. Bradley isn't going to play into the hands of Marquez with his counter punching. he'll be smart and try bring Marquez onto him or keep it centre ring.

    i've got Cleverly beating Hopkins down. there was some serious talk for a fight between the two this summer but it seems that Hopkins has gone quiet on it.

    the talk seems to be Cleverly vs Kovalev now. i've got Cleverly by stoppage within 10 if it happens.

    :lol:

    Hatton ****ed up with his tactics in that fight. Mayweather SR didn't turn up until an hour before the fight so Hatton would only listen to Lee Beard. he didn't listen to much mind. Hatton went for the suicide way of things and you could see it wouldn't end well.

    it wasn't nice seeing Ricky out like that. nasty punch that took him out.

    i always said that Froch would knock Bute out, but at that point i didn't know what Froch had left for the game due to him losing his last one. so i gave the edge to Bute.

    if it had happened a couple of fights earlier, i'd of been certain of a Froch win by KO.

    sadly, i picked Senchenko to beat Hatton as well.

    got the Khan one wrong. i wouldn't have, had Khan of not done the stupid move of coming in with an uppercut against a counter puncher with the left hook. that's probably the silliest thing i've ever seen.

    That Evander Holyfield would beat the holy**** out of Tyson in their first match. I was right, Tyson was holyhead butted throughout.

    I think Zale claimed the heat beat him any truth to that?
