    I'm looking forward to tonights boxing but unfortunately they're nearly all huge mismatches. Cotto v Mayorga will be fun as long as it lasts though.

    Can't wait to see Cotto. Only fights every blue moon but always puts on a show.

    Mayorga will bring it so it will be good.

    Unless we're lucky with the timing Cotto-Mayorga is probably the fight I'll miss out on.

    My predictions (for what it's worth) are:

    DeGale via TKO - this French journeyman looks like he's come over for the money. seems a pointless fight but good to get DeGale back in the spotlight.

    Burns via UD - I think Burns will struggle more than he should but he'll get home with almost every round on the scorecards.

    Lee via UD - McEwan will push him hard but Lee should have too much to get the decision overal.

    Martinez UD - I think this will be a poor fight but it'll be interesting to see Martinez again. If he can force a stoppage and look exciting doing so then hopefully it'll lead to a massive fight later on in the year.

    Cotto via KO - Gonna be a war but Mayorga is way past it. I have a sneaking feeling that Cotto might get put down early but will rally back well to stop Mayorga.

    Wolak via MD - Upset of the night. Not a massive rater of Foreman but have to admit I've never seen Wolak.

    Stick a tenner on that then post me the winnings ;)

    I'm gonna miss this.

    Gotta go out, have birthday drinks, talk to actual people and then come home and have sex with some hot bird.:-(

    Well, all of the above, except with "having a wank" substituted for the "sex with some hot bird bit".

    Have a good night of boxing gentlemen.:good
