    Giants win the superbowl
    Quintana beats Williams (I had this picked!!!)
    Taylor will beat Pavlik (Feel good about this one)
    Ibrogimov will beat Klitschko (I think he has a decent chance)



    Your thoughts?

    Not shocked about the Giants but picked Pats
    Definitely not shocked about Williams but didn't have the balls to pick it.
    I'm still iffy about JT.
    No way in hell Wlad loses to Sultan!

    No way Ibragimov beats Klitschko, IMO.

    JT vs KP is 50/50 for me. Too many people ruling Jermain out already. Don't do it!

    Go back to your damn hole you have been hiding in. You go into hiding when your fighter loses and now comes back to talk **** again. Troll.

    Giants and Quintana has an upset butterfly effect on the upcoming bouts? I don't undestand much about metaphysics but I have to say this about Jermain... He can't fight on the back foot and he can't counter-puch. If you think otherwise, check on the right hand he took at the 2:30 s mark of round number 9 against Bernard - he was wide open to that shot and to make it worse, he sticks his chin up and has a very low left guard... Also, JT didn't really counter-punch KP in the second round, he threw his right shot over Pavlik's left shoulder almost at the same time as Pavlik came short with his left jab - you have to make you opponent miss and capitalize with a countermove and JT really didn't do that. Again, JT can't counter-punch him but he can get first and often enough - and I wouldn't call that a upset. As for Klitschko vs Ibragimov, Iggy winning would be a huge upset ( like Quintana's win was) and according to probabilities, that is unlikely to happen.

    You pick Pavlik to lose every fight. He is still undefeated BTW.

    No, I picked Pavlik to win every fight he has fought except for Miranda. I thought he would beat Taylor last fight. But now I pick Taylor to win the rematch.

    I wouldn't be so sure about this one, but I ain't counting Taylor out. If he hurt Pavlik the first time he can do it again, BUT if he doesn't play it smart he is going to get KO. Pavlik's straight right hand is very powerful.

    Taylor has a better chance against Pavlik than Ibragimov does against Klitschko.

    Taylor/Pavlik is about 50/50. I'm leaning towards Jermain.

    Can't see Pov beating Wlad.
