    In which of the fights this weekend is an upset most likely to happen?

    Wolak-Rodriguez and Cotto-Margarito are more evenly matched so I'm not including them in the poll.

    For me, the most likely is Chisora-Helenius (35%) followed by Boswell-Povetkin (20%).

    I believe Murray has a very slim chance against Sturm (5%) because Sturm looked a bit faded in his last fight.

    The other Murray has no chance whatsoever against Rios, and Lujan has no chance of beating Jones.

    Murray's only chance is if he can put down Sturm for a count of 50.
    Any less and it'll go to the scorecards.

    He has a real chance.

    Some people are underestimating him because of the Fury fight, but he was overweight then and now he's in shape.

    Lujan has no chance, none whatsoever.

    None of those seem terribly likely.

    That one seems to be a fairly even matchup, so either winning wouldn't be an upset. I'm picking Moreno to win.
