    Dzinziruk schooled Julio, but Sergiy is a master boxer, and kirkland is green....I say Kirkland TKO late

    Julio should pull this one out..
    Kirkland will drown against pressure, IMO.
    (Can't wait to be proven wrong! by the prospect)

    This is one of the best style match-ups in the sport. Has war written all over it. I don't have a preference for who wins but I do think Julio would be the favorite. He has more big fight experience and seems to be a better boxer than Kirkland. Close, exciting fight with Julio winning.

    Kirkland's going to kick Joel's ass.

    I'm going slightly with Kirkland.. but the chances of a Julio upset are very high.

    Terrific match up, Kirklands biggest test. My first thought is Kirkland needs more than just brute power get close.

    Going with Julio in this one. Atleast he's shown me some technique and skill in the past while Kirkland has shown me almost none of that lately. His fight versus Vera was hideously ugly to say the least.

    Julio by 8th round KO.
