    2017 Lineage and Records​

    Rules:
    - First come first serve on challenges issued
    - No stacking of challenges
    - Can not challenge a fight more than 10 days away
    - If champions change their pick after challenge has been set, they forfeit their title and it goes to the challenger who then becomes the interim champion, to fight for the vacant title against the next challenger
    - Only 1 challenge per day, although a champion can have unlimited defenses per day
    - Anyone who loses a title fight, must wait until 3 challenges occur before they can challenge again. If no one has challenged the champion,
    This content is protected
    (even those who have lost/participated in the past 3 title fights) can challenge the day of the fight they are challenging (12AM est)
    - The champion should try to place their picks as soon as they can, to give the field enough time to challenge their picks.

    There's a lot of group think going on for tomorrow, I'm very disappointed in all of you, think a little harder, don't take such an easy route, can' some of guys take at least one risk? Let's see.


    Here's some variables that really need to be considered.

    Cotto-Kamegai
    Yeah, yeah, Cotto has skills for days, he also tends to wilt when put under constant pressure from a come forward aggressive fighter, Kamegai, while limited is very Margaritoesque, and big as hell, this isn't the fresh Cotto that Margarito first faced, or the washed up one that Margarito took on in the rematch, this is a really washed up Cotto that is coming off of a TWO YEAR LAYOFF at 37, I know my body at 37 doesn't feel nearly as good as it did two years ago. Kamegai has looked very impressive in his last two outings, both of which were wins IMO. Sergio had no legs, Delvin is not good at all, Geale was drained to a corpse. When was the last time Cotto stopped a non injured fighter? His power still isn't all that great, and who knows how much he's deteriorated in the last two years. Upset very possible.

    Vargas-Rios
    Okay fine Rios got stopped by Castellanos, but so did Gamboa, Castellanos IMO was ahead when they stopped the Corrales fight, there's no shame in losing to Robin Hood. Rios had just come off of a long layoff before that match and IIRC there were rumors he wasn't really all that dedicated to the sport, that he was living it up. Well after getting his ass beat by Castellanos, Rios has looked like a straight beast, he beat the p*** out of Velez, he destroyed Roy Tapia, and since moving down from FW to SBW, he seems reinvigorated. Vargas hasn't shown me a whole lot, fine he beat McDonnell, but the average one Gavin, not Jamie. And quite frankly I was disappointed with that performance, Gavin was walking him down late and even seemed to hurt him a few times. Rios will bring constant pressure be in his face and work his body throughout, clearly Vargas' power isn't all that. There could easily be a huge upset in this match, consider it before making any rash decisions.

    Jack-Cleverly
    Cut the ****, Jack barely beat Groves, DeGale, Bute or Dirrell and didn't beat Periban. Its not that Jack is all that great, its that most of the guys at SMW are kind of shitty. Ward and Froch would slice through all of them like a hot knife through butter. Bute just got brutally KTFO by one of the most featherfisted fighters at LHW in Alvarez. Clev looked great for 6 rounds against Fonfara before his nose got injured, he looked pretty damn good against Braehmer, and yes Braehmer pulled a quit job for the first time in his career, because Clev was starting to hurt him. Clev has sneaky power, its not all that great, but its enough to give opponents pause. Jack was rocked late by Bute, dropped by DeGale and remember KTFO by Edwards, the idea that his chin might not hold up at LHW isn't far fetched. His power isn't amazing at SMW, why would it drastically improve moving up 7 pounds? This will be a slug fest, but here's the chance, Groves pot shots, Bute is a one at a time straight left guy, Degale wings wild shots, but usually one or two at a time, Dirrell tends to potshot as well. Jack outworked those low output guys, barely, Clev outworks low output guys....EASILY.

    Mayweather-McGregor
    Yeah Conor has never stepped foot in a boxing ring as a pro, but that might works in his favor, its harder to cut off the far larger octagon, and he's a counter puncher, he's a good striker and tends to do his best work on his feet, he doesn't love rolling on the ground molesting guys, that's not his forte. So its not like he will go in completely clueless. He is heavy handed, he is a professional athlete who competes in combat sports. He can take a punch with 4 oz gloves on, 8 oz will be just fine. I doubt Floyd could survive the mauling that Diaz gave Conor in the rematch and get back up and finish strong. So he has decent powers of recovery. I think he's going to go for the volume route like he was doing with Paulie, tap and tap and tap and occasionally look for an opening to get that straight left in. Floyd is 40 and has been out of he ring for two years. He's gonna get old one day, and he didn't look all that great today. Floyd is special, but so is McGregor, crazier things have happened. Like a month ago.


    Think these matches out a little more thoroughly.

    Speaking of hard calls, one more thing, its not a given Ugas beats Dulorme, if Dulorme can keep his distance, he UD's Ugas easily.
