    Did anyone take your Diaz v Kennedy bet, Bigbone?

    If not, since I am backing the T-man, I'd be willing to oblige.

    Demetrius Hopkins vs. Brad Solomon- Brad Solomon by UD
    Lucian Bute vs. Brian Magee- Lucian Bute by KO
    Vitali Klitschko vs. Odlanier Solis- Vitali Klitschko by KO
    Guillermo Rigondeaux vs. Willie Casey- Guillermo Rigondeaux by KO

    Ok, on paper this isn't a reasonably hard week to predict. Bute, is winning. No doubt about that. Bute is much better in skillwise, he's at home, Showtime has a contract with him, and again he is much much better than Magee. Magee is in the Brinkley class, a good solid fighter, by no means a bum, but not an elite, champion class either. So, Bute is winning however much money you got in your bank account put it on Bute. (Just imagine if somebody actually did that, and Bute lost :rofl )

    Then you know Klitschko is pretty much a lock pick as well, same with Rigo. Klitschko is fighting a small little fat man that thinks he's good, but he's not. He's a small little fat man that can punch, and that's about it. Horrible footwork, horrible speed, horrible work ethic, horrible attitude, horrible everything, except power. He's got good power that folds lesser fighters, but not somebody like Vitali. Vitali will pummel this little small fat man for, I'm hoping for 12 rounds, and brutally knocks him out. I hate Solis, and for the most part I don't hate any fighter nor do I wish them bad luck in the ring, but Solis has a shitty attitude, and itsn't a boxing fan, and anybody that boxes and doesn't like. Well, **** them. Odlanier Solis, or anybody from Team Solis that for some reason is on ESB and happens to stumble on this post. Here's a big FU. :good

    Rigo as I said is pretty much a lock for a win due to the fact that he is much more skilled than Casey, and Casey is way too wide and opens up too much, and I think against somebody like Rigo he will be caught with that deadly left uppercut. So, I've got Rigo by stoppage arounds 5, 6 somewhere in there. I don't recommend betting your bank account on Rigo though. :lol: Casey does have a punchers chance and he will have all of Ireland supporting him. Never underestimate the power of the hometown.

    Now, for the toughest pick of the week Brad Soloman-Demetrius Hopkins. Let's start with the name fighter in this fight and that is Hopkins, Demetrius. Demetrius has well, basically, been babied throughout his career. For the majority of his career, he has been up against not really tough opposition and made them look tougher than they should be. Also, when he was very marketable, and had his "0" I believe he got some decisions he shouldn't have gotten or the judges' scorecards were too wide and that it was pretty obvious the oppoent didn't have much of a shot. He got beat by Kendall Holt in his only "world title" shot and he got beat pretty easily and lost by SD. Fought twice last year and has moved up to 147. He's looked "eh" in those two fights. Definitely, not exciting and definitely not impressive. Then we got Brad Soloman. The handful of times I've seen him, I've been pretty impressed, for the most part. He has been fast tracked and for his last 8 fights or so he has had to work his way up the hard way, and he's only had 16 fights so that tells you about his caracter. (wink wink get :hey ) Anyway, he's got nice skills, he is the bigger fighte, and stylewise I don't think either fighter will look impressive, but I got him winning a UD in the 97-93 region.
