    Winner 1= floyd
    Winner 2= chavez
    Winner 3= mosley
    Winner 4= carter

    Semi 1= chavez
    Semi 2= mosley

    Final = chavez

    Shane is a top class h2h lw imo but his lack of jab means he won't be able to keep chavez away from him. I don't think he beats chavez on the inside and julio's chin and conditioning should rule out any danger of a stoppage. Chavez wins by competitive ud which looks a bit wider due to chavez pulling away down the stretch and finishing stronger than shane.

    I was about to agree with luf's take...but I'm really not that sure about picking Mosley over Carter, tough one.

    How do you see the carter v mosley match up going?

    I can't see him withstanding a prime mosley's combinations.
