Name 5 fighters who will lose their world titles in the ring in 2015

I don't think he'll lose to Smith either, but the very next fight after that.

You might be right. But I'm hoping he'll fight either of them before years end and that would mean losing his belt. (probably just idle hope knowing King)

 

That fight would be either Sturm or Sturm/Stieglitz winner.

 

My money is on the Stieg :yep

 

Well I'm hoping for the Sturm win so we finally get Abraham vs Sturm.

Also Sauerland is positioning Zeuge to the WBO title shot soon enough. He's currently rated #5 behind Stieglitz, Ramirez (who is also #2 or 3 on all other ratings, unlikely that he'll go for WBO), DeGale (who is on the IBF route) and Smith (will lose the rating if he loses to Abraham). So basically Zeuge will be next in line very soon. Until then I doubt that Abraham will take a risky fight other than Sturm/Stieglitz.

 

All these posts about Andy Lee losing it in the ring????:huh

who exactly is gonna beat him in Limerick?

BJS will be the best fighter he'll face in 2015, and he's not likely to lose that fight in his hometown.

And besides that, he'll fight a voluntary in Limerick first, probably against Macklin, and we've seen how far he's declined since the Martinez fight.

Now, you got Willie Monroe Jr, who's as crude as they come, fighting Brian Vera this month, and if Viera has ANYTHING left in the tank, chances are he beats Monroe, and we all know that Lee will be angling for that fight as well.

And if Monroe happens to best Viera.....then I guess Andy comes back to NYC and makes a defense against Monroe in the small room, or on one of GGG's undercards.

My prediction for Andy Lee's year is UD 12 Billy Joe Saunders in UK, TKO 6 Macklin in Limerick, then KO3 Monroe or UD 12 Viera on a GGG undercard on HBO hyping a matchup/unification fight with GGG in 2016.

As for my predictions

Stiverne will lose to Wilder cuz he doesnt know how to fight off the front foot early on.

Cotto will be robbed vs Mayweather at 155, or be steamrolled by Canelo at 159.

Taylor will be KTFO by Quillin a week before his trial.

Lamont Peterson will be decisioned vs Danny Garcia.

Gradovich will be KO'd by Walters or Lomachenko.

Anthony Dirrel will be KO'd by Lefty Sanchez Ramirez
