    Mine predictions are very similar to yours.

    Wilder vs Breazeale - Wilder KO1 in the very exciting and competeive round

    Usyk vs Takam - Usyk KO4. Usyk will look surprisingly powerful in this fight

    Joshua vs Ruiz - Joshua TKO6. Ruiz will try to cut the distance and launch his fast combos, but Joshua will pound him badly from the distance and eventually stop him

    Fury vs Shwartz - Fury RTD8. The most one-sided and the leat exciting fight among these 4.

    Best fight is Whyte - Rivas. It is the hardest to predict by far.

    The other 4 fights, Wilder, Usyk, Joshua and Fury all win comfortably.

    May 18 - Wilder vs Breazeale

    Wilder KO probs round 7 or 8. May have a couple Ortiz type moments but Wilder only has to hit him once..

    May 25 - Usyk vs Takam.

    Usyk UD. Possibly even a late tko but Usyk should cruise through this one..

    June 1 - Joshua vs Ruiz

    AJ TKO 9-10. Won't be surprised if a towel goes in late just due to a combination of an iron chin v taking heaps of damage..

    June 16 - Fury vs Shwartz

    Who knows Fury has a habit of fighting at the level of his opponent so it most likely be a wide UD or another quit on you stool moment...

    Which of these fights you expect to be the most and the least competetive?

    Most is a hard one maybe Wilder while it lasts..

    Least should be Fury even with his ability to stink..


    Which of these fights you expect to be the most and the least entertaining?

    Most Usyk mainly because to the change in weights I can see Usyk being not on his best with the pressure of fighting a heavyweight.

    Least Fury again cause of the level difference..

    Wilder/Breazeale: Wilder by KO within 4
    Breazeale's defense it to absorb punches with his face and let the guy tire himself out. Wilder's probably one of the last guys you ever want to do that with.

    Takam/Usyk: Usyk by UD or late KO
    Usyk shouldn't have any problems, but I wouldn't be surprised to see this go the distance. Usyk doesn't hit hard and Takam mostly has a good chin -- although chins can go with age.

    Joshua/Ruiz: Joshua by KO within 2
    I always rate Ruiz worse than others it seems. I think this will be a pathetic fight for AJ.

    Fury/Schwarz: Fury by UD or late TKO/RTD

    1. Wilder vs Breazeale will be the most competitive, most entertaining .

    i have an idea who will will win but when one guy doesn't show much anything it's hard to see how sharp he's looking ( Breazeale )..

    Wilder isn't looking half bad , he knows he can't play with an actual puncher coming his way.

    My prediction is Breazeale will win if Wilder comes under weight which is below 216. This fight should have all Wilder fans worried.

    Either Breazeale in 6 or Wilder in 9.


    2. Usyk vs Takam : Usyk UD. He should win 9 rounds.I expect a tough but one sided fight .

    3. Fury vs Shwartz : Will be the least competitive. It could look worse then the Safari fight ? Lol Least entertaining , not much will go in this one. Maybe a fight breaks out in the crowd and Fury can look out while Schwartz tries to hit him ?

    Fury K.O 8th.

    4. Joshua vs Ruiz : Will LOOK competitive with AJ winning comfortably , I'm taking a round 6 win .

    Joshua K.O 6th

    5. Whyte vs Rivas . Similar to AJ vs Ruiz but Whyte will have some rough spots.

    Whyte K.O round 9.

    Wilder/Breazeale - Wilder TKO10 - Going to be more competitive than some think, DB is tough and durable, I can see him giving Wilder some issues. But Wilder eventually gets to him and stops him late.

    Usyk/Takam - Uysk UD - Takam is past his best but pretty durable will be out boxed comfortably by Usyk. Will be impressed if Usyk can get the stoppage.

    Joshua/Ruiz - Joshua TKO5 - Ruiz Jr is too easy to hit, Joshua will want to make a big impression on his US debut. Ruiz will hang in there but eventually be broken down and blasted out.

    Fury/Schwarz - Fury RTD9 - Biggest mismatch of all these fights. Schwarz was lucky to beat Gashi by DQ, the same Gashi an overweight Chisora just beat. Fury will dominate every minute or every round and slowly break him down til Schwarz is either saved by the ref or quits on his stool.

    Of the 4 fights I think Wilder/Breazeale is the best chance of an upset. That's the fight I'm looking forward to most.
