Predictions for the upcoming HW fights?

I for one wouldn't be bothered much by a "I told ya so!"
I would be probably be laughing for 3 straight days if that somehow happens.
The "British joke of the HW division" from about 3 years ago bitchslaps the "British savior of the HW division" from about 3 years ago!

Can't see it happen, but if it does it would be hilarious! :yep

When was the last time we had a thread discussing 5 upcoming HW matchups? I love it.

Having said that, I agree with the majority of the predictions here, except for: What makes you guys think Arreola will stretch out Mitchell so easily? Yes I understand the glass jaw theory, but Arreola has his own flaws (work rate, accuracy, lazy lab etc) and is a sucker for a good counter thanks to his own lack of speed. I wouldn't write Mitchell off completely, and would assume at least the first couple rounds could be even before Arreola's experience lets him take the upper hand.

 

Fury-Haye Unanimous decision
Povetkin-Wlad TKO/KO 8
Thompson-Pulev Unanimous decision
Arreola-Mitchell KO 4

 

Arreola did not train much for Stiverne. Arreola was doing well until one punch happened to break his nose, yet Arreola fought on, had Stiverne in trouble on the ropes, but did not have the stamina to put him away. Vitali will have the stamina to put Stiverne away. Vitali knows Stiverne well..............

 

Also.

Adamek-Guinn Unanimous decision
Liakhovich-Wilder TKO 7
Ustinov-Tua Unanimous decision
Glazkov-Polley KO 2

 

All in fun...

Fury-Haye, Haye early-mid T/KO, if it goes into late rounds Fury has a decent chance
Povetkin-Wlad, Wlad by mid-late T/KO
Thompson-Pulev, Pulev UD
Arreola-Mitchell, Arreola by early-mid T/KO
Boytsov-Chisora, very hard to handicap, Boytsov U or even M/SD

 

This.

I'll also throw Wilder vs. Liakhovich out there. I think Wilder stops him in the first 4 rounds.

 

Fury-Haye Haye by TKO4

Povetkin-Wlad Povetkin's block head is a great target,TKO6 for Wladdy boy


Thompson-Pulev Thompson UD? Not sure about this one.


Arreola-Mitchell Arreola KO3 All day. Seth ain't got half a chin


Boytsov-Chisora Chisora TKO6
Boytsov the 10 year vet with zero names on the record. Takes huge amounts of time off in between fighting journeymen,zero head movement etc Chisora will out work him and make him quit.
