The DEFCON-1 Red Alert Warning Thread: If You Have An Upset To Call Then Pound The Alarm!

Yellow for Povetkin on Joshua, 15% chance.

*Yellow instead of Green

The other matches, to be honest I'm not familiar with most of those guys or I almost see no chance of an upset.

 

I'll be down for it!

 

Tubby as a roving reporter?? ROFLMAO

 

Red Alert - calling this early, Lemieux will beat Canelo, in Canelo's next fight. Lemieux is a lot better than his fight with BJS showed. Canelo will have been off the PED's a bit longer by the time he fights the french canadien, even though GGG's power didn't get Canelo, Lemieux's will. He will even win on points if it go's the distance due to multiple knockdowns. Even in Vegas!
Green Alert - Povetkin will beat joshua, again if not by KO, multiple knockdowns will earn the points for a win. I kinda hope this doesn't happen because I don't have the money to put on it, if I did, it would be red. I don't really understand why he is such a big underdog in this fight.
Red Alert- Mendy to beat Campbell, plain and simple, has his number.

 

Molina beating Ortiz isn't an upset. It's a 50/50 fight. I actually respect Ortiz for taking this fight because his defense isn't that good. He will get touched by Molina. And Molina hits like a ****ing truck!

 

I hear where you're coming from with Canelo-Lemieux but I think it will go down similarly to the GGG fight. Canelo is just leagues above him skillwise, he's not going to fight him, he'll use GGG's blueprint, he'll establish the jab early (and he's got a decent jab) and just hammer his head with shots until he stops him. Lemieux is far too crude to do anything about that and has zero defense. Moreover, Canelo is too sharp for him to mount any kind of offense on him.

Holding thumbs for the Povetkin upset. I can see that big overhand right catching AJ on the temple, stunning him for a split second and Povetkin with a half shuffle to the right and slamming that cannon shell of a left hook right in his gob.

 

I'll tip my hat to all those predicting Povetkin to get any sort of upset here if they prove correct.

For the life of me I can't see how AJ is really troubled here. Povetkin gets clever, ships a right hand and it's game over.

I like a good scrap too but isn't some of this Pov hype just hate/wishful thinking?

 

I really fancy Askin this weekend, but is that much of an upset really?

 

Pov certainly does not ''carve through" AJ's resume IMO.

If/when Pov gets bummelled by AJ I expect some humility and realism from a lot on here.

I'm happy to admit it when I'm wrong.
