Cunningham v Adamek Wlad vs Rahman Holt vs Hopkins Toney vs Oquendo I'm most hopped up for Adamek and Cunningham, and gonna watch all of those other 3. It's not a superfight week, and there's no Manny/Oscar, Roy/Joe, Marquez/Vasquez types.. but damn.. what more can you ask for in December all in one week? Which fights you gonna watch, and who's gonna win? My pics: Cunningham in a close disputed decision. Wlad by brutal 3rd KO. Holt KO late of Hopkins who is just trying to survive but finally gets caught. Toney loses a razor close decision to Oquendo. Just want to add, that I'm a huge fan of cross-roads fights.. I love watching the elite v elite.. but my second favorite is a cross-roads fight, where it's pretty much the last hope for a guy, or a chance for a guy on the way down against a guy on the way up, etc. Rahman v Wlad, Toney v Oquendo both fit that mold. Rahman won't ever get another chance, and Toney or Oquendo can get a big fight if they win this one, and the loser probably goes away.
This is actually a great week for boxing. The Adamaek fight is the headliner for me. My pics(I have been wrong terrbily lately):nut Cunningham by UD Wlad TKO around round 7 Holt UD Hopkins 9-3 Toney wide UD Oquendo 10-2
The Torres pull-out is the one that sucks the most. I wanted to see the 3rd fight, Hopkins is only so-so, never been super impressed with him -minus the highlight reel KO of Warrick.. he's not too exciting. Thompson just flat out sucks, so I'm not mourning his departure from the fight.. Besides it was always a fight I was more interested in the outcome than actually watching it take place.
Whats cunningham like i read somewhere floyd mayweather snr refers to him as abit slow (******ed) :rofl
Honestly, I'm only looking forward to watching Wlad vs. Rahman. Toney vs. Oquendo promises to be a Horror Show! I hope one of them does something out of character and that the fight ends within 6 rounds (now that is unlikely!).
