    1. Beterbiev vs. Cloud (I'm very excited about this one, I have high hopes for Beterbiev)

    2. Wlodarczyk vs. Drozd (two top 5 cruiserweights, Wlodarczyk is an under-appreciated fighter, Drozd looked very good in his last fight)

    3. Lebedev vs. Kolodziej

    4. Abraham vs. Smith

    Picked Beterbiev Cloud because I only got 1 choice. Tavoris Cloud as an opponent for Beterbiev's 6th pro fight is crazy.
    The 2 Cruiserweight fights will be more entertaining than the PPV card we had a few weeks ago.
    Also think Abraham v Smith will be an entertaining fight.
    A lot of casual fans will be missing out on good action this weekend.

    This ^. With only one pick I've gone with Beterbiev - Cloud, but both the CW matchups are intriguing.

    Abraham vs Paul Smith should be OK but I think Paul will be overmatched and likely stopped - a much more interesting fight would be the more talented Callum vs AA.

    Beterbiev-Cloud is an interesting fight, talk about fast track.

    I cringe at thought of RJJ fight... considering I have to listen to him talk every time HBO has WCB on, and fighting CW in Russia at his age isnt going to help. Honestly I just wish ward would officially retire, and become full time HBO analyst.

    How the hell did Paul Smith even get a title shot. This is nearly as bad as Garcia-Salka

    Rumble on the River.

    I know they're all old and past it.

    I know the level of opposition will be woeful.

    But they're all big names and I always was a big fan of Mayorga.

    Wlod vs Drozd is a decent match up and I'll also be interested to see how much Abraham has left and how well Smith performs.

    Overall, though, it's the Mayorga fight for me.

    I wouldn't write Paul Smith off, but that's more due to Abraham being fairly shite these days than Smith being any good.

    Picking Callum Smith to win that fight would be the easiest decision I make all week.

    Beterbiev v Cloud. It is a huge step up for Beterbiev.

    The Russian card is solid as well.

    Beterbiev - Cloud & Wlodarcyzk-Drozd are equally very intriguing
