    Good doubleheader coming up on ESPN Friday Night Fights this weekend:

    Artur Szpilka vs. Mike Mollo (rematch, first fight was highly entertaining)

    Gabriel Campillo vs. Andrzej Fonfara (IBF eliminator)

    What are your thoughts and predictions for those two fights?

    Szpilka by KO again and Fonfara by decision.

    Mike's aggressive, but he leaves himself wide open every time he attacks. He might hurt Szpilka again, but he'll get more than he dishes out.
    Fonfara wins no matter what...

    I've added a poll.

    Mollo looks in great shape right now, I think he'll beat Szpilka.

    Fonfara will likely beat Campillo. But if the version of Campillo who fought Cloud shows up, he has a very good chance of defeating Fonfara.

    Szpilka will win much more clearly this time, he won't underestimate Mollo

    I suspect Fonfara will get the decision, even if it's a close fight, simply because he's a bigger draw than Campillo, he has huge fanbase in Chicago and a lot of his fights have been televised on ESPN

    Szpilka wins by KO.

    i don't really know how much Campillo has at this time. but i'll go with a close points win for Fonfara.

    Campillo says he's had a good training camp and will be at his best for the fight tomorrow night.

    I think Fonfara is crap and the much classier boxer in Campillo will handle him easily. But when has a fighter ever not said he had a great training camp?!

    Fonfara has only put on solid shows against recent - good opposition so I don't see why he is labeled as crap from some people here. Until he shows a sign of weakness against good guys then I have confidence in him.. (Don't consider Karpency fight a weakness because he rocked Tommy in the 1st round and then broke his hand) I was there live, we were all wondering why the hell he wasn't throwing the right anymore
