    Tyson to destroy Holyfield.
    Abraham to KO Froch.

    I'm a bit surprised I haven't seen the failed Haye KO Wlad predictions here, because there were a lot of them.

    When this question is asked, the first fight that comes to mind is Adonis Stevenson vs Tavoris Cloud. I actually felt Cloud was going to take Stevenson late and stop him. I felt Stevenson was a flash in the pan. That's probably the worst one I've made.

    Great topic. I think my worst was that I thought young Pavlik would be too much for old Bhop who I didn't think could avoid getting ktfo. Shame on me.

    Was just reminded that I thought Tyson was going to beat down the Real Deal, too. That was almost as shameful as picking Pavlik over Bhop. :duh

    I thought Dustin Nichols was going to KTFO Dentay Wilder. Instead he just dropped and schooled him.

    How long have you got?

    I'll omit Haye beating Bellew as he is an excellent salesman.

    Fielding to upset Smith.
    Chisora to beat Fury.
    Crolla to beat Linares first time around (although this was partly aided by British judges).

    Not the worst prediction I have ever made, but I predicted holyfield would beat Tyson and everybody thought I was absolutely nuts.

    First bout of theirs Del was scoring big in the early rounds with his overhand right.Fury had been dropped by the same shot v Pajkic,shook up v Firtha and dropped by Cunningham.

    Del was on a good run and had dropped the iron chinned Kevin Johnson with a well timed overhand right not long before hand.

    It was a considered prediction,a wrong one,a badly wrong one but it was considered.

    I was dead sure Wlad would blow through Fury. Well, so much for that.

    Recently? Eubanks over Groves. Bought into the hype hook line and sinker.
