    As the barxng year draws to a close, what would you say your best and worst calls on the domestic scene have been last year? I don't see there's room for any good or bad shouts this weekend so figured there's no harm in starting this thread now.

    For me, my best was calling Eggington beating Gavin. Not exactly glamorous but one I am proud of.

    My worst? Calling Rocky Fielding to upset Smith. I should have been banned for that.

    I haven't had a good year of predictions haha

    Best call; Smith to do Fielding inside 3 and Eggington to stop Gavin

    Worst call; Quigg to beat Frampton

    Haven't had anything spectacular.

    Best has been Saunders to beat Lee on points (and I also called Saunders to KD Lee in that fight). Made myself and a lot of mates some decent money there.

    Called Ward to beat Kovalev too on points and despite the controversy I scored it clearly for Ward.

    Worst call was probably Makabu to KO Bellew (told mates this was a cert) and also Norman to beat Edwards (this was a long shot but Edwards won every round which made it look bad).

    Best: Frampton to easily best Quigg - and although not domestic LSC, Groves to beat outpoint Murray

    The year before Smith to smash Rocky and Coyle to Campbell to be too much for Smith

    Worst: Not domestic but cost me all my vcash that useless old lump Ortiz to stop Scuba Scott.

    Best call- Picking Scott to go the full 12 rounds against Ortiz (yes it's on record here)

    Worst call- Pumping up Can Martin to beat AJ (truly awful call)

    i think frank bolgenese is a decent fighter with power, and burton is on that level but on the rise, he could be caught
