Reigning
Fantasy League Champion
As we
learned from last season, every prediction counts. With an excellent
record of 13 wins, only 3 losses for a total of 277 points Everlast21 came from
behind to take the championship last season. You can see a complete recap of last season here: http://www.liverpuncher.com/articles/fantasy-league-champ-named-2.html

What
Liverpuncher’s are saying about the fight
Nearly
everyone is picking Hatton and Malignaggi to win. And rumors are swirling that this will lead
to a potential showdown later this year in addition to Hatton eyeing a possible
rematch with Mayweather. But before he
looks too far down the road, he has to take care of “The Hispanic Causin’
Panic” on May 24th.
The
big surprise in the predictions is the wide range in which members are
predicting a KO – some think it will be early some late. It could just be that they are looking for
some additional points to pad their fantasy league record, or that Hatton moving
down to the natural weight class is going to make a difference. As lukeblaze (Ricky
Hatton - Round 8) said, “Hatton goes back to the weight class he can dominate
and wins in Hatton fashion.”
The
rematch with Malignaggi and N'Dou isn’t exactly what fight fans have been clamoring for. But if you are Malignaggi’s
management team, why risk losing a big payday with Hatton? Besides, there may have been a rematch clause
in the contract. At any rate, most are
predicting a decision win for Malignaggi including perkthepuncher (Paulie
Malignaggi – Decision) who said, “I
think Paulie is smart enough to have learned his mistakes and capitalize on his
strengths (it's not in the power punches!) and box his way to a unanimous
decision.” Well said.
