# Fight Prediction Result Points
1 Miguel Cotto vs. Yuri Foreman Miguel Cotto - Decision Miguel Cotto - Round 9 20
It's a tough fight to call. Foreman has some obvious advantages, but he has no pop. Cotto's gonna have to rip shots to Yuri's body when possible.
2 Amir Khan vs. Paulie Malignaggi Amir Khan - Round 12 Amir Khan - Round 11 25
Amir Khan has the advantages in this one, after thinking about it, Paulie Malignaggi only fights with one hand (the left jab) most of the fight with occassional small 2 or 3 punch combinations, Khan has the speed, power, and movement to counter Malignaggi's pure boxing style. 2ndly Khan puts together multiple combinations and can KO with either hand.
3 Andre Ward vs. Allan Green Andre Ward - Decision Andre Ward - Decision 22
Andre Ward has proven himself as an established fighter with plenty of tools, Allan Green has to prove otherwise.
4 Victor Ortiz vs. Nate Campbell Victor Ortiz - Round 10 Victor Ortiz - Decision 20
Nate Campbell is a gritty battle tested veteran who will make Ortiz work. In this case however Ortiz will be the naturally bigger fighter with KO power over Campbell.
5 Israel Vazquez vs. Rafael Marquez Rafael Marquez - Round 11 Rafael Marquez - Round 3 20
"The Final Chapter" I have no idea who's going to win, these are the smaller versions of Ward & Gatti It's simply a toss up, I'll go with Marquez to even it up at 2 wins a piece.
6 Paul Williams vs. Kermit Cintron Paul Williams - Round 10 Paul Williams - Decision 20
I think Cintron is going to come into this fight better than usual, I believe Cintron is still the harder puncher and can get a knockdown if he catches Williams, Overall Williams volume of punches will make Cintron succomb to the punishment, late TKO for Williams. Williams shouldnt underestimate Cintron.
7 Lucian Bute vs. Edison Miranda Lucian Bute - Round 10 Lucian Bute - Round 3 20
Bute outboxes Miranda. Miranda has to land a KO in this one, thats the only way i see him winning
8 Alfredo Angulo vs. Joel Julio Alfredo Angulo - Round 9 Alfredo Angulo - Round 11 25
I don't see this fight going the distance, especially if they start fighting in the "telephone booth". i say 60/40 in favor of Angulo, but Julio winning wouldn't be a surprise either. This is going to be a battle. The best chin will win
9 Shane Mosley vs. Floyd Mayweather Shane Mosley - Round 10 Floyd Mayweather - Decision 0
Mosley is an A class opponent, an Elite WW, this will be Mayweather's first time fighting an A class opponent above 135lbs, granted he was cornered in to fighting Shane. May 1st will be a rude awakening, hence the rematch clause from the Mayweather camp, due to Mosley's speed, power, and Mosley's battle tested resume against the better, bigger, tougher, and more dangerous opponents. Mosley by a KTFO in the late rounds
10 Tomasz Adamek vs. Cristobal Arreola Tomasz Adamek - Decision Tomasz Adamek - Decision 22
Adamek has the better boxing ability, speed, and ring generalship to pepper Arreola for a 12 rd decision. Arreola has really only 2 things to bring to the table: power & pressure. Adameks chin will be tested against Arreola, That's where Adameks "?" comes in, can he handle a true HW punch. Then again Arreola's stamina, strength & conditioning is a major factor. Adamek will be able to pick his shots, and move about more fluidly as the fight goes on, cause Arreola's stamina and endurance are lacking. Arreola's only way to win is being able to land that Thunderous right hand.
11 Carl Froch vs. Mikkel Kessler Mikkel Kessler - Round 12 Mikkel Kessler - Decision 20
Froch tends to get sloppy, Kessler will exploit Froch's hands being low and will be looking to rebound from the Ward loss. Froch does have some decent Movement at times, but I feel Kessler puts on a good performance in this one.
12 Bernard Hopkins vs. Roy Jones Bernard Hopkins - Round 11 Bernard Hopkins - Decision 20
Hopkins sends Roy into retirement .........Hopefully
13 David Haye vs. John Ruiz David Haye - Round 7 David Haye - Round 9 20
Ruiz hits the canvas in this one.
14 Celestino Caballero vs. Daud Yordan Celestino Caballero - Round 8 Celestino Caballero - Decision 20
15 Andre Berto vs. Carlos Quintana Andre Berto - Decision Andre Berto - Round 8 20
Im torn between this one, Quintana can definately win.
16 Kelly Pavlik vs. Sergio Martinez Sergio Martinez - Decision Sergio Martinez - Decision 22
I feel Martinez has the ability to give Pavlik major problems, Martinez's style of speed, movement, and accuracy will definately have Pavlik being outboxed. Pavlik has power in his favor, if Pavlik can catch Martinez with enough powershots he'll be able to slow Martinez down in the mid to late rounds. 2ndly Pavlik will have to try and bang Martinez's body. End result IMO, I have Martinez winning by decision.
17 Marcos Maidana vs. Victor Cayo Victor Cayo - Decision Marcos Maidana - Round 6 0
I looked for Cayo footage and found next to nothing, read some of his stats and background. I'm thinking Cayo pulls out a decision, Maidana could be waiting to land that right all night with no success, Cayo's movement is pretty fluid and consistant, 2ndly he carries some pop. I believe Maidana has to take this guy out in the mid rounds in order to win.
18 Ali Funeka vs. Joan Guzman Ali Funeka - Decision Joan Guzman - Decision 0
I'm not sure Guzman's slickness will be enough, I think Guzman puts on a better performance this time around though.
19 Arthur Abraham vs. Andre Dirrell Arthur Abraham - Round 11 Pending
After watching the Froch/Dirrell fight replay, I had Dirrell winning it close, simply do to Froch's sloppiness and not being able to land. Dirrell will have his track shoes on and will pose problems for Abraham as far as movement goes, Direll will be running from post to post. Once Abraham lands his right, and amps up the pressure with his deceiving one punch speed Dirrell will hit the canvas in the late rounds.
20 Wladimir Klitschko vs. Eddie Chambers Wladimir Klitschko - Decision Wladimir Klitschko - Round 12 20
I think Eddie does enough to see the finish line using the whole ring. After Wlad lands the first flush right, Eddie will be on the bike eating jabs throughout.
21 Manny Pacquiao vs. Joshua Clottey Manny Pacquiao - Decision Manny Pacquiao - Decision 22
I don't see Pacquiao stopping Clottey, but who knows with Pacquiao, he may be the first to stop him but unlikely IMO. This is no walk in the park for either fighter, but in the end speed, movement and volume punching will win the rounds needed for Pacquiao.
