i think Guerrero wins it by early KO, Linares hopefully bounces back and makes a statement by stopping Juarez, and well Marquez probably finishes Diaz by the 5th

How about the Jacobs/Pirog scrap? I know the odds are on Jacobs, but it should be a fight.

Pirog is a complete unknown to me. Some decent wins, and we know Jacobs has chinks in the armor after that Ishe Smith fight. I'd lean towards Jacobs slightly due to quality of opposition.

Here are my picks for that card.
-I see JMM picking Diaz apart this time. Diaz will have little sparks here and there but nothing serious. JMM TKO again.
-I see Linares outboxing Rocky clearly UD.
-If Dmitry can box and create room he outboxes Danny but if he let's Danny dictate the fight and let's Danny pin him against the ropes it's lights out for Dmitry.
-Joel will box well for several rounds but will fall apart as the bout goes on. I see a TKO win for Robert.
-I see Bika wining via TKO, can't see Jean giving any problems.

Nice line up for a PPV finally,regardless of 9 lives Rocky Juarez being on it.I think the main event might end up being the most one sided.Nice to see Linares bounce back,just seems like one who should of been a breakthrough star.Not sold on Jacobs at all but dont know a thing about Pirog.I know its PPV but they may not show all five ?

This fight is on sky sports

and Sakio Bika v. Mendy. Is it me or is this a really good card? I'm excited about it. I like Marquez over Diaz faster this time around. I like Guerrero over Casamayor, but if Casamayor brings his "A" game, it could be a closer-than-expected fight. Will someone enlighten me as to Dimitry Pirog? I'll go with Jacobs, but I don't know much about Pirog. And how did Rocky Juarez get another big fight? I mean seriously. I like Linares in that one. Bika wins his too.

pIrog is a class act very cute fighter not your typical euro fighter has some nice defense skills, he was supposed to be fighting Macklin over here last year and I was ready to rob the bank to get everything I had on Pirog to beat him I think the odds were like 8/11 Macklin Evs Pirog.

50/50 fight this one could go either way not totally sold on Jacobs hard to call a winner but with it being Golden Boy card Pirog will have to go some to get the decision. here is a little video of him.

usually find myself talking through an undercard and waiting for the big one

But will be glued to my tv screen come 2am, excellent stuff HBO

Hopefully get to see George Groves as well...first fight in the US, hope he impresses

If he's still fighting that night that is..I think he is.

on paper it's a stacked card, but i'm starting to get the feeling that it may end up a huge let down, Linares Vs Juarez might actually steal the show though (and it's amazing i'm saying that about a fight including Rocky Juarez)
