Thread: JMM-Katsidis, Ward-Bika, Froch-Abraham, this saturday....

Is going to be a great saturday night. Andre Berto is on the undercard of the JMM bout as well. My predictions are:

JMM by stopage
Ward by decision
Froch by close decision

what are your guys thoughts for this weekend.

I forgot Froch was on this Sat! Thought it was still a couple weeks away.

It's a great weekend of boxing, but it's going to be a nightmare for UK fans to watch. Streams only for most.

This has the potential to be the best weekend of boxing of the year can't wait just hope Sky pick up the Marquez fight.

Results wise:

Ward by UD
Froch by SD
I still think Katsidis has a early KO in him. If he doesn't do it in 2 1/2 rounds, JMM by late stoppage.

Hopefully you get it. The JMM-Katsidis is good card. They also have Andre Berto vs. Freddy Hernandez, and Celestino Caballero vs. Jason Litzau on the card. To me from top to bottom is a better card than the Pac-Margs PPV a couple of weeks ago, and this is free on HBO. I was thinking of going to the Ward fight, but decided to just stay home and watch all the fights saturday night

Back to back solid weekends,have to love it.

Jmm via ballsy tko and Kats will make him feel his age as long as his face stays together.

Froch off the floor for w.12

Have a crazy uncertain feeling about Ward vs Bika. Not sure why...blame the peyote. Tonight I think sleeper Bika tkos him in ugly stunner

Berto wins in more obscurity and championship stagnation.

(hey maybe I still have guilt about picking Manfredo to beat him)

Yea I am super pumped about the fights this weekend. i have to eat thanksgiving dinner wit my inlaws but I will be counted the minutes till i will home watching them.
jmm by late stoppage
ward by dec
berto by ko
AA by ko

Can't wait for Froch/ Abraham & Marquez/ Katsidis! Split on both fights! I can see anyone winning either fight... I think Abraham takes it, my mind says Marquez but my heart is with Katsidis!

I'm going to be there LIVE in Oakland, CA to watch Ward vs. Bika.

I'm a be pullin for Bika. Maybe not too loud tho since it is OAKLAND...

Yeah ought to be a great freaking weekend of boxing and hopefully we get fights lasting longer than 2 or 3 rounds, cause sometimes those are such a let down.

I think jmm has aged but he still got power and precision and while kats might have a decent chin he does tend to get bruised and bloodied rather easily so I think jmm stops him in the 6 th or 7th on cuts. altho wouldn't mind seeing kats get a defining win, don't think it happens here.

Ward by ud, everytime bika steps up he pretty much gets dominated.

I think abraham kos froch late while down on the cards, you just can't keep using your chin as defense and against a hard puncher like abe that's a bad idea.

Ward UD
JMM TKO
Abraham UD

Michael Katsidis is getting overrated, he's tough little exciting fighter. But this is still the same fighter who had an up and downer vs Graham Earl, and the same fighter who was soundly outboxed by Juan Diaz.

And if Juan Diaz can do it, then JMM certainly will. There's no way Michael Katsidis stops JMM early, he's got too much pride and heart.

And except for a few rough moments here and there, JMM should outbox Michael Katsidis clearly and probably stop him late on.

As for the other fights well Arthur Abraham has a much better defense, and in a shoot out i think its pretty logical to pick the man with the much tighter defense, plus i think Arthur Abraham hits harder so im going with Arthur Abraham by TKO, although wouldn't suprise me if it went the distance as both men are pretty durable.

Andre Ward will have some rough moments vs Sakio Bika, but overall he should get the job done over 12 rounds.

I won't necessarily be rooting for your picks, but I agree with all of them and the logic behind them.

We will get to see Katsidis' face cut and bruised up again. I'm thinking hes got hemophilia like desease or something. That shit aint normal.

Marquez by late round stoppage.
