So for the record, Id like to go down early on a few predictions 'ere it blows up again.
Hatton UD Paulie
Hatton too rough and tumble for Malignaggi, despite massive critique about him being shot, he owns Paulie this fight. There's only one Ricky Hatton. Don't forget it. ;)
Vitali TKO Sam Peter
After what Jameel showed us with Sam, I see Vitali taking the first 5 rounds working out the rust, then blasting Sam ala Danny Williams. Vitali is too strong, too tall and hits too feckin hard for Sam to weather more than 8 rounds.
Pacquaio TKO De la Hoya
I know Ill catch some chit for this, but Im sorry, this is truth. Oscar..is..going...to...get...shredded...inside 9. Don't get me wrong, he'll make it competetive for a few rounds, then God help him Manny is going to light that ass up. This fight was a bad bad move for Oscar if he's wanting to retire on a big win.
Pavlik MD Hopkins
This will be an ugly one with Hopkins winning the hearts and minds of his faithful by being just dirty and skilled enough to make it close. The younger, stronger Kelly will outhustle and land the more meaningful shots. Dont be suprised to see Bernard winning the early rounds til Kelly's warm.
Roy Jones SD Joe Calzaghe
Much as I hate to see that 0 go (big Calzaghe fan), Joe would have been better off fighting Kelly than Roy. Roy absolutely still has what it takes to dance with Joe and pull out a win here. If I fail at any one of these predictions , it will be this one. Not because Roy can't win, but if it's the Roy that showed up for his rematch with Tarver, this one's all Joe.
What a great fall lineup. Please refer to this list and remember I was right on all of them. :)
