Leftylee's 2009 boxing predictions (Feel free to add your own)

OK 2009 is almost upon us.

So I'm going to make a few predictions that I think will happen in 2009.

This time next year they will all be true ;D

Here goes:

David Haye will become HW Champion of the world.
Ricky Hatton will beat Manny Pacquiao.
Floyd Mayweather will return to the ring and face Ricky Hatton in late 2009.
Miguel Cotto will beat Antonio Margarito in the rematch.
Alfredo Angulo will become a world champion.
Carl Froch will lose his WBC title.
Juan Manuel Lopez will stay undefeated through 2009.

Feel free to add your own...;)

Here are a few of mine

Paul Williams will become Jr MW champion (Ring)
Tony beats Cotto by close decision..
Vic Dar will KO Arce
Hatton beats Pac by close decision
Joe Cal Beats Dawson by Unanimous Dec
Gamboa gets KOed
Floyd comes out of retirement and beats whoever he faces in a boring fight
Abraham KOs Pavlik
No change at top of HW landscape.....

Alot of this may be wishing thinking as far as fights happening but.....

Zab Judah will get a payday he doesnt deserve against a top guy.
Vitali will dominate Haye til he gets an injury and has to retire in their fight.
Chis John will not fight anyone of note.
Katsidis will be in the fight of the year.

I didnt realise Haye was going to fight Valuev ;D

cotto stops jennings
pacman stops hatton
vatali klitshko stops haye
luis collazo win berto points
amir khan tastes defeat for the second time

Well I see Vitali and Wladimir continuing to run the heavyweight division.

Valuev will rematch Holyfield, win, and then lose to Chagaev again

Jermain Taylor will be a new man at 168 and a match vs Kessler will start looking better.

Kelly Pavlik and Arthur Abraham will continue to SAY they want to fight each other but never do it

Pacquiao beats Ricky Hatton and Floyd Mayweather Jr comes out of retirement for the megabucks fight with Pac.

Floyd Mayyweather kos Pacman (if they fight)
Paul Williams rules 154
Calzaghe loses
David Haye gets kod
Cotto wins rematch with Margarito (hopefully)
Jermain Taylor beats Kessler (if they fight)
Chad Dawson beats Tarver and Johnson in a rematch
Juanma beats Vasquez

Neither Bute nor Kessler make any meaningful fights.
Floyd stays retired.
Williams gets a points win over Margarito for the second time.
Gamboa gets his first loss.
Kirkland gets stopped late in a fight.
Vitali lands a record number of jabs against Haye en route to a late stoppage.
Jhonny Gonzalez gets 5 more wins that don't really matter.
Montiel gives Donaire a boxing lesson.
Wlad lands a near record number of jabs against Arreola en route to a late stoppage.
Guzman makes weight at 135 for the last time before moving up to 140.
