boxing prediction challenge: season three

[TIC]

there will be a -2 point penalty added from this season if the player leading enters their picks late. the cut off point for the current leader will be midnight each wednesday (uk time). i will mention the current leader each week when i post the next weeks fights to get their picks in early & try to mention them again about twenty four hours before the cut off point

Round 1 picks

Masood Abdulah UD, Hopey Price UD, Kieron Conway UD, Leigh Wood UD, Haro Matevosyan UD, Osleys Iglesias KO2, Gilberto Ramirez KO11, Ginjiro Shigeoka KO5, Petchmanee CP Freshmart UD, Tomoki Kameda KO8
Abdulah might be biting off more than he can chew
Price by wide schooling
Is Conway the upset? I’m not so sure
Wood can box or bang, it’ll be smarter if he boxes
Matevosyan seems like a good boxer
Iglesias is a hidden gem
Ramirez is too big but not much better
Ginjiro wins his 1st championship title
Freshmart prevents his brother from doing the same
Kameda is on his way to a title shot at 126

Good luck to you all

[TitoFan]

I'm gonna follow your lead with the comments, Big J.

A tough Week 1... but I'll take a crack at it.

Abdulah by UD - (Leach is slick, but has been inactive. Abdulah has the talent.)
Price by UD - (Should be easy work for him.)
Udofia by SD - (Tough one to pick... but Udofia should pull it out.)
Wood by UD - (Should be very close.)
Matevosyan by UD - (Haro should be busier, and he's home.)
Iglesias by TKO-3 - (Reis won't be able to keep him off of him.)
Ramirez by UD - (Joe's durable, but Zurdo has more skills.)
G. Shigeoka by TKO-9 - (Valladares can hang, but gets stopped late.)
CP Freshmart by UD - (Who calls their kid Freshmart??)
Kameda by UD - (Dlamini will give him all he can handle, but will lose decision at home.)
