Wow! I’ve had a shocker! Massive props @Big J . At least I don’t have to worry about getting next round’s picks in early!

Getting in nice an early, it worked for the 1st round
Thanks Primo Carnera
I got lucky, I got the Shigeoka KO & the lone Conway underdog
The easy part is done
Holding onto the top spot is the challenge

Round 2 picks

Hayato Tsutsumi UD, Israel Rodriguez Picazo UD, Aaron Silva KO4, Janibek Alimkhanuly KO10, Keyshawn Davis KO9, Milan Prat SD, Angel Ayala Lardizabal UD, Tim Tszyu UD
Tsutsumi looks a real talent
Picazo has a chin & power, Escobar might be in for a shock
Silva also looks very talented
Alimkhanuly might be the best current middleweight, a very underwhelming unification fight
Davis is the business
Prat looks better, I just worry about the German judges
Lardizabal could be catching Alvarado at the right time & weight
Tszyu will be weary of Mendoza’s power but should dominate

Whoa... a bit heavy on British fighters. I'll have to brush up on them.

Ok, so the commentary's working good for Big J... so I'm gonna continue giving it a go.

Batyrgaziev by UD - A star in the making, but facing a seasoned pro in Luces.
Seitz by TKO-6 - Steve's first time in Germany will be a short one.
Braithwaite by UD - No draw this time around.
Chamberlain by TKO-9 - Lawal lumbers around too much. Isaac is slicker and will get to him late.
Greene by TKO-10 - Not too impressed with videos of Gilley.
McGrail by UD - Mendoza's durable, but McGrail will thoroughly outbox him.
Fiaz by UD - Bellotti's dangerous, but Fiaz will outbox him for the win.
Catterall by TKO-11 - Linares is little more than a name by now.
Rocha by UD - Rocha clearly superior.
