If you go to the prediction boards you'll see I changed my pick last night.

I was watching the Sidorenko fights I have and I tried to find videos on Moreno. I found a couple but all were highlights of some of his fights. But even with those highlights it was clear for me to see that Sidorenko would loose.

For starters Sidorenkos drawn twice vs. the lanky "southpaw" Ricardo Cordoba. Who troubled Sidorenko in both fights and the only reason he lost IMO was because Cordoba would let Sidorenko lead. Instead of him taking the initiative.
Which then I started seeing the Moreno footage I found and guess what?
He's a lanky "southpaw" very similar to Ricardo Cordoba BUT he'd an aggressive fighter who boxes superbly and I not only that but I was readin that he's part of a Panamanian stable that is said to have some very bright/special fighters that look like they can capture a title.

After seeing all of this yesterday I made up my mind and said Moreno would beat Sidorenko. I was convinced that since the fight was taking place in Germany and Sidorenko being German that the judges would for 1 reason or another have it MD for Moreno.

Look out for this kid Anselmo Moreno with some good guidance and a couple of adjustments in his style I think he can be something special.
bore on mick, bore on
Fuck off you Aston Villa fan...
Yours just misserable...

Doesn't shock me to hear Sidorenko lose though, he's not a dominant guy but I didn't pick him cause didn't know anything about Moreno.
Did you see the fight Mick? Seems like a pretty clear decision.
I saw the fight this morning... Pretty one sided if I must say so.
Moreno was in control throught the whole fight and his reach was key for him. Sidorenko looked tired out by the late rounds he was being aggressive but Moreno made him miss and Moreno did so well with that.

Anyhow, I think I'm with a sizable proportion of folks who'd never heard of Moreno and certainly had never seen him fight. Maybe if I researched my picks more I'd be closer to Mick than I am to the bottom and/or BoxingGorrilla.
Pretty much...
