Shame thread: When have you been woefully wrong in your boxing predictions

[VictorCharlie]

I've been wrong more often than I've been right in major fights but I was pretty certain that ODH would beat Paq. Considering the one sided beat down that insued that was probably my worst pick.

[Cressa121]

I picked Abraham to knock out Froch
I thought Valuev might be too big for Haye despite the fact that he's wank
I kept telling anyone that would listen that it was Audley's destiny to knock out Haye - when it became clear he was bricking it on the ring walk but it was too late to backtrack as I was sitting there with my Audley Harrison shirt on...not one of my best moments (though thankfully I think I refrained from posting on here about that fight when I got sucked in and became as delusional as Harrison)
I also though Ward and Dirrell would be too inexperienced to have any success in the Super Six

There's probably more but I can't really remember

Pac v ODH
Pac v Hatton
Pac v Cotto

Became a Pac Fan.

Like others I was convinced that Abraham would decapitate Froch. Er... yeah

In further Super Six related idiocy, I was convinced that Ward would be horribly found out because he had no power (not true) and a dodgy chin (even less true). I thought Kessler would stop him in 7

I actually believed Kevin Mitchell would take Katsidis over 12. I was live at Upton Park to see how off I was with that

I thought Graham Earl would take Amir Khan to some 'dark places'. Only place he took him was the corner as Amir pummelled the shit outta him.

I BELIEVED Librado Andrade would carry on where he left off in the Bute rematch, although he is my favourite fighter so it was more wishful thinking.

I said Lamont Peterson would beat Tim Bradley, although it was closer than the hometown scorecards.

There's probably many, many more, but I can't remember offhand.

I was also pretty sure that Judah was going to knock out Cotto.

Pacquiao-DLH
Pacquiao-Hatton
Pacquiao-Cotto
Pacquiao-Margarito

I'm almost afraid they might announce Pacquio-Klitschko. I'd probably bet on Klitschko and lose also.

I have never been wrong on any of my predictions.

[Violent Demise]

Whenever I make predictions I always give someone a slight nod to win but always credit the other fighter and giving them a chance so that I never have the opportunity to dine on some crow.

In hindsight, I had WAY TOO much confidence in Jermain Taylor. I thought he wasn't finished after the Pavlik losses and predicted he would make some noise in the Super 6. At least I wasn't completely wrong. He did make noise thudding on the canvas during his fights in the tourney.

As did I. Gave him to many chances. He makes a comeback, good chance I'll give him one more

VD's wrong picks will need this thread to have a part 2. Fact.

Still living off that one fluke win, ain't you?

I have never been wrong on any of my predictions.

Fool you predicted 2010 would be the year you finally had sex with a girl. Guess what? We in 2011. Have you had sex with a girl yet? No. You a pimp when it comes to dealing with the boys. But you don't even exist to the girls.

I was also pretty sure that Judah was going to knock out Cotto.

I thought his speed would to much for Cotto. Apparently not.

You're wrong, and your mother will attest to it.

Lacy Calzaghe I thought Joe wouldn't be disciplined enough to stay and box on the outside and he wasn't, but it didn't matter because he just battered Lacy. That was the worst pick I ever made by far.
