    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.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    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.

    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

    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 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.
