Potential Upsets

[El Kabong]

Cintron and Angulo fought already

....shit, sorry about that. Major brain fart......Angulo is fighting "The Love Child" Joel Julio. That would be an upset and I think it could happen.....of course I have to now

Oh I totally forgot one but it's not really an "upset" because I really rate Glen Johnson but I would not be shocked if Glen Johnson tore up Tavoris Cloud. It would be kind of bitter sweet as Glen Johnson is a true class act but I really like Cloud....but the kid just doesn't BOX enough and he'll be in with a guy who is WAAAAYYY too dangerous to simply rely on your power to overwhelm him. You could see when Cloud fought Clinton Woods that he got busted up a couple times with counters and Woods can't punch like Johnson can.

Bute basically got TKO'd vs Andrade. Andrade IMO gets the majority of his power from tiring out his opponent...I think if Edison pops him good Bute is going to feel it. How many true big time punchers especially ones as aggressive as Miranda has Bute fought?

As for Guinn, Povetkin is either going to have to tire out or trade with Guinn to lose. OR Guinn could FINALLY come out of his "I don't want to hurt anybody" shell...I knew he didn't have the "killer instinct" when he fought Michael Grant and just carried him.....horrible. But make no bones about it DG is a tough cookie, he's never been down, never been stopped, and only been outworked by guys who establish and use the jab effectively or have very solid defense so that's something to think about.

Friday Ahunaya vs David Tua won't be a walk in the park either seeing how Tua isn't active enough to have any fights considered "easy"...could be a good action fight depending on how heavy each fighter is

Lyle, team Miranda should put you on the payroll. No way does a club fighter beat Bute. The guy's got way too much class. Andrade would steamroll Miranda and considering Edison can't stop anything when his power isn't a factor Bute is going to use all 3 holes come fight night. Lube him up!

We saw how smart Guinn isn't when he fought Toney. He had no business losing that fight. He's a natural heavy, has great pop and Toney has nothing to offer in the power department and still James schooled him. Toney could have done that for 24 rounds.

Miranda can punch and I think "even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then" and I think he's got the chance to land on a guy who has been careless enough to get caught by other not so great fighters. Bute damn well better play it safe vs Miranda early. Also Edison isn't above fouling the hell out of Bute to land punches too. If Miranda breaks Bute's jaw (which obviously can happen) like he broke Abraham's I don't see Bute having the success AA did.

I know Guinn is a real long shot but I haven't been impressed by Povetkin. I've seen Povetkin get popped by Eddie Chambers enough to swell his eye shut and I've seen Povetkin gas out in the very same fight and had Eddie thrown ANYTHING in the last 3 rounds Povetkin would have been stopped...he was that tired. And he was ineffective with his attack BUT of course that's against Eddie Chambers' defense so I think he'll land on Guinn but he won't hurt Guinn and pair that with Guinn's power (when he throws) and Povetkin's questionable stamina then you've got a chance at an upset.

The reason why they are called "upsets" is because they are unexpected.
