View Full Version : Impressed with Prediction from Infamouz
Colonel Jones 12-01-2004, 12:05 AM Reading some predictions after the fact, i was pretty damn impressed with "Imfamous's" prediction of the Morales-Barrera fight. Speaking of boxing pundits, who do you think is some of the most knowledgable "experts" out there? Kellerman? Manny Stewart? Lampley?...
mr. bojangles 12-01-2004, 01:04 AM Bull's eye!!! Infamouz got that one right. Impressive indeed.
FUBAR 12-01-2004, 01:27 AM Teddy Atlas has the most knowledge. He ****s on any of those other bozo's.

But speaking of pundits, right before the second Vernon Forrest-Ricardo Mayorga fight, THE RING (magazine) got together 20 experts and asked them for their individual take. 16 went for Forrest, only 4 gave it to Mayorga.
The experts list included:
Pro Forrest: (The ones who got it wrong)
Manny Steward (Hall of Fame trainer!)
Sugar Ray Leonard (Who doesn't know him?!)
Jim Lampley (HBO)
Arturo Gatti (Who doesn't know him?)
Eric Bottjer (C. Kushner matchmaker!)
Buddy McGirt (former championship caliber fighter and now award-winning trainer!)
Kermit Cintron (Welterweight)
Vivian Harris (Jr. Welter)
Antonio Diaz (Welterweight)
Anthony Thompson (Welterweight)
Max Kellerman (ESPN)
Dan Rafael (USA Today)
Tim Smith (New York Daily News)
Calvin Watkins (Dallas Morning News)
Cameron Dunkin (Manager of Fighters)
Carlos Arias (Orange County Register)
Pro Mayorga: (Those who got it right)
Victor Bague (Producer of Telefutura Solo Boxeo)
Ricardo Jimenez (Hispanic PR of Top Rank and former sports ed of La Opinion)
Calvin Watkins (Dallas Morning News)
Demarcus Corley (Jr. Welter)
+ Two hispanic "experts" (Carlos Arias and Antonio Diaz) thought Forrest would win; the two others (Bague and Jimenez) went for Mayorga.
+ Two non-hispanics (Chop Chop and Watkins) also voted for Mayorga.
We all know how that fight went... :rolleyes:
So much for those named experts...I'll take Infamouz from here on!!! ;) :D
Champoreeno 12-01-2004, 09:35 AM Given the amount of predictions -- many fringing on the ridiculous -- Infamouz makes, he's bound to get one right every now and then - Laws of averages had to give way eventually. That is to say: Not all that impressed here.
BiggestBoxingFanEver 12-01-2004, 09:45 AM I second Atlas. He is always on point. One example is he did overviews on the US's boxing team before the games started and was on point with everything, even saying that out of all the hopefuls that Ward had the best chance at gold.
P@pasmurf 12-01-2004, 11:43 AM i personally think lampley is a moron. I cant stand that guy.

There's getting it right, and getting it perfect. I'm impressed

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
I second Teddy Atlas as the most knowledgeable commentator followed by Max Kellerman. I put those Shotime idiots at the bottom of the list.
Bombardier 12-01-2004, 12:31 PM I know some people like Lederman but his scored are always way way off to the way I see and to the way it's usually scored. I remember he had Leija losing in the undercard fight before Gatti-Dorin. Him and Merchant pick who they like...which usually means they root against the black guy.
JaNnO 12-01-2004, 11:17 PM wow...infamouz hit it right on the head! excellent!!!
