Rico is a nice guy and he always was. Rico is also a strong guy who is mentally tough he always was. But Rico is pillow fisted he lacks one punch KO power and it showed during his Glory days and thats why he was a decision monster who was unfairly critized.
Mark my words Rico will not be successful in his next boxing fight. Every boxer with a bit of sense should jump on that opportunity and repeat what AJ did against Ngannou while Rico is believed to be an elite Heavyweight now and Ngannou was even more known for having an Iron chin before AJ stopped him in quick fashion.
The like of Itauma, DDD or even guys like Opetaia and Benavidez should really grab that golden ticket and use the hype. All of them will put a demolishion job on him and can claim we did what Usyk couldnt.
Usyk weighed 233... He must have been eating the same buffet that Fury ate at before his Ngganou fight....
Sanchez as the underdog got me thinking about using a x3 but his inactivity scared me off even though Torrez is inexperienced with a limited resume. That should have been an easy multiplier pick... I think only a couple picked him...
Maybe Hrgovic should have taken the IBF eliminator with Sanchez but instead he turned it down for the Turki money against a domestic level fighter. Here we are again...
I had to roll the dice & changed my Adames pick to Williams with a multiplier. I only care about finishing 1st. The year end overall is a participation award & means nothing. Needed an upset...
This Pero guy has moved so slow I forgot about him. He was highly ranked by the WBA at one point. At 33 he is more likely going to look like Jorge Luis Gonzalez than Luis Ortiz...
Lopez, KO, Late
Cacace, DEC, Close
Barboza, DEC, Close x5
Masuda, DEC, Clear
Iwata, KO, Late
Good call on Barboza. I used x2 but considered x5... Well those silk sheets I been sleeping on since becoming a champion might have made me cut corners in my boxrec training... I will need to get a new team together (get back to smoking dope it's been 6 months)...
Boxrec is a tool, not an oracle - chin up mate - oh, on 2nd thoughts maybe not the best encouragement when it comes to boxing
Once you are on top of the Pick'Em mountain It's tough to keep them Boxrec skills sharp when you sleep with silk sheets....
...cos when i got banned from badlefthook as RingoKid wayyy back in the day, i started up here as Pollywog, but was also Ringo on BN24, so for consistency sake i re-registered here not that long ago as Ringo too, and retired Polllywog as undisputed, undefeated, grand unified heavyweight Oilskin fan champion of the world!
No alt conspiracies, just expedience...
I never thought it was an alt but I could tell it sounded like Pollywog...
