Which Big Fight were you totally wrong on..

[Public_Enemy]

Tyson/Holyfield (my dad kept telling me Holyfield would win)
Judah/Tszyu
Cotto/Margarito

[IronDanHamza]

That one surprised me too. At that stage of his career, Pavlik looked like a beast and Hopkins was an old fighter.

I expected what happened.

Pavlik was unproven at the weight and I didn't think he'd handle the jump well.

None really....well there was the ONE time, and maybe...

Three hours and 20 minutes and a long list later:

Ok Ok...

Here are some schmuck ones

a) Lacey Calzighe....never saw that coming

b) Juan ma Salidad x1

and many more

Well, here it goes...

I turned my back on Cotto for "quitting" in the 11th of his fight with Margarito, so when they announced Mosley was next, I automatically thought Margarito would kill Mosley.

Not just cause of the Cotto fight, but because Mosley looked terrible against Mayorga.

Next thing you know, Larry Merchant announced that Margarito was caught red handed with loaded gloves and Margarito goes on to her brutally beaten and stopped by Mosley.

Judah/Tszyu
Cotto/Margarito

Your dad called that one? I am impressed! Seriously NOBODY I knew called that one. I called the Michael Moore victory (first fight) over Holly and I thought I was edgar ****ing Case.... I actually was cringing thinking about what parts of Holly would wind up where when Tyson was finished....The only thing I wasn't worried about was Tyson eating Holly's kids....way too many to do that!

But at the time of that fight I worked with a bunch of die hard boxing fans in new York city...We would pirate the fights at my place haha...And NOBODY thought Holly had a chance in hell.

Oh **** you just reminded me of another buete: I thought Mayorga would beat up De La Hoya....I know I know

In recent fights: Hatton-Tszyu for sure and Pavlik-Hopkins. I thought Hopkins would shut Pavlik out in the first third but that youth would win out in the end. At least I had the first 4 rounds right. :-)

I was a big Tyson fan in the beginning but by the time he fought Frank Bruno he was losing his magic, no longer working off his jab. I thought Holyfield had a real shot at him and I was real excited about the fight.

[Canelo Phresh]

Garcia Matthysse. 10 lowblows and 114 112 I was wrong.

[Locche]

Lewis/Tyson. I hadn't seen Tyson in a while and was expecting the MK1 Tyson to turn up, but he just kind of phoned it in and I spent the whole fight expecting him to deliver an old style combo on Lewis but it never came. He just kind of threw one punch and stopped and grabbed or whatever.

Also, I was one of those people who thought Canelo might have had a chance v Floyd, that was pretty damn wrong wasn't it. Again, seeming like Canelo was phoning it in, but Floyd seems to have that effect on people.

Weight wasn't the issue, the fact that Pavlik wasn't very good was.
