Malinaggie vs Cherry WILL be a great fight. I can garuntee it.

[BigCol]

Cherry generally fights to the level of the opponent he is facing. The guy has a lot of upside...he certainly underachieves in my opinion. I think Cherry has a good shot at outpointing Malignaggi here. It's a toss up, but I'd favor Edner because of his edge in power. He has that headhunting knack though...he wouldn't be smart to do that against Paul.

I can't wait to see Smith/Powell either. That'll be a good scrap. I'm taking Smith by decision...dude has some serious skill.

hm - I disagree. Cherry is a guy to me who has a lot of a downside. He has good fundamentals but his footwork is real slow and I dont see him closing the gap that quick against Paulie and his fast jab. Paulie is the sharper fighter and I think he whips this kid.

Smith/Powell...I haven't seen Smith scrap in a while. The last time I saw him fight was against a tomato can named Patrick Thompson. Just a guy that was paid to take about 200 punches and give Ishe a work out. Ishe is also going to be inactive for a long stretch again. I am taking Powell.

It will be interesting to see who wins as we are both predicting different fighters.

yeah thats it. SHe is the one.

i think so to. something like hermorphidite or something like that. i forget. i know it starts with an "h".its the god that is in love with herself and she keeps looking and admiring herself in a mirror.

maybe it could be the greek god hypocondria, not sure... any greek mythologists out there?(wow i'm asking that on a boxing site).

Aphrodite was the goddess of love and quite vain...but Hera, Zeus' wife was also vain...so it could have been her.

See I have always seen Cherry as the more talented fighter in every one of his fights thus far...he just seems indifferent about fighting sometimes and brings himself down to the level of fighter he's facing. I thought he could have done a job on Quiles and Santa Cruz, but he just disappeared in spots.

Personally I'm just not very impressed with Powell. He seems like he has potential to be a problem, but I'm not seeing it right now. He caught Bundrage cold in their fight (odd ****ing fight too) but that's really about all he has done. Decent win over Robert Frazier too.

The inactivity might show up with Smith, but i'll take the superior technician in this one.

technician is right, smith is smart, he will take what ouma did and break powell down.. i was very disppointed with powell in that one for sure, he showed a lot of flaws, physical and mental

ill take pauli by a wide UD in the other fight, hes just gonna score at will on cherry trying to come inside and though cherry may land a few good shots pauli will rack up his points...

Heh. Sorry Oldgringo...I said I would do it.
