Wayne Alexander has pulled out and I don't think they have a replacement yet, but some of the matches have been announced...

Who do you think will win each match-up? I'm going for...

Paul Smith (18-0) versus Jonathan Reid (34-5)
Martin Concepcion (11-3) versus Alfonso Gomez (15-3-2)
Paul Buchanan (8-0-1) versus Jerson Revelo (17-2)
Ross Minter (16-1-1) versus Freddie Curiel (16-6)
Anthony Small (16-0) versus Walter Wright (13-2)

Nigel Wright (17-2) versus TBA (probably either K9 or Brinkley)
TBA versus TBA

I think it will be pretty close, but only see Gomez and Revelo as the likely American winners so far. Even though Buchanan will be fighting in front of his home crowd I just don't think he'll have the confidence to win....he wanted to pull out after finding out he was matched with Revelo and had to be persuaded to stay by his Frank and his trainer!

I've only seen brief highlights of Concepcion but haven't seen any indication that he could beat Gomez.

I agree with those predictions, Wright is good but Small is the best in the tournement, Shame Wayne aint fighting coz he'd KO K9!

Don't flamebait like a child.

I'm disappointed Alexander has pulled out, I like his punching power. I don't know enough to make predictions, though I'm looking forward to seeing Small.
