    They call me "legend" around my way..


    For those who know me here on BoxingScene - I haven't failed.

    And that includes Marquez over Barrera, Diaz over Freitas, and Mayweather over De La Hoya..


    I don't pick fights based on race, personal preference, or gay ****, potna.
    Ive picked them all right too, but I don't consider them to be upsets

      If you are picking winners based on that you have the touch.


      I wouldn't stand a chance without seeing the guys in action a few times..
      I've actually done pretty well with this method too.

        If Im familiar with both of the fighters I am rarely wrong. I picked Hopkins by wide UD too. I put 10k down on Pavlik winning by TKO in the 7th. I said Peter would dominate Toney in the second fight, eventhough Im a huge Toney fan. Picked Diaz to stop Freites in the middle rounds, picked Marquez over Vasquez, and Miranda over Green. I was wrong in the MAB/JMM fight though.

        I was doing good in the pick em thing, but I missed a week so I got eliminated.

          You trying to say these were easy calls????

          There was tremendous opposition against all the guys who won those fights.

          I'd say Diaz was a definite underdog.

          Don't let the fanboys fool you..



          Anyways, you're picking Cotto right?

          As a fanboy, right?

            How so called experts, and hardcore fans could pick Tarver utterly mystified me.


            I swear.. You had to have been a ****ing ****** to pick Tarver.


            I was so angry - I was cursing at the TV when the fight was on..

            ".......Yeah!! Yeah!! Mother****ers........."

            haha me too, Hops made me win 300 bucks that night

              I'm not even kidding when I say that EVERY fight that I've bet on in the past 6 months has turned out in my favor.

              First it was Peter Vs. Toney (against my own heart, I bet with brain)

              Second it was Pacquiao- Morales 3

              Then Cotto-Quintana, Diaz-Freitas, and finally Delahoya-Mayweather.

              Those are all of the fights that I've bet money on. All were with my brother, father, and my best friend. All were wins for me.
