I think he is wrong except for Mayweather and Taylor. Kessler will prolly lose to Joe. Joe is nice he just hasn't fought anyone. Kessler is nice step in the right direction. Cotto is too inexperienced and slow for Mosley. I see mosley KO him out in a huge fashion focing a Mayweather fight. barrera will lose to Pacman in the same fashion he did the last time. Also Pacman is a much better fighter and is actually using both of his hands now. He just needs to work on that defense and pick and choose when to apply his agression.

Just imagine if Taylor wins another controversial split decision...people are going to be calling for his head on a pike. Poor guy, he better hope he either wins decisively or gets utterly decimated, that way he can at least know where he stands.

Or he could come over to the dark side and have everybody hate him and get paid

I submit my vote for these guys. I think all fights are brilliant and you have to love the promoters and managers for allowing the public to view greatness at a display. All these fights will go to the later rounds but here is my assessment with each fight.

Mayweather via 12 round decision Reason: Hatton can't keep up with Mayweather's legs & he will pot shot him from the outside.

Joe Cal via 12 round decision Reason: Kessler is a good fighter but never been in the ring with a great fighter. Joe Cal will take him to school.

Cotto via 12 round decision Reason: Shane is on his last legs in boxing he is dangerous and powerful advisary but a shell of what he did earlier in his career. The young lion will out muscle and outwill Shane on this night.

Manny Pac via 9 round KO Reason: Manny will continue to dominate Barrerra like he did 4 years ago. He will be too much for the ageing Mexican Warrior.

Taylor via 9 round KO Reason: Pavlik looked great against Miranda who has little boxing skills. Up until now Pavlik hasn't fought any competition worthy of his talent. Taylor looked subpar fighting 3 southpaws with boxing skills. In the end Taylor will shine as the his experience with great opposition will take him to the next level.

I call it as I see it. Peace
