      Graham Houston seems to agree with you. Here's what he thinks:

      I am expecting another close fight, with little in it at the finish. Another draw seems a possibility.

      Griffin is a strong, durable, capable fighter with good hand speed and he seems to be the pleasant sort of young man that one likes to see do well for himself. He has been looking very confident and I would not be in the least surprised if Griffin were to win.

      I do think, though, that Sturm can box a bit better than he did in the first fight. It is possible that Sturm didn’t expect quite such a stern challenge from Griffin last time. I think his mind will be much more concentrated for the rematch. I will go with Sturm to be a bit busier this time and box his way to a narrow win on points.

          Houston I believe picked another home-based fighter in Miranda to defeat the foreigner in Arthur. I love him to death but I hope he's wrong for a second time in a row cause I got money on Griffin.

          Also, about Torres vs Holt. Abraham wins controversially in Germany comes to America and wins without any controversy. Torres wins controversially in Columbia and now he's fighting somebody whose chin might not be all that.

          I am just justifying my bets lol

            Houston did actually go for AA (on points):

            In my ESPN preview I went for Abraham to win on points. Despite Miranda looking in frighteningly good physical condition this week, the opinion is unchanged.

            I would be astonished if Abraham managed to stop Miranda — if the fight ends early, the Colombian will almost certainly be the winner — but I think that the German fighter can outmanoeuvre and outpoint his very dangerous opponent.

            This, however, looks like an incredibly risky fight for Abraham to be taking.

            They say that he who dares, wins. Abraham has done the daring part — the winning will be trickier.

              Sturm is the better boxer and so should win a decision today.

              However, I'm hoping he wins by KO so the crybabies won't be whining about European judging.

              I'm still hoping we find a stream for this fight...

                      The Hungarian Hitter Karoly Balzsay already knocked out his opponent.

                      Basically Joe Calzaghe moved up in weight to avoid fighting him.
