Name a fight you were absolutely wrong about.

Crawford canelo

I figured Crawford would stay in range like he always does giving canelo a chance but actually Crawford was great both inside and at controlling distance for most of the fight

Fury vs Francis. That was something that should have been in a sparring behind closed doors, and while discussing unrelated topics like luxury apartments Florence, Fury embarrassed himself on the world stage.

Fury usyk I thought fury would be too big and have good stamina but usyk stamina is next level


I was wrong picking beter vs bivol but both fights were close so I guess not waaaay off.

A fight that went completely the opposite way for most fans was Anthony Joshua vs. Otto Wallin. Many thought Wallin’s size and unorthodox style could give Joshua trouble, especially since Joshua was trying to regain momentum after losses to Usyk. However, Joshua controlled the fight, landing clean power shots and winning convincingly, showing that he was still a force to be reckoned with despite recent setbacks.

For me it was Wilder vs. Fury II. I was so convinced Wilder would land something big early, and then Fury just steamrolled him. I re-watched it later on fubotv and still couldn’t believe how wrong my prediction was. Funny how certain you can feel before a fight, and then reality just flips everything upside down.

oscar vs pac i thought oscar was gonna win and win easy just too big and too smart for pac

[The Big Dunce]

Jones KO losses to Tarver and Johnson.
Mayorga wins over Mosley
Tim Tszyu losses to Fundora and Murtazaliev
Ruiz stoppage win over Joshua

[Spray_resistant]

Jones KO losses to Tarver and Johnson.
Mayorga wins over Mosley
Tim Tszyu losses to Fundora and Murtazaliev
Ruiz stoppage win over Joshua

Don't feel bad, I don't normally bet but I bet on Michael Walker to beat Mayorga I figured Mayorga had to be totally shot and Walker did okish against Danny Jacobs.

It's easier to name the fights I got right, and this Yarde fight is one of the few I knew I was right on. Yarde took the path of least resistance up to his first title fight against Kovalev playing the ranking game and then we found out that Yarde never spars which was a handful of red flags. If you don't spar how do you get your timing down? How do you know what works and what doesn't? How do you catch the other guys timing? How do you work on defense? How do you maintain your energy? Lot's of red flags. Predictably after round 2 Yarde was gassed and KO'd. Afterwards his trainer Tunde gave a ridiculous interview that made me not even rate him as a trainer.

Afterwards Yarde drops the level of competition down, WAY DOWN, with the only spike ups being losing to Lyndon Arthur then avenging that loss with a KO. Let's be honest: Lyndon's ceiling is European level. Now Yarde jumps up way in class to fight Beterbiev. He losses again by KO.

Once again Yarde fights a handful of "Who the F are they?" guys culminating in a third, unwanted and uncalled for, fight with Lyndon Arthur which he wins. Now he again jumps up in class to fight Benevidez and losses once again by KO.

Do you see the pattern here with Yarde's career? Yarde fights low level comp to his first title fight, loses. Yarde fights low level comp till his second title fight, loses. Yarde again fights low level comp to his third title fight. With no top 10 guys on his resume other then Arthur to give him good fighting experience, it's easy to predict Yarde's third title fight.
