Just to toot my own horn for a quick second, I accurately predicted not only Joey the Phony Calzone's decision win last Saturday, but more proudly, I accurately predicted that he'd "get injured" along the way in order to delay the penciled-in showdown with the true Super Middleweight King, Jeff Lacy
(& by "get injured" I mean "bow down & bow out of the Nov. 5th clash")
so, on to this weekend....what kind of boxing "shenanigans" do you expect in Vegas or elsewhere???
Will the Dibella-promoted Leavander Johnson get robbed vs. the GBP challenger, Jesus Chavez??? I vote YES! It'll be a close fight, but possibly a lop-sided decision win for Chavez....personally, I think it'll rekindle scoring conversations similar to Toney-Jirov
Will GBP poster-boy Barrera need/receive any benefits from the ref or the judges vs. the Goossen-promoted Robbie Peden? I vote NO on this one! Goossen has more pull with officials than Lou Dibella and GBP combined, I wouldn't be shocked to see Peden get the benefit of the doubt from at least 1 judge in the close rounds
Will Sugar Shane Mosley get any GBP love from the officials? It's highly unlikely he'll neep any help vs. Cruz, so I vote NO!
What about JCC Sr??? Will he need some love from Arizona's finest in order to continue the infinite Good-Bye Parade? I vote YES! He already had his management team send Craig Weber home, apparently they found out that Weber can ACTUALLY FIGHT, so they got a last minute softy to replace him.....but is this guy really a softy, just because he's a step below Weber? I vote UPSET in this one, unless it gets to the scorecards, where Bob Arum and JCC will pull some thievery
YOUR THOUGHTS!!!!
