    That's why Tunney made the poll because most of them look like mismatches on paper.

    Just pick one.

    Pick Mayweather-Ortiz. I picked that one as well.


    I can't pick because I genuinely can't see an upset in any of those fights.

    You get those fights where on paper it may seem like an upset is possible but these fight's I just can't see it.

          It was close call for me between ortiz vs floyd and gomez vs canelo

          but i picked gomez vs canelo as the best chance of pulling off an upset

          canelo is pretty ordinary so seeing him beat by decision is more likely than floyd to lose by decision or ko.

          i will be rooting for adamek because he is one of my favorite active fighters but i dont give him much of a chance at all to pull off the upset

          barker has no chance

              Gomez vs Alvarez is the clear choice here. For all that Alvarez looks the goods, there's a lot we don't know about him because his level of competition is so low and his last three opponents have shown up to survive, not to win. The only time I've really seen Alvarez tagged was by Jose Cotto, who rocked him despite being severely undersized. Regardless of what happens in the fight, Gomez is going to come to win and throw a lot of punches for as long as it lasts.

              Barker has the least chance of the lot.

                I can't see an upset in any of these fights, so I picked Gomez because Alvarez is the least proven.

                  Dont know about the others but Barker has no chance against Martinez. Really upset about how his career is being mismanaged.
