    Good pick em fights I think all 3 could probably go either way.

    I really wouldn't be too surprised if Sprott beat Gerber who I am just not impressed by.
    I think Hernandez should get by Ross and Masternak should have too much youth & speed for the hard hitting Spaniard.

    Sprott for the upset, Hernandez win in a FOTY candidate, Masternak with a good stoppage win.

      Good fight.

      I expect Yoan to win. Cruiserweight division = Rock stars status in Europe.

      I can't see Ross pulling a Braithwaite and catching Yoan right on the temple.

        My predictions are Gerber by decision and Masternak by TKO.

          But Yoan Pablo's a bit chinny and Ross is heavy-handed.
          In other words: Hernandez should win, but Ross has a shot. Can't we say that about the vast majority of championship fights? lol

            Hernandez is not the lineal champ. Thats Ring belt is complete BS just like Garcias Ring belt at 140

              I really like Pablo Hernandez. It is a real shame David Haye and Thomaz Adamek had to leave the CW Division.

              The Division is really really good. If Haye and Adamek stayed they could have had many big fights leading up to the ultimate mega unification of HAYE VS ADAMEK.

                This card has a typical 2PM eastern start time and 5ish pm main event right?

                  I think Hernandez will KO him before the 9th.

                    I don't think people realizes how hard troy Ross can crack, he loads up on every punch he throws and its a sneaky kind of a power as well. I thought Ross was out boxing Cunningham pretty handily before he got thumbed. The only thing i hate is the fact that hes been dangerously inactive since the contender.

                      He's been poorly managed up until now.

                      I hate seeing talented boxers (Boytsov, Wilder, etc) being badly managed.
