  • What are your top 3 most anticipated fights of the year ?

    As far as i'm concerned , in order:


    1 - Povetkin VS Klitschko
    I've waited ages for this fight to happen. I don't know if Povetkin will pull an upset , but what i do know , is that this guy has a super solid workrate , great combos & chin , and his resume isn't just padded with cans. Solid professional and amateur career. It should be very interesting...(unless he ends up being intimidated by klitschko) , in this case , it could also turn out to be a boring fight. But i think it's going to be great and one of klitschko's biggest challenge to date.


    2 - Mayweather VS Alvarez
    Here again , an upset seems unlikely but , like Povetkin , not impossible. Saul's defense is amazing imo. And he seems to be a very powerful puncher too. If he's gonna beat Mayweather , it'll be by KO..But if this fight goes the distance , then Mayweather for sure.


    3 - Fury Vs Haye
    Maybe the most predictable fight...I think Haye will probably win by TKO in the mid rounds. But i'm still not counting fury out. You never know. He's a pretty big guy who can take a punch. And he sure knows how to hype a fight. Haye was hesitating against Valuev...And he better not do the same against Fury. Klitschko humbled him..So much so that it seems fury is doing all the sh@ talk now.

    It's hard to tell if fury believes in his own hype or if it's just for the cameras...
    Both of them seem pretty confident though. Fury's reach advantage is pretty big...(bigger than klitschko's). But will it be enough to put Haye in trouble ? or will Haye make a quick work of him ?


    In any case , if Saul , Fury or Povetkin win their fights...I think it's safe to say that all would be major f@cking upsets. (especially for mayweather and klitschko)

                    Bradley-Marquez could be the most interresting one.
                    Mathysse-Garcia should be full of action.
                    Maidana-Broner, just for the possibility that Maidana humbles Broner just a little.

                    I'm still not absolutely sold on Klitschko-Povetkin, as there is little doubt in my mind Klitschko will dominate completely, Mayweather-Alvarez, as I have the feeling that Mayweather is just too fast and too savvy for the hittable Mexican, or Haye-Fury, as I feel Haye should get it easier than the big guy's size should let it imagine...
                    Of course, Pacquiao-Rios will be a barn burner, most probably the best of those. But one has the feeling that we might be witnessing the beginning of the end of one of the greatest fighters of the last generation, and that always has a bit of an after-taste...

                    I wish we could have had Golovkin-Martinez before the end of the year... I guess I'm a dreamer...

                    My two cents...
