    The ones that stood out the most to me as wrong when I was so sure:

    Donaire-Rigondeaux
    Garcia-Kahn
    Pac-Marquez 3 - Didn't think this one would be close this time around (still picked Pac)
    Pac-Marquez 4 - Was looking good 'til Pac ran into a punch with his hands down
    Garcia-Matthysse
    Dawson-Stevenson- No one saw that coming
    Pac-Bradley- I thought I got it right but Arum is crooked
    Hopkins-Calzaghe- Picked BHOP and thought he won
    this fight baffles me on why so many people thought lucas was going to kill Garcia... he lost to zab Judah & devon alexander...zab doesn't beat any of the elite fighters but he is a solid fighter at 140-147. if you can't beat Judah then you are not elite. i was one of the few that picked Garcia to win...

      DLH vs Manny- thought DLH was too big too strong
      Cotto vs Manny- see DLH
      Mosely vs Margarito- thought Mosely was done
      Lee vs JCC Jr- didn't think JCC could beat anything better than a can

          Dead wrong as in nothing I thought would happen happened?

          Cause I was dead wrong about Matthysse - Garcia, but everything I predicted to happen happened... The only thing I didn't take into account (as no one did, or possibly could) was the eye swelling, which was the be all end all of the fight

          I mean, a fight where I did all the research I could, predicted it to go one way and was dead wrong... Berto - Ortiz, I didn't think that highly of Berto, but Ortiz just had a draw with Lamont Peterson, and you could just tell his heart wasn't in boxing, so how could he beat Berto? By learning a lesson fighting on the inside like he's suppose to... Stop trying to be this boxer puncher that he's not... Didn't see that coming, and he picked the absolute right time to do it

              Let's see ....lately it was Wlad-Povetkin. I went with the upset. I posted that the holding would be extreme and obvious... so obvious that the ref would have no choice but to warn one of both of the fighters...which would have opened up the action. yeeah that didnt happen

              Floyd-Guerrero, thought it would be more competitive.

              Bradley-JMM, thought Tim would make more mistakes that he did. Of course i wanted a war, but Tim was solid regardless...when i added up my score I was surprised i had it 115-113 JMM.... TIm's performance as a whole was an eye opener imo. Never know which version will show up

                    You know, I really didn't think that either, but when I saw Top Rank was quick to finalize the deal with DiBella, I got a sick feeling. I was a big fan of Lee, but knew that Uncle Bob wouldn't have made that fight unless his matchmakers were confident of Chavez beating Andy.

                    I actually didn't watch the fight on purpose, so I wasn't surprised when I saw the result on Twitter.

                      Marquez stunk up the place too cry baby.
