    think with mayweather is the only fighter i've been completely wrong twice, vs mosley and guerrero

    but i seriously think it had more to do with the way those guys came in, rather than mayweather, shocking difference, although with guerrero after paying a little more attention i was realising he really fancied himself a boxer and wouldn't go after anyone unless he feels he can hurt them, but i thought, nah they couldn't be ******ed enough to box floyd, guy has crazy stamina, iron chin and is good enough on the inside, i was hopeful because of that berto fight, he turned out to be the worst with just a plain ******ed gameplan

    mosley just got old as dirt

      Gennedy Golovkin. He keeps going up against the toughest fighters nobody has ever heard of and finds a way to win somehow.

        For me it's Danny Garcia. After the first Morales fight I picked him to lose every time and made me a believer after that Matthysse fight.

          Sergio Martinez maybe? no amateur experience, didn't start boxing until in early 20's.

          Also Keith Thurman for me.

              I have to mention Duran, he proved me wrong, time and time again for almost 2 decades. I thought Leonard would have enough to outbox him, went in with the wrong game plan and gave Duran his most iconic win. Then, when the rematch happened, I expected Duran to do a number but Leonard came out and completely blitzed him with speed, he clowned the toughest man to ever step into a ring at lightweight/welterweight.

              Then I thought he was done and predicted against him when he faced Moore and then I did it again against Moore's good friend Barkley. Both times I was disappointed but happy to be disappointed.

              In more recent times, I'd name Tyson...I predicted him to win many fights that he lost, Douglas and Holyfield the prime examples. That fight in Tokyo is, in my opinion, the greatest upset in boxing history, forget Ali/Foreman. What Buster Douglas did that night was unbelievable.

                  Danny Garcia never ceases to surprise me. It's like seeing a Prius win drag races

                      This is sarcastic but when he beats Sergio and unifies he will have literally proven doubters like you wrong
