by David P. Greisman - “Back to the Future Part II” came out in 1989 and looked 26 years into the future, showing the year 2015 and technology that included flying cars.
It is now 2015. There are no flying cars.
If that brings you down, then it’s time for you to look up. Not literally, as you still won’t see any automobiles overhead.
Rather, look up figuratively because I’m better than screenwriters Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale when it comes to predicting the future — at least in the world of boxing. Forget Michael J. Fox. My predictions are locks. My crystal ball tells all. It’s shown me the events to come during the 12 months of 2015. Consider yourselves forewarned:
Shannon Briggs has a quiet day.
Teddy Atlas, fresh off a year in which he sang Harry Nilsson’s “Coconut,” begins the new season of ESPN2’s “Friday Night Fights” with a riveting performance of Harry Belafonte’s “Day-O (The Banana Boat Song).”
As part of the continuing negotiations regarding the biggest fight in the sport of boxing, Floyd Mayweather Jr. demands that Manny Pacquiao’s mother also undergo random drug testing.
105-pound contender Knockout CP Freshmart wins on the scorecards, moves to 10-0 with 5 KOs. This becomes significant later in the year.
