  • 2014 fights you picked terribly wrong

    List a fight (or more) that you picked terribly wrong in 2014

    IMO a "terribly wrong pick" would be

    A huge underdog winning a decision or stoppage

    A 50/50 fight ending early by stoppage

    A favorite getting completely outclassed/dropped repeatedly

    Probably more situations

    ---------------

    Mine: I picked Malignaggi over Porter (lol)

          Froch Vs Groves II. I was so sure. Convinced myself.

          To paraphrase a comment I read on here the other day - I didn't pick the fight wrong, he just failed to follow the gameplan that I'd laid out and would have lead him to victory!

          . . . In hindsight though I'm glad. I wouldn't have wanted to see Froch going out like that.

            Same .. I thought even a shot Martinez would be too much.

            Now all of the sudden it's a meaningless win for Cotto ... But that's a whole other story

                I can't think of one off the top of my head. There was no Garcia/Matthysse for me last year. I did pick Martinez, but I also said since the day it was announced that it was very possible Martinez would be shot and lose. I picked Cleverly by a wide decision over Bellew and the opposite happened. I picked Maidana by KO in the rematch but I knew I was just going off the wall for that.

                I had a pretty good year. Besides Cotto/Martinez, I think Brook/Porter was the Garcia/Matthysse of 2014. I got that one right.

                  I had a bad weekend when Khan won, that was the only one I called correctly.

                    three that i can think of off the top of my head:

                    1) martinez/cotto i picked martinez to stop cotto late or win a clear decision.

                    2) i picked provodnikov to stop algieri

                    3) i also picked porter to stop brook late, haha.
