Just because someone makes a bad prediction doesnt make them a non-expert, most boxing fans go with their heart and the heart is deceptive. There are pro boxers that make horrible predictions of fights based on their heart but i wouldnt say they are not an expert or casual, just human.
    great post

      Nah, that **** head is right more than he is wrong.

      He deserves some respect!!

            picking 6 fights that were all pretty dam easy to pick does not make u some kind of genius homie maybe if u didnt pick the favorite each fight it would be more impressive

              Talk is cheap and the predictions you picked so did I ...they weren't hard.....I had Crawford,frampton,Joshua, and so on , knowing boxing isn't about picking bets....it's about picking the ones who are given no chance....honeyghan over curry, Leonard comebacking and beating margin hagler , Michael spines beating Larry Holmes and Holyfield beating Tyson when he was 25-1 .....all those I picked and I have sneaky feeling Liam smith could be the next shocker over canelo , and all the experts don't comment how much they know...there made by other people who see it

                Easy.... ask them who's the winner of certain fights where one was definitely the loser and they still say that their fighter won.

                example....

                floyd vs manny.
