    I have a feeling that Gonzalez won't make it out of 2017 with his 0 intact. First he has to get past the iron-chinned power puncher Sor Rungvisai, then if he makes it through that one he'll have to rematch Cuadras or Estrada or take on Inoue or Yafai probably away from home. He's totally cornered by some really formidable opponents

      Rungvisai has the heart but his technique is lacking. I don't know how much of an "upset" it would be if Cuadras beats Gonzalez but the Inoue fight would be very interesting to have as his 49th or 50th.

          Either Mikey or Frampton losing. Bute getting sparked (don't know if that classes as a upset). Joshua losing as well as Thurman. IMO

            Good shout with Mikey. I am sensing a possible upset with that one too, though I have a lot of respect for him as a boxer

                  This fights going to prove if Mikey has still got 'it'. Any short cuts in camp Dejan is going to take advantage he's more than game, I'll never forget when the unknown package whooped Ricky Burns.
                  If Mikey is 100% however I'm expecting all his class to shine through and do the Garcia name some justice.
