    After Mayweather vs Ortiz I called for Mayweather vs Maidana because I believed he was the only fighter who wouldn’t mentally fade like most Mayweather opponents. Didn’t predict an upset but I felt vindicated with the tough fight Maidana put up in the first one.

          That's really the only one I can say that I called beforehand.
          I knew you'd make another thread way before it happened...

            That's about as impressive as picking GGG to beat Vanes!

              I'm on record and you can search the forum.

              I called Pac/Bradley 1. Moment I saw the rematch ticket I knew what was going to happen.

              I called Choco/Rungvisai 1 AND 2. Even after peeps attacked me for saying Choco looked out of shape and would get starched.

              I halfway called Pac/Horn. Said repeatedly that Manny would get taken the distance, we'd likely see a repeat of Pac/Bradley 1, and that people would tell him to hang it up after the fight. Exactly what happened.

                  I had Horn beating Pac. I also knew it would be a controversial decision.

                    Fury v Wlad. Just felt Fury was a stylistic nightmare for any version of Wlad, especially a Wlad that was looking his age v Jennings. I thought Wlad's reign was coming to an end anyway and he was about to meet the only HW at the time with the tools to do it.

                    Not sure if Rungvisai v Gonzalez II can be called an upset because of how the first fight was but from watching that first fight, i just felt Rungvisai was all wrong for him and had his number, even if the first fight was close. I always felt it took something out of him and the second fight would be too much for Gonzalez.

                      Hopkins Pascal. Last time I put money on a fight, which I ended up losing because of the bull**** draw, but I couldn't believe Pascal was the favorite going into the first fight, I knew Hopkins was going to mentally break him.
