    Ill take Can, but Warrington has done very well for himself considering he went life and death with a shot to peices Kiko martinez & then somehow bounced back and clearly beat Selby & Frampton, his engine is insane.
    Warrington has become that fighter I never pick against. I backed both Selby and Frampton to beat him. Lost money both times so ain’t going against him again.
    Warrington is one of those fighters who looks beatable but is in reality very difficult to beat IMO.

    Worse one I ever had like that was Badou Jack. Backed Dirrell to beat him, Groves to beat him, backed Jack to beat DeGale, backed Stevenson to beat him and backed Jack to beat Brown and Pascal. Was wrong every single time! I even had him to beat Cleverly on points.

      He’ll win a British UD. 7-5 type fight but Terry O’Connor will have it 118-110.

        Exactly the same scenario with me with Carl Froch.

        Picked Pascal, Taylor, Dirrell, Abraham and Bute to beat him and lost money.

        You were unlucky on a lot of those Badou Jack decisions to be fair. He could easily have won a lot of those loss’s and draws.

        I was ringside for Jack-Groves (Mayweather-Berto undercard), I expected Groves to win that easily.

          I backed Dirrell to beat Froch, I maintain to this day that Dirrell was robbed that night. He was really negative but he definitely outboxed Froch in a lot of those rounds.

          Yeah I thought Groves would have beaten him easily, I don’t think Groves was ever the same fighter after Froch 1. That BS stoppage really killed his aura of invincibility and confidence.

            I think Dirrell blew it, too much falling over and doing nothing allowing rounds to go the other way with nothing going on.

            When he actually let his hands go he totally dominated.

            That’s always been Dirrell’s problem though, very talented guy but mentally he just doesn’t have it. Same thing with Abraham, totally dominated the fight and then the wheels started coming off down the stretch.

            Still think Dirrell beat Froch, but I wouldn’t call it a robbery because he just did way too much stalling and fucking about to have a clear lead in my opinion.

              He’s a perfect example of talent only gets you so far. Had the talent but lacked the intangibles.

              Although I felt he won, I don’t necessarily disagree with you, all he had to do was impose himself more but he was far too negative.

                Maybe. I think we'll see a fight that might be tough to score anyway.
