2454254, OKBoxiniados: what was the last fight where you didn't know going in?
Posted by PG, Tue Jun-09-15 06:01 PM
I'm going to say for me it was probably Provodnikov vs Matthysse maybe Peterson vs Garcia.. but I think I was probably just fooling myself based on personal bias.
I knew Canelo Kirkland would be good but pretty much anybody who knows the two would've seen that play out pretty much as it did.. Kirkland with just above a punchers chance and hoping that Canelo get's emotional and macho with it.. lol yeah nope. same thing will and does happen in ever triple G fight too.
Actually that Berto vs The Ghost fight I really didn't see that coming I thought it would be competitive but never imagined that Berto would take it so decisively.

2454260, really? naw I could smell that one.

it was too obvious that Pac had faded over time and Floyd had not..
I wouldn't say I was 100% on it but I had very little doubt.. maybe a little hope, but very little doubt.

>not..
Because Floyd is actually a shell of himself, has
probably faded overall as much as Pac has physically
Difference is that Floyd is a smarter, more technical
fighter, and so it can mask his physical deficiencies

2454261, Ward vs Kessler
Posted by Lach, Tue Jun-09-15 07:15 PM
That was when I learned that Ward was special.
|
2454315, you know I doubted on him through the whole super 6
Posted by PG, Tue Jun-09-15 08:48 PM
I still have unreasonable reservations... I oughta just suck it up and give him his due by now. He is something special.

I was predicting a clinic from BHop or a KO from Kovalev and got a clinic from Kovalev.

2454940, B-Hop is 50 and Kovalev hates niggers
