Upcoming Fights or Fighters You Are Not Excited To See

Post by Ruthless-RKO »

There may be some unpopular opinions here, but that's what they are..
Unpopular.

There may be a lot of fights like Fury-Schwarz, but that's known to everyone. Nearly every decent big name boxer is fighting B/C/D-level opponents.

Any fighters in particular? Maybe they have some sort of hype behind them, big on social media, dull in the ring? Crap ring style?

Shoot! :bag:

Some interesting fights, but nothing very exciting as of yet.

LOL!!! Oops! Tyson/Schwarz. I can't remember a fight I actually had no interest in at all before this one.

The Cw Andrew Tabiti, I’ve seen him fight a couple times and I’m not impressed, a definite lack of aggression. He’s fighting Dorticus though next month which may be good as Doeticus will bring the action.

That fight between Browne and Pascal is something no one should be excited to see.

Unless you enjoy watching Pascal routinely lose more and more brain cells.

And although I don't think he has a fight scheduled at this moment, I don't look forward to any bout involving Kevin Johnson.

Basically for the same reason that I don't want want to see Pascal in the ring.

Andrade/sulecki is a specific one that makes me want to take a nap.

at least it's evenly matched fight between B level fighters. it's much better than Golovkin vs Rolls, A class vs D class type of mismatch.

I would call Andrade borderline A level. He's not that bad.

I have to agree with you. This isn't a bad fight at all. Andrade may dominate? He may not.

You can't say for sure he is going to retain his belt. He may be a favourite, but someones gotta be a favourite.

yeah they're borderline A level, i just said B level because it's a very competitive division, maybe even the strongest right now, being B level when the A level are Golovkin and Canelo is still very good. imo they're #4 and #5 of MW division. at worst it's #6 vs #7 if someone ranks Charlo and Derevyanchenko higher than them.

It's nowhere near evenly matched.

what would be your prediction in a potential Jacobs vs Andrade match-up?

Close fight. What would your prediction be on andrade/rosado? It doesn't work like that.

i know it's not always working, but we'll likely see Sulęcki's version from Jacobs (which was close and could go either way, 114-113 Jacobs was the most accurate result) fight rather than from Rosado fight (and still until the knockdown he looked very good, i had it 79-70 after 8 rounds). I would bet on Sulecki (Jacobs fight version) over Andrade (Culcay fight version). Andrade beaten Culcay (Sulęcki have beaten him too) and Martirosyan 6 years ago. His recent opponents were garbage. Sulecki gonna be his best opponent to date. they have comparable records, Andrade is a southpaw, it's gonna be a problem for Maciek, if not that i would say it's 50/50. Sulęcki's always underestimated, he had to lose to Proksa, to Centeno, a lot of people thought that Culcay will defeat him, Jacobs had to knock him out easily etc. can't wait for this fight.

and my prediction on Andrade-Rosado would be: similar result as in Sulęcki-Rosado, i can imagine Gabe knocking Andrade down. He was already knocked down by Martirosyan and Alantez Fox.

Rosado exposed Sulęcki's lacks in clinching and concentration, i'm sure that he and his trainer are aware of that.

I thought Jacobs won pretty clearly. I expect andrade to school him. Hope you're right, I'm not a Demetrius fan.

to me it was at least as close as Jacobs vs Derevyanchenko and every result from 115-112 Jacobs to 114-113 Sulecki was acceptable.

Charlo is a -275 favorite.

Solid but hardly overwhelming.

I think it's a close fight (closer in appearance than the first one) that Charlo suddenly wins by KO.
