Fights that you got wrong (British & Irish version)

[Crease]

Well gentlemen, let's have it...

[Crease]

One that I got tremendously wrong was the unification fight between Haye and Maccarinelli... I picked Enzo to knock him out!
What Haye did to him was cold...

[Crease]

I also thought that Ricky had a solid chance at getting at Floyd...
In retrospect, think it was a combination of favouritism and my dislike for Floyd taking over...

Froch-Groves 2
Calzaghe-Lacy
Bruno-Tyson 2 (though the ringwalk was a clue)
Mason-Lewis
Francis-Reid

Benn-McClellan

[Counter-puncher]

i've got plenty wrong, thoguh i am sure there is a good excuse for all of them

picking Haye to massacre Bellew was probably a particular low point, though

[bennie]

picking Haye to massacre Bellew was probably a particular low point, though

I remember Haye tagging Bellew with a big right in the rematch and Bellew shrugging his shoulders to say 'that didn't hurt'. Haye should have jumped on Bellew but instead he also shrugged his shoulders.

Benn-McClellan

I gave Benn 2 rounds maximum with The Gman before he got put to sleep
Picked Golota over Lewis

I thought Haye would win in the first fight too.

Always had it in the back of my mind Benn could swing a haymaker while rocked himself and pull it off (though when I saw footage of G-Man training at Peacock with lats wider than a cruiserweights I was like ‘okay, f-uck’). I didn’t expect what occurred - he (Nigel) was awesome. You saw shock on McClellan’s face in R2.

Speaking of Lennox - I gave David Tua a serious chance at dethroning him...

[Ruthless-RKO]

Bellew tactics. He did that against Usyk too..

Clearly hurt, but just shrugs his shoulders.

[Monte Fisto]

I fully expected Klit to beat Fury. I couldn’t get the Cunningham fight out my mind and thought that across the 12 Wlad would eventually land a big one.

Hopkinson Vargas
McClellan Benn
Nelson - DeLeon / Warring
Hamed - Barrera
Carruth - Hernandez

Frotch Groves 2
Maybe I was just willing George to win, heart over head.

Whyte Joshua
Thought Dillion had the experience over Joshua at the time. AJ was a beast, but Whyte was very tough and keen enough to bring it to Joshua, who had been bullying his way up.

Wlad Fury
Fury just hadn't boxed at that level before, he had shown us nothing like that before, and of course somehow got in Wlad's head

I’m with you on froch vs groves 2, I thought it would be tight but defo thought groves showed enough in first fight to win the second. I made the error of going to the second fight and being Devastated with the KO, the fight was warming up nicely and I thought George was doing well.

[margaret thatcher]

there was an absolute pumping haye bandwagon for the wlad fight who were sure he was demolishing the big stiff dosser

[lefthook82]

Aj v Usyk

I thought AJ was going to send him to the shadow realm and couldn't believe all the people picking Usyk.

I lost a good bit of money as well backing that opinion.

[Ruthless-RKO]

Haye is arguably the best salesman in British boxing..

He made everyone believe and then he is British after all.

[vidal]

I rarely call it right. I was absolutely convinced Groves would beat Froch in their second fight. I just could not see how Froch could win unless he caught him clean........ and he caught him clean, so.....

Price v Thompson 1 and 2
Haye v Bellew 1 and most certainly 2
Hatton v Senchenko, I think we all expected Ricky to win that
Hatton v Floyd, for some misguided reason, I thought Ricky would be all over him
McGuigan v Cruz

Christ, there's loads, I'm f*cking sh*t

[Ruthless-RKO]

Hatton v Floyd, for some misguided reason, I thought Ricky would be all over him

Christ, there's loads, I'm f*cking sh*t

Don't be too hard on yourself on that one..

Ref didn't allow him to get close.

too late, I stabbed myself in the leg with a fork

Yep same , and watched it in a pub full of Kiwis/Maoris in Australia.

[Old bones Ian]

Honeyghan to have a good shot at Breland , thought he'd out tough Breland and catch him late on.

[Old bones Ian]

Pele Reid to walk through Julius Francis , and then Danny Williams to walk through Julius Francis
