BoxRec

Lara v Williams
Groves v Froch 1

ones that have hurt my pocket.

Selby was gonna box the fornicate out of warrington

Groves v Froch 2. remember I had a double on Groves to win on points and degale to get beat of that unbeaten american who was trained by Virgil Hunter. Cant remember his name but he was utter shite, even degale sparked him and he never boxed again

Price v Thompson - both times

I picked Khan to beat Canelo

What were you smokin' that day?

Fenech vs Nelson. The rematch.

Seemed like a sure thing for Fenech.. Especially with the bout being held in Australia.

After whipping Nelson handily but only getting a draw in the original, Fenech figured to pound Nelson hard in his homeland.

Tough guy Fenech was an 8-1 favorite.

But Nelson effortlessly demonstrated why he was dubbed The Professor.

I had GBP 500 on Floyd to beat Hatton on points.

I remember picking Tszyu over Hatton.

I was right there with you on that one. Tszyu looked unstoppable at that time

Lloyd Honeyghan beating Donald Curry was a shocker but not Douglas beating Tyson. Douglas looked in fantastic shape leading up to the fight and in the heavyweights anything can happen. Still, I favoured Tyson 60/40.

The worst was Klitschko v Fury, a fight I looked forward to for years. Logically there was no way 'a bum' like Fury could win. Sure he'd improved going into the fight but this was Wladimir Klitschko, 'Dr Steelhammer' against the light punching Fury. Still not sure what happened to Klitschko, but I never liked the stiff stoic tight lipped approach of Klitschko in the build up. I just don't think that works in boxing.

Yes !

Lacy over calzaghe

Oscar over Manny

A fun thread, and I'm sure many of us could list many fights here. Some that spring to mind for me:

De La Hoya vs Manny
Haye vs Wlad
Haye vs Bellew 1 & 2
Khan vs Barerra
Wlad vs Fury
Wilder vs Fury

Degale vs Eubank this weekend

I forgot to mention Kovalev vs. Hopkins. I expected 50/50 type of fight.

I thought Erik Morales would defeat Manny Pacquiao in their 2006 rematch. Pacman won via a 10th round TKO. I was in attendance.

a lot picked hopkins

after kov lost some fights there was this stuff about him being a hugely overrated hypejob and ppl saying 'lol and ppl thought he was unbeatable' etc......but i looked back and a lot of ppl had picked even really old hop to beat him and were saying he was just a limited slugger. thats not a massively overrated and hyped fighter. an espn media poll of 25-30 'experts' even had hopkins favoured.

ppl also talked like ggg would destroy him in a real match and that he wouldnt win a round vs ward. also a lot picked cleverly to beat him too.

i thought carl froch is a local fighter
with no business at world level.

easy to make that mistake at first, he could really look limited and mediocre to the eye at times, but he had great intangibles, fitness, and an akward effectivness with his boxing
