Thoughts on these fights. Heavily lean to Harrison over Rabchenko. Adonis should win but Williams can punch.

Williams can punch but he's way too wild and open. Stevenson early. Inside 2.

Harrison will beat Rabchenko by clear decision. I can see Williams beating Stevenson, considering father time this is really a 50-50 fight.

I think Harrison definitely beats Rabchenko. Harrison's only loss was a late TKO in a fight he was winning clearly prior to that. Rabchenko was pretty clear by Mundine a few years back. There's every reason to believe Harrison is the better fighter.

Stevenson vs Williams Jr. will be all action while it lasts. Like Saad said Williams is very wide open, and punches wide with a lot of shots. Stevenson is more precise, but being 38 years old (very close to 39) and having not fought any particularly dangerous opponents for quite a while I think there's a good chance Williams is able to catch him with something and take him out. It'll be a firefight while it lasts for sure whoever comes out on top.

Paulie vs Gabriel Bracero? Who the hell is this guy?

I assume you mean Bracero. That would be the guy who did this...incidentally I believe he was subbing for Malignaggi in this fight. Bracero in all likelihood beats the badly faded Paulie Malignaggi

He deserved to get KO'd for those trunks and that manbun.

Bracero is a +400 dog. Interesting.

I'd jump all over those odds with a significant bet. $100 or more

Bracero has brute strength but I question his ring IQ. Paulie may be old and feather fisted but he's still cerebral.

Bracero only has 2 losses, and he fought fairly competitively against Felix Diaz who is obviously an oncoming force. All I know is at those odds I'd roll the dice on Bracero with a significant bet.

I could two potential upsets in both, Williams because he has power and his only way to victory will be to try and bomb out a aging inactive Stevenson and rabchenko coz Harrison has dodgy whiskers and he has good power

I don't understand this line at all. Surely more value to be had still on early rounds.

Paulie will win a Comfortable UD. Don't look too much into that ko. The white guy Bracero Knocked out is no master boxer like Malinaggi and that was a rematch we're Bracero had already figured him out.

Believe me Bracero is no Power puncher this fight is going 10 rounds. Malinaggi has the Speed, height reach and will control distance out boxing bracero Comfortably.

Tony Harrison will destroy this Rabhenko guy got beat by a shot Mundine is all you need to know. Harrison is going to wreck this guy

Yeah almost undoubtedly because these 2 guys only have like 11 knockouts total combined. But betting on an early KO would be a dumb bet.

Malignaggi isn't a Master Boxer. He was a good boxer, I'm not sure he's all that good anymore. He's been past it for quite a while now. Bracero and him are the same age, but I think Bracero has more in the tank. It'll be a competitive matchup I figure.

While we're on this topic, even though its on a different card. What do you guys think about David Allen upsetting Dillian Whyte at +500?

Cannot see that at all he looks crap and too make it worse hasn't been active and got this fight on short notice. If you want easy money stick some money on now nurse to beat Coyle.

Malinaggi is a Master boxer, he is a master of the boxer style. While he is lacking power, Only top level fighters defeat him. If Malinaggi was just a "good boxer" Miguel Cotto would have made Malinaggi quit, Broner wouldn't have had such a hard time, DSG would have legitimately tko' him.
I'll tell you a "good boxer" John Molina.

If you want to flush money down the toilet bet Bracero by KO. Malinaggi outbox Bracero in a 7-3, 8-2.
Two bets
over 9.5, Malinaggi UD

Malinaggi is at the tail end of his career but believe me he has had World class sparring for this fight and is 100% prepared for anything mediocre Bracero will bring to the table.

I haven't been able to watch much boxing bit have been more lately. Will be watching tonight! Don't care who wins as long as I see some good fights!

Well am watching on spike now and through 3 of the first fight pretty uneventful.

Hey I liked that mw fight was a good fight. Let's see the scores..

We got a fight through 2. Williams did go down in rd 1 but he caught Stevenson a couple good times.

Adonis getting hit more than usual and maybe a bit stunned, but still has enough to KO chinny, limited Williams in 4.

Good fight while it lasted

Yea I saw the 1st rd knockdown I said okay I know how this is gonna go. Then after the 2nd I though okay we have a fight. But the. After the 3rd I sensed a feeling it would only be a matter of time.
