OK, got a few interesting ones coming up over the next couple of months...what's your pick??

Eamonn Magee v Mehrdud Takaloo
Marco Antonio Barrera v Rocky Juarez
Carl Froch v Brian Magee
Jose Luis Castillo v Diego Corrales
Antonio Tarver v Bernard Hopkins
Miguel Angel Cotto v Paul Malignaggi
Jermain Taylor v Ronald Wright
David Haye v Ismail Abdoul

IMO

Magee KO 6 (Still got ko power and Tak has suspect chin)
Barrera UD (Will be a tough one but MAB has too much class)
Froch KO 7 (Magee is washed up and the cobra is hungry)
Castillo KO 8 (Spills and thrills like the first two but Castillo prevails)
Tarver UD (Too big and strong for the slightly over the hill B-Hop)
Cotto KO 3 (Sparring session for Cotto)
Taylor by SD (Razor sharp win over the defensive master)
Haye KO 2 (Abdoul has lost 10...won't stand up to the power)

Barrera's going to use his veteran skills to beat Juarez on points. Cotto will shut Malinaggi's fat mouth. Castillo grinds down Corrales & then destroys every light welter on the planet. Hopkins makes Tarver look foolish, w12. taylor surprises winky with his repertoire and athleticism, making him feel what it's like to be a middleweight.

Eamonn Magee v Mehrdud Takaloo- Magee UD. Too slick for Tak

Marco Antonio Barrera v Rocky Juarez- MAB UD. Like you said, too much class

Carl Froch v Brian Magee- Froch late stoppage or UD. Just can't see Magee winning this one

Jose Luis Castillo v Diego Corrales- Castillo KO. The first fight ruined Chico IMO

Antonio Tarver v Bernard Hopkins- Not sure on this one. Hopefully B-Hop KO. Highly unlikely I know, but I just hate Tarver with unbridled passion!

Miguel Angel Cotto v Paul Malignaggi- Cotto UD. I just see Malignaggi getting on his bike all night.

Jermain Taylor v Ronald Wright- Battle of the jabs, but its Taylor for me. I think he gets a bad press over thr Hopkins fights, but he fought on level terms with a future HOF fighter, and I think he'll be too strong, athletic for Winky.

David Haye v Ismail Abdoul- Hayeby KO within 3 rounds.
