DECEMBER BOXING PREDICTIONS, PART 2

DECEMBER BOXING PREDICTIONS, PART 2

Daniel Geale vs. Jerrod Fletcher
Australians are a pathetic 0-6 on our shores this year, so now two of them will meet back home.  The difference is Fletcher was a "who?" when he took on Jacobs, and did nothing to distinguish himself.  Geale, on the other hand, is a proven commodity outside of his showing against GGG.  Geale by wide decision.
 
Demetrius Andrade vs. Jermell Charlo
I don't know the difference in the Charlos, and cannot tell them apart.  I don't just mean in face.. I mean in style, in ranking, etc.  Other than a letter, it appears as if we have two clones.  I am glad this fight is taking place as it is two undefeated Americans without scintillating styles being matched for a belt.  Doesn't happen often, especially in a hot division like 154.  Andrade is slightly more tested, so I will have to lean that way, but nothing would surprise me here.  Andrade by MD after Charlo starts too slow.
 
Amir Khan vs. Devon Alexander
Finally, this is happening, a year later, and no closer to Mayweather.  Khan still has a very good chance of getting the Floyd fight, but the fact that he is avoiding Brook, a bigger money fight, tells you all you need to know.  Khan is not the strong, speedy mauler that gives Alexander problems (Porter, Bradley, etc.).  However, he is very quick, and offensively gifted.  Alexander is not the puncher at 147 that he was at 140, but it is not necessary to bother Amir.  Alexander has to know he doesn't stand a good chance of getting a decision, and I think that will affect his strategy negatively.  Also, his confidence should be a bit shaken as well.  Khan by 8-4 UD.
 
Timothy Bradley vs. Diego Chaves

DECEMBER BOXIG PREDICTIONS, PART 1

There are many fights in December, but not too many that are competitive, or important.  A lot of no-names.  A lot of stay busy fights.  This would not be objectionable if these men fought 40-5 times a year.  However, many of them...

LIGHTWEIGHT RIVALRIES

There are many definitions of a great rivalry.  Sometimes the most intense part of it takes place outside the ring.  That would have been the case in Ali-Frazier, had not the in-ring drama been unmatchable.  In my own definition, I nee...

NOVEMBER BOXING PREDICTIONS, PART 2

Terrance Crawford vs. Ray Beltran
Beltran is tough, durable, and hungry.  He also has a claim to the lineal WBO title, as he clearly beat Burns before Crawford did.  However, he is getting his title shot against someone I truly believe to be...

BERNARD HOPKINS VS. SERGEY KOVALEV, ANALYSIS

BERNARD HOPKINS VS. SERGEY KOVALEV, ANALYSIS

To go a bit more in-depth about this fight, it should be said that it is one of the best 50/50 fights this year.  It may not be super exciting, but at this point, Hopkins is exciting because of what he is accomplishing, not because of the method...
