If they switched zab/paulie with broner/maidana this fight is probably on ppv.


The only fight easy to pick is Alexander-Porter. I'll be rooting for porter, because i always like the underdog. plus, i like porter's aggressive style. I keep hoping porter can mimic what bradley did, as most people also thought bradley was less talented than alexander. but sadly... i don't think porter is anywhere near the level bradley was when he fought devon...


dirrel-bika interests me. we'll find out if bika can solidy himself as champion at 168. for dirrell, he's just a big mystery. he's not as slick as his brother and his main game is his power. he hasn't fought anyone to note so you never know how he'll look. while bika has fought them all bute,ward,froch and even calzaghe. most people forget that bika has a big punch too, dirrel isn't the only guy that can crack here.


lara/trout is a toss up imo 2 southpaws with good boxing skills. schaefer better hope that trout pulls it off to pretty much erase lara from the canelo "sweepstakes", if you can call it that.

Man all bouts could go either way.

Paulie/Devon/Trout/Bika

[Hougigo]

The only one I don't think is 50/50 is Alexander/Porter

Pauli, Devon, Lara, Dirrell

I don't know what to make of Dirrel against Bika.
He hasn't looked spectacular in his fights back and I don't think he's ready for Bika yet.
Bika is the underdog too... worth looking into if you're betting
