Hunt vs Mir in my opinion is one of the hardest fights to pick . Mir has looked great in his past bouts, Hunt's been inconsistent but it's been with the elite of the elite but his chin has been tested in the past few years. Mir could come out looking like a world beater, but I think Hunt might catch Mir late in the first.

Look at the guys Mir has KO'ed.  Duffee was totally off balance when Mir landed the punch that KO'ed him, and Silva doesn't have much of a chin ever since he got off the testosterone.  This fight is going to show Mir's true character.  Unless Mir turns into a serious counter-puncher, Hunt wins this one going away.

The world needs more 10-8 rounds, nice to see one judge using it early
