Predictions: 5 of 6 Winners, 4 Perfect, 415 Points   |   Tied for 4th with 1 other

Shields vs. Habazin
Claressa Shields, DEC
I wish all these top women in boxing would just throw down. I understand 7lbs is a lot bigger difference in weight than it is with the men, but c'mon maaaan. Make something like, i dunno.... Unified Welterweight Champ, Cecilia Brækhus -vs- Claressa Shields. I believe that's a possibility with Shields moving down. Because Shields is running out of opposition that's able to compete

Ennis vs. Eyubov
Jaron Ennis
Keep an eye out on the kid outta Philly, Jaron Ennis. The kid is legit. National Golden Gloves champ as an ammy. Was ONLY beaten by Gary Antuanne Russell, and even beat him once. The size difference between Ennis & Eyubov is ALMOST ridiculous. Eyubov is 4" shorter, annnd check this.... 10½" shorter reach. Smfh. Expect Ennis to add on to his 14 fight KO streak

Yip Brad bud. Jaron Ennis is 1 to look out for at Welter. He's on the brink of title contention. Lucky for him he's on the right side of things when it comes to promotions. He fights on Showtime who are in with PBC meaning he has a shot at Spence, Porter, Garcia, Thurman, Pacquiao and many others unlike Terance Crawford who is stuck on ESPN as a legit P4P guy but nobody to have a real big fight with!  I really like what I've seen of Ennis, he could be a real threat to the Champions.
As for Shields I think the winner of the 168 title fight is being lined up as an opponent for Shields! I mean Espinoza seems to have a bit of a following; mainly thirsty virgins!!!  Why you think Shields was at UFC245 watching Nunes fight?  She has no ONE to fight and Nunes would be a big payday for her. Probably be billed as the female MayMac!!!
Apti Davideav is being spoken of as a legit Heavyweight prospect! He is not someone I know much about TBH, he has plenty Ko's but hasn't fought anyone yet and that won't change after this fight!!!

You're right tho... PBC is the home for Welterweight Fighters... Feel bad for Bud Crawford cos he gets left out..

I'm not 100% sure about Mikey Garcia bud?  He does have another fight booked at Welterweight vs Jessie Vargas on the 1st weekend of March.  So I guess he is staying at Welterweight.  I'm not sure it's a very good idea though.  I mean he is more a Lightweight maybe even Super Feather, around 130/135 is where he has looked at his best, 147 just seems too big!  I know he was up against 1 of the very best Welters out there in Spence Jr but he just looked so outmatched in that fight and size, power seemed to play a major factor in that.  I am even thinking of picking Jessie Vargas!!!  Maybe not, but I sure think it's going to be a much closer fight than people are expecting.  I just don't see Garcia as a Welter, Vargas is pretty decent too, tho I guess you could say he was at his best as a 140lber, still bigger than Garcia's natural weight!  I think Garcia is going to be kicking himself for taking that Spence fight instead of chasing the Lomachenko fight, I think that'd have been a more competitive fight.  But now with Loma having Teofimo to deal with I can't see that Loma Garcia fight happening anymore.  I actually think Loma will retire soon, maybe even after/if he beats Lopez and unifies?  I know he's had less than 20 fights, but he has been fighting 12 round World Title fights since fight 2 or 3!  Plus 2 Olympics and 400 amateur fights is a long career and a lot of wear and tear!

2 to 3minutes eh? I can't help but think that's about the amount of time in which it would take Shields to hit you enough to KTFO you! 
But God loves a trier!  So, Good luck with that!  I hope you are successful in your quest! ha

I wouldn't mind seeing Garcia at 140lbs... I just don't think 47 is right. I agree, he looked outmatched vs. Spence. Size & Power most notably.

Prediction Comments

Predictions: 5 of 6 Winners, 4 Perfect, 415 Points   |   Tied for 4th with 1 other

Shields vs. Habazin
Claressa Shields, DEC
I kinda want to see Shields get her ass beat here! After the **** her team pulled at the weigh in for this fight that got the original fight cancelled. Her brother, I thinkn, cheap shot KO'd and hospitalized Habazins coach, he was in a bad way in a critical condition in hospital for weeks. Luckily he has recovered, but still for him, an elderly(over 65 year old) and respected coach to be put in that situation is ****** horrible!!! So yeah, I'd love for Habazin to get some pay back for that. But unfortunately Shields is too good, 2x Olympic Champ and soon to be headed to the UFC it seems. I guess I shouldn't blame Claressa herself for what happened at that weigh in, I'm sure she would never do something like that, it has made me root for Habazin though

Espinosa vs. Cederroos
Elin Cederroos, DEC
It seems as though the winner of this fight is being lined up as Claressa Shields next opponent. A weight class above but really that's just a perfect opportunity for Shields to collect a World Title in another weight class! This fight is 2 undefeated women, Espinosa is the home town(kinda), favourite will the bigger following(lots of thirsty, thirsty virgins mostly!!!), Cederroos is the better boxer coming out of the Swedish Amateur system, which is 1 of Europes best and even though she has less fights she has fought better opposition if you include her amateur career. I think Cederroos should win this 1, but I have a feeling she will have to win by complete shut out or she'll get screwed by the judges as Espinosa is the favourite!! My head is telling me to go with the favourite but I have faith in the Swede completely outboxing her for the win

Ennis vs. Eyubov
Jaron Ennis, TKO, R5
Jaron Ennis is 1 to look out for at 147. Still only 22 but he is now 24-0, soon to be 25-0 and on the cusp of getting a shot at one of the Champions. I see him winning here then getting a fight for some made up belt, a Diamond or Silver belt,,, some **** like that!!! Against a top 10 guy, maybe the winner of Ugas vs Dallas, Josesito Lopez, Dulorme maybe Jamal James in a clash of prospects!! Whatever it is,I am pretty sure this kid will be in amongst the big names (Spence, Porter, Thurman, Pac) very soon

Davtaev vs. Barr
Apti Davtaev, TKO, R4
Another Heavyweight too watch out for!!! Expect a KO!!! barr is tough so he'll survive a little but eventually he will sucumb, I'd say somewhere between the 3rd and 5th, so the 4th!!!

Bonas vs. Mitchell
Joseph Bonas, TKO, R2
the Bonas bro's are twins, just in case anyone thought I'd put 2 fights for the same guy on the card!!! From what I've seen I'd say Joseph is the slighty better of the 2. He seems to hit a little harder and he still trains out of the World Famous, Hall of Fame producing Detroit Kronk Gym. That gym has produced Thomas Hearns and Gerald McLellan. 2 of my all time favourite fighters. So if Bonas is even a tenth of what those 2 became he will be real good!

In round 10 now, it's been a pretty entertaining fight overall. Cederroos is likely to win a decision if she survives the 10th. Both ladies are bleeding, Cederroos might have a broken nose and Espinosa has a good sized cut over her right eye.

I'm so pissed I changed my Cederroos pick! I wrote oug exactly what would happn in my original predictions then I chickened out because the favourite wins in boxing 95% of the time! I was almost right as dodgy home cooking  judges almost gave the fight to Espinosa, she lost clearly but the judges had it 95-94. If ghere was no knockdown Espinoza would've won!

Next up Ennis!  Let's see if the hype train keeps on rolling, I  think it will!
