PETER QUILLIN DESERVES TOP BILLING OVER B-HOP!
Boardwalk Hall, Atlantic City, NJ-(Showtime) Champion Bernard Hopkins (53-6-2, 32 KOs) vs Karo Murat (25-1-1, 13 KOs) (IBF 175 lb. title) Odds/Prediction: Hopkins 2-1. Betting on 48-year old men in boxing matches is silly, if not asinine.
Champion Peter Quillin (29-0, 21 KOs) vs Gabriel Rosado (21-6, 13 KOs) (WBO 160 lb. title) Odds/Prediction: Quillin 14-5. Dropping $1,400 to get $1,900. People give Rosado a shot, I’m just not one of them. Peter wins with exclamation mark!
NO SHAME IN DEONTAY WILDER CAMP!
Deontay Wilder (29-0, 29 KOs) vs Willie Standup (Does it matter?) (Heavyweights) Odds/Prediction: 100-1. When will Wilder fight somebody that is alive?
KELL BROOK NEEDS TO MAKE BIG STATEMENT
Motorpoint Arena, Sheffield, UK– (Sky Sports) Kell Brook (30-0, 20 KOs) vs Vyacheslav Senchenko (33-1, 22 KOs) (147 lb.) Odds/Prediction: Kell 11-5. Kell is either the real deal or a fraud! I lean towards his being a top ranked welter. Will need to stay focused against ex-WBA champ who was halted by Paulie Malignaggi.
Brian Rose (24-1-1, 7 KOS) vs Javier Francisco Maciel (27-2, 20 KOs) (154 lb.) Odds/Prediction: 7-5 Rose. Maciel has power.
DOUBLE “AA” IN MORE THAN “WORK” FIGHT?
EWE-Arena, Oldenburg, Germany– Arthur Abraham (37-4, 28 KOs) vs Giovanni De Carolis (20-4, 10 KOs) (168 lb.) Odds/Prediction: AA 11-5. Abraham a notch below the top at 168, looks like he’ll do a number on Carolis, thus $2,200 to walk with $3,200.
Marcos Nader (17-0-1, 2 KOs) vs Luis Crespo (9-5-1, 4 KOs) (160 lb.) Odds/Prediction:
Nader 2 1/2 to 1. Neither can punch!
Jack Culcay (14-1, 10 KOs) vs Guido Nicolas Pitto (18-1, 7 KOs) (154 lb.) Odds/Prediction: 6-5 pick ’em.
Anatoliy Dudchenko (18-2. 13 KOs) vs Robert Woge (12-0, 10 KOs) (175 lb.) Odds/Prediction: Woge 8-5. Both coming to win!
