~ Arthur Abraham W12 Andre Dirrell- unanimous decision with scores looking something like 117-111 or 116-112; if there is a stoppage, it will be from Abraham in the final rounds; even though Abraham is the favorite and I think he'll win clearly, I wouldn't be surprised if Dirrell won a decision.
~ Victor Cayo W12 Marcos Maidana- unanimous decision with scores looking something like 116-112 or 115-113; if there is a stoppage, it will be from Maidana early in the fight and no later than the middle rounds; Cayo is a very good and underrated fighter as evidenced by his dominant victory over the former champion Julio Diaz and I think after a rocky start, he'll take control of the fight to pull the upset and win a close decision, possibly majority or split; Maidana is the rightful favorite due to his power and I wouldn't be surprised if my prediction proves to be wrong and Maidana stops him.
~ Joan Guzman W12 Ali Funeka- unanimous decision with scores looking something like 116-112 or 115-113; I can't see a stoppage for either fighter in this bout; Funeka clearly deserved to win the first fight but I think Guzman will be more fresh for this fight since he was very inactive at the time of the first fight (but then again, so was Funeka) and I think he'll use his superior counter punching and defensive skills to take a close decision, possibly majority or split; judging by how the first fight went, I wouldn't be surprised if Funeka takes this fight by decision due to his height, reach, and size advantages.
~ Yuriorkis Gamboa KO Jonathon Barros- I think this fight will make it to the middle rounds before Gamboa gets the stoppage; Barros has a good record but when you look at the guys he's beaten to get it, the majority of them were horrible opposition and Gamboa seems to be the real deal; I would be completely shocked if Barros managed to get the win.
~ Koki Kameda W12 Pongsaklek Wonjongkam- unanimous decision with scores looking something like 117-111 or 116-112; I can't see a stoppage victory for either fighter in this fight; based on their most recent performances against Daisuke Naito, I have to give the edge to Kameda because the latter beat Naito clearly whereas Wonjangkam lost his title to Naito and then drew with him in the rematch (although he did defeat him twice earlier in his career); I wouldn't be surprised if Wonjangkam wins due to his vast experience but I think he's a bit too long in the tooth to get the victory of a young opponent like Kameda who is at his peak.
