Usyk vs. Dubois
Oleksandr Usyk, DEC
Pretty much home affair for Usyk as Poles love Ukrainians, sucks to see how bad Gypsy "King" is ducking Usyk like a Plague and taking an ez fight vs Ngannou, if Fury retires before fighting Usyk, he's legacy will forever be tainted

Usyk vs. Dubois
Oleksandr Usyk, DEC
Great fight... Big fan of both and Dubois will be made at 25 after this fight which is epic for him... Hope he just keeps the hunger... He can still be the future even if he doesnt win here... Usyk is arguably the toughest Ukrainian alive, or at least in hand to hand combat terms, and thats saying something... He is the pride of Ukraine for sure.... S.U✊

Berinchyk vs. Yigit
Denis Berinchyk, DEC
Cool records and 27-3-1 Swedish boxer ****.... And he has some nice wins by the looks of it

Predictions: 9 of 13 Winners, 3 Perfect, 555 Points   |   Tied for 260th

Usyk vs. Dubois
Daniel Dubois, TKO, R7
Daniel Dubois has a significant height and weight advantage in this matchup. Usyk will need to fight flawlessly in order to overcome such a disadvantage, as he is not known for a very strong chin. He is also more likely to tire quickly against a much taller and heavier opponent. If Dubois can land a few well-timed punches in early rounds while Usyk is still adjusting to the distance, he can put the much smaller man away with a devastating right hand. This could come as early as the 7th round if Usyk does not adjust quickly enough.

Berinchyk vs. Yigit
Denis Berinchyk, TKO, R7
Denis Berinchyk is a heavy-hitter with lots of brute strength for punching and the ability to use his height and weight to his advantage. He likes to go aggressively for a KO victory. Anthony Yigit is agile and skilled but he lacks the raw power to compete with Berinchyk. Yigit lacks the power to keep Berinchyk from coming straight at him and Berinchyk's power will be too much for Yigit to keep up with, eventually resulting in a round 7 KO.

Creative New Predictions

Predictions: 5 of 6 Winners, 1 Perfect, 275 Points   |   302nd Place

Cherkashyn vs. Ngamissengue
I select Fiodor Cherkashyn at -1350. He has a laudable crucifix and a zen right hand. Cherkashyn should shatter the bandit.

Lapin vs. Schwartz
I elect Daniel Lapin at -2400. He has a bodacious randleplex and an exhaustive bear hug. Lapin should kiss the Octagon.

Wolczecki vs. Arriaza
I go with Rafal Wolczecki at -1200. He has a noble check hook. Wolczecki shall kick the humiliating defeat.

Berinchyk vs. Yigit
I predict Denis Berinchyk at -1250. He has a ruthless fallaway moonsault slam and a lame reverse frankensteiner and also a hot spinning back elbow. Berinchyk is gonna nationalize the TV audience.

Usyk vs. Dubois
I am loyal to Oleksandr Usyk at -1400. He has a zen training style. Usyk will implement the dissentient.

Sheeraz vs. Mytrofanov
I am all over Hamzah Sheeraz at -400. He has a brilliant uppercut. Sheeraz must whack the dark horse.

Good performance by Usyk, Dubois could have done some more work to the body Usyk was reacting to every shot he landed there but he was just not skilled enought. Also Tim Bradley is so great on the commentary man was on point the whole fight.

Chin beat me to it.

Well actually Usky got dropped and saved by the ref and hurt to the body on multiple occasions.
Pretending either man looked good is pure ignorance, dude was 12/1 should have stopped him in five.
Never get why people get spoon fed by biased commentators and just blindly agree.
