Haye will not retire before he hits 31, like he's been saying - Right

One of Gamboa or Lopez will lose before they ever face each other in what has been an already drawn-out affair - Right

 

Mayweather will claim to be retired, but still come out of retirement for someone other than Manny - Right

 

Haye will take a very lucky decision win over one of the Klitschko's - Wrong (would have been a hell of a lucky decision seeing he never bothered his ass turning up)

Alvarez will win some version of a world title this year (silver, interim, diamond, super, kinder-egg) - Right He won the full WBC title in his first fight of 2011.

 

Hatton will come out of retirement for a farewell fight - Thankfully Wrong

Cotto will beat Margarito and send him into retirement, fortunately for him, very rich - Right (Retirement part more than likely)

 

Khan will continue to look good in the ring, but spoil it all with his mouth - Right

 

David Lemieux will become a world champion - Wrong

Frank Warren will make 3rd and 4th attempts at "super" cards, which are actually p*ss-poor! - Right More pullouts than Ron Jeremy.

 

 

 

 

 

 

So what are your top 10 predictions for 2012?

We'll take a look over them at the end of the year and see how many you can get right! ;)

I'll throw in my predictions for 2012 anyway:

 

1. Ajose Olusegun will finally end his 10-year wait for a world title shot in 2012, by winning the WBC belt

2. Vitali Klitschko will knock out David Haye

3. Robert Helenius and Tim Bradley will lose their unbeaten records

4. Miguel Cotto will retire on a high after another win

5. Manny Pacquiao will go through 2012 unbeaten

6. Lucian Bute will beat the Super 6 winner

7. Nonito Donaire will only have 1 meaningful fight in 2012, which he will lose

8. Tyson Fury will be knocked out

9. Ricky Burns will continue to defy logic by retaining his world title

10. The myth of Joan Guzman will finally be smashed as he loses to a journeyman

Haye beats Vitali by SD

Fury gets k'od by Povetkin

Chisora gets a shot at Vitali loses on points (does well)

Peterson beats Khan again to set up a trilogy

Murray comes back and beats Gavin Rees.

Ricky Burns to beat Kevin Mitchell on points

Mayweather to get knocked out by his next opponent

Pacquiao to stay clear of Marquez

Wladimir to fight non punchers in 2012

Dawson to beat Hopkins in an awful fight

Ward vs Bute Showdown, boring fight but Ward wins close points

Froch to fight either Kessler, Pascal, Groves, Degale or Cleverly

Cris Arreola adn Adamek to get beaten again

Sturm finally gets beaten!!!

Salido beats Lopez again......

Ortiz beats Berto on close points again

MY BIG PICK TIM BRADLEY TO FIGHT PACQUIAO OR MARQUEZ AND BEAT THEM
