Sheeraz vs Williams
Hamzah Sheeraz, TKO, R5
How do 75% of people have Sheeraz by decision? He doesn't go to points.

Zhang needs to win inside 5 rounds. Otherwise he’s going to fade badly down the stretch. We all know wilder carries his power late into fights and if he survives the first few rounds and any early scares I think he takes this between 8-10

Predictions: 6 of 6 Pending   |   Tied for 1st with 878 others

Wilder vs. Zhang
Zhilei Zhang, TKO, R5
Deontay will have to run around like he did in the Parker fight to tire out Zhang, otherwise he'll get big bang'd.

Bivol vs. Zinad
Dmitry Bivol, DEC
A decision win seems about right for Bivol, but Zinad will have never faced anyone of Bivol's pedigree before; he could potentially get TKO'd.

Hrgovic vs. Dubois
Filip Hrgovic, DEC
I think Dubois will show a bit more heart here but Hrgovic seems supremely confident and will be looking to make a statement with the AJ September card as a prize.

Ford vs. Ball
Nick Ball, DEC
Nick Ball should be a world champion; Ford seems to be struggling at the weight whereas Ball is comfortable.

Sheeraz vs. Williams
Hamzah Sheeraz, TKO, R11
Williams is slick and could draw out a decision but Sheeraz is just too powerful; one good combination will drop 'Ammo'.

Hutchinson vs. Richards
Craig Richards, TKO, R9
I don't know why so many people are backing Hutchinson on here - Richards has far more experience at a higher level.

Wilder vs. Zhang
Zhilei Zhang, TKO, R6
Chat **** get Zhanged!!!! Both guys coming off upset defeats by decision vs Joseph Parker but the difference between them is Zhang almost had Parker out a couple of times so he was live in the fight, Wilder looked lost and to me he looked like a shot fighter. Think Zhang gets the KO here, of course Wilder does have that nuclear weapon of a right hand but it's no use if he doesn't throw (like vs Parker). My biggest worry with picking Zhang is that he gasses out

Hutchinson vs. Richards
Craig Richards, TKO, R7
Richards is.my most confident pick on this card (apart from Bivol but he's not part of the 5v5)

I have never been more conflicted in picking a main event winner in any card quite like this. This is the exact definition of a coin toss fight. And this is coming from a boxing card. You rarely ever see coin toss fights on boxing cards nowadays. The Saudi's and their money be wild dawg.
