SOME SAY SCORING WAS WAY OFF!
Berlin, Germany– Jurgen Brahmer (38-2, 30 KOs) UD 12 Eduard Gutknecht (24-1, 9 KOs) Was Eduard Gutknecht robbed? Scores: 117-110, 116-111, 114-113. European light heavy (175 lb.) title)
“JUAN MA” WINS MISMATCH
Bayamon, Puerto Rico– (Direct TV) Juan Manuel Lopez (32-2, 29 KOs) TKO 9 Aldimar Santos Mario Briones (23-3-1, 17 KOs) “Handpicked” foe down in rounds 5, 7, 9. Lopez gets needed win for psyche.
INJURED(?) DIRRELL GOT “HAM & EGGS”
McAllen, TX– (Telefutura) Andre Dirrell (21-1, 14 KOs) UD 10 Milton Nunez (25-7-1, 14 KOs) Scores were 100-87 across the board in “work” fight. Still think Dirrell is “Damaged Goods” neurologically.
PREDICTED EUROPEAN TITLE UPSET!
Aulnay-Sous-Bois, France– Max Bursak (26-1-1, 12 KOs) TKO 3 Julien Sainte (34-3, 24 KOs) Bursak sends Sainte home early in 12 rounder.
PEDRO’S “FIVE STAR” BET A WINNER!
Queretaro, Mexico– Andres Gutierrez (25-0-1, 21 KOs) KO 2 Jose Carmona (18-3, 11 KOs). Easy win on yet another successful week of picks!
Mario Briones (24-3-1, 18 KOs) TKO 6 Ramon Maas (26-3, 15 KOs). Briones figures out southpaw and stops him!
GOMEZ WINS ATOP “SIN CITY” SHOW
Las Vegas, NV– Frankie Gomez (15-0, 11 KOs) UD 10 Lanard Lane (13-3, 8 KOs)

SIGNIFICANT UPSET IN GERMANY
Dusseldorf, Germany–Sam Soliman (43-11, 17 KOs) UD 12 Felix Sturm (37-4-2, 16 KOs) Sam Soliman (42-11, 17 KOs) I told you in the pre-fight Odds/Prediction article to be wary of the Canadian judge Benoit Roussel who had a razor close fight 116-111 for Soliman. Has Sturm gone against the German boxing establishment by self-promoting? Is that why he isn’t getting even remotely close calls anymore?
ESPN2 MAIN EVIDENCE “SPINKS STILL STINKS”
Chicago, IL– (ESPN2) Carlos Molina (21-5-2, 6 KOs) UD 12 Corey Spinks (39-8, 7 KOs) Easy win for Molina as the scores were 120-105 & 119-106 twice! Decked, penalized a point for holding, Cory did not learn how to fight from his mother. Seeing him and father Leon Spinks fight, and knowing of the mother’s many KOs of Leon in domestic squabbles.
OLD BOXING DONKEY CAN HONK NO MAS!
Antwone Smith (23-4-1, 12 KOs) UD 10 Jose Luis Castillo (64-12-1, 55 KOs) Easy win for Smith as aged-Mexican champ cannot hold a gun let alone pull the trigger. Scores were 100-90, 99-91, 98-92 for winner. Castillo docked one point for fouls.
