TESS VALMORE
Once again I present this month issue of our much ridiculed predictions As usual, it will be littered with cheap shots, unjustified criticism and unflattering comments. In my May perditions, I went 47-11 running my total to 1761-525 or 77% correct
SCHERZINGER/DORMER Scherzinger will be 41 the day after this PPV. The end of her career is in sight. She has lost five of her last six. Dormer who is only four year younger, hasn’t done much better losing five of her last seven. I’ll take a chance on Dormer
ALDRIDGE/PALVIN Aldridge is a Californian who Debuted in the BBU. How did that happen? She had a good year in 2018, but is 2-3 for this year, losing her first three and winning her last two. Palvin didn’t have a good year last year and her 2019 is worse. She has lost four of her last five. Aldridge will win
DECKER/WINDSOR THIS IS A BLATANT GIMME. Decker is ranked at six in the welters by Boxing World and at four by Tractorpull. Where is Windsor? Down at 68. Windsor has a 2-4 record and has lost her last three, the last one to Lorena Rae for Rae’s first FCBA win. Do I need to tell you is going to win? OK, It will be Decker
M.VEGA/W.HOLLAND Vega is a refugee from a New Blood tournament which she didn’t win. The one loss is her only fight thus for. Holland is a little less than an average fighter. She has lost five of her last seven. I would say the only thing going for her is experience. I think that will be enough Holland wins
KUNIS/O.HOLT Kunis has only won four of her last ten fights, but has gone 2-1 so far for the year. She held the flyweight title back in 2016 Holt has won eight of her last eleven and beat Vanessa Hudgens earlier this year. Holt will win
KREUK/GOMEZ Kreuk is a member of the 100 fight club, but unfortunately not the Hall Of Fame. She held the flyweight title three times, the last time in 2008. Now she has slowed down somewhat and hasn’t had a winning year since 2015 She is 5-9 since then. Gomez is 5-5 for her last ten and 2-1 for this year.
I think this is a 50-50 bout. I will go with Kreuk
KOSTEK Kostek is one of the hot new welters. She has quickly climbed into the top ten with wins over T. Atkinson. Rohrbach and Krsmanovic She is 2-1 for this year with the loss being to Rhoda. Freeman has been in and out of the top ten for several years. She had a good year in 2018, but this year, not so much She is 1-3 the year with her only win being over the aged Nolin. I go with Kostek
UPTON/FLAIR I wish they could both lose. I am on record of disliking wrestlers in the FCBA. As for as Upton is concerned, I am not impressed with her wins over newbies that she is being fed and her non conventional activities. Since I have to choose a winner. It will be Flair
PEREGRYM/CUOCO I’m happy to see Missy getting active again. From 2007 through 2009 she dominated the bantams going 22-5-1 and winning two titles. In 2010, she made the decision to move up to lightweight. Despite being a small lightweight the managed to win two lightweight titles. She slowed down in 2018 and had a bad 0-4 record. She won her first bout this year. Now 37, she still has an outside chance at the Hall Of Fame Cuoco is already in the Hall Of Fame. In 2016 she participated in a JMDD tournament and hasn’t been the same since. In the last two years she has a 6-9 record and has lost seven of her nine bouts. I’m going with Missy
WILDE/EVIGAN Wilde is a great example of what happens when a stable goes dormant. Wilde was a top bantam winning 27 while losing only twelve, The management disappeared and she went from top flight to also ran. Beginning in 2017 she now lost eight straight and is now ranked at 33 and that is generous. Evigan was never a top ten bantam, but since 2017 she is 4-4, losing both her bouts this year. Her last loss was to Vanessa Hudgens Evigan will continue Wilde’s losing streak
AGDAL/H.DAVIS Agdal is 5-5 in her last ten. Her losses were to good fighters and her wins were over second tier fighters. Davis as appeared eight times, half in JMDD. She’s 1-3 in conventional bouts. She hasn’t done any better at JMDD
Agdal notches another win over a tier two fighter
GIBBS/LIPA Gibbs is an up and coming lightweight. She is 3-2 for the year but is 8-2 in her last ten. Her opponents have been average fighters. Lipa has had only three FCBA fights winning two. Lipa is a lightweight. Her two wins were over bantams. i have to go with Gibbs
H.FERGUSON/T.COLE Boxing World has Ferguson ranked at five in the welters. Tractorpull doesn’t have her ranked since she failed to fight a conventional fight in three months. Her 31-6 record in impressive but less so when you drop out the JMDD results. Cole has been in and out of the top ten lightweight and welter rankings for years. She’s held two lightweight titles and one welter plus a sectional title. Right now Boxing World has her ranked at 24. She has lost four of her last five bouts. As much as I would like Cole to win, it isn’t going to happen
LOPILATO/FONSECA THIS IS A GIMME Lopilato is 7-3 in her last ten one of those losses being to Yustman, a top lightweight. Let’s make this quick. Fonseca should be declared a federal disaster Her last win was in 2014. After this bout her last win will still be in 2014
M.FOX/SEYFRIED THIS IS A BLATANT GIMME Fox has simply been unbelievable in the last three year with a 25-2 record. Seyfried has only had four conventional bouts in the last five years losing her last six, her last win being in 2013 Fox breezes to another win
SANTORO/HOLKER Santoro is a decent bantam having gone 5-5 in her last ten conventional bouts. Holker came up in 2017 and has only has three fights winning all of them One of Holker’s wins was over Santoro in November of last year. I am going with Santoro to break Hokler’s brief win streak
BECKINSALE/GLAU THIS IS A GIMME Vixens don’t want to admit it, but Beckinsale is on the downside She is 3-6 for the last two years and even lost to McCarthy. As for Glau. in the old days, she would now be barred from fighting. She had lost eleven straight. This will be her first fight of the year. It should be her last. She will make Beckinsale look good
R.B.SMITH/PAUSINI THIS IS A GIMME Smith’s stable doesn’t have a lot of faith in her. She’s only has five fights since 2016, Maybe that’s because she has lost four of those bouts. As bad as Smith is, Pausini is worse. She has had nine fights and failed to win a single one Why is Smith challenging Pausini? Maybe it’s because her only win came against Pausini last year. Smith repeats
K.BELL/PANETTIERE Bell has been around since 2005, She has a 40-32 record and has held the flyweight title three times. She hasn’t been very active recently having seven bouts in the last three years. She won only two of those seven bouts. Panettiere is in the Hall Of fame, but she has also won three flyweight titles Panettiere has had a little rough time recently, but she will beat Bell
OLSEN/RATAJKOWSKI I don’t know how Ratajkowski has time to train. She seems to spend most of her time posing for any paparazzi who wants to take her picture. She is 4-3 for the year and Boxing World has her ranked at 16 in the bantams. Olsen has won four of her last five with her loss being to Kosarin. Boxing World has her ranked at ten. My fiancé thinks she is better the Ratajkowski. He has good taste in women Olsen wins
DiDONATO/B.LIVELY DiDonato is getting a big push in the lightweight. So far, so good. In the last two years, she 7-1 with her only loss being to Ambrosio. Lively has been around for twelve years and has a 26-29 record and is 5-5 in her last ten. She has held one unified lightweight title. This should be a good fight. I think that DiDonato will win
BARROS/G.ATKINSON BARROS is going to get a big push in the welters. She is 1-2 in her first three fights but her first two opponents were Krsmanovic and Upton. A poor choice of opponents for a newbie. Atkinson held the welter title in 2017 and then everything went north (remember south is good. north, not so much) She has lost eight of her last ten. She is now a go to for a win. Barros went and she will get the win
D.R.RUSSELL/DYER Russell broke into the FCBA earlier in the year. She has won one of her three fights. Dyer also broke in this year and has a 1-1. I don’t have a feeling for this bout. I will go with Dyer and the only reason I do, is that she is from Nashville.
LIND/KING Lind spends a lot of her time at JMD, but she has been successful in conventional bouts She has won six of eight beating Lovato in the year end PPV last year, but that fight was at JMD I know King well as she lives at Front Street. She has won 16 straight, but has never faced a good fighter. Lind will be a real test. I’m going with King. Don’t ask me why. I have no idea
S.TURNER/WOLL Turner’s claim to fame is denying she was responsible for giving Starbucks two billion dollars worth of free publicity She is 3-3 in the last two years with her big win being over VanCamp, who is a bantam. Woll’s first two bouts were at the Asylum. Does that tell you something? In her third bout, she lost to Khloe Kardashian. While Turner’s record is not exactly great, she is good enough to take care of Woll
BENOIST/BUSH Benoist is an average fighter who has fought a decent schedule. She has a 9-7 record and has won two of three for the year. Bush is also an average fighter. She has had a lot more experience than Benoist. Her record is 28-22. She has won six of her last ten. This should be a good fight. I think Bush will win
BASSINGER/PARRISH This is Bassinger maiden fight. She turned twenty last month. I have no idea who she is, but she is supposed to be on some show on Nickelodeon. Does anyone really watch that network? Parrish is terrible, but she actually won a fight recently. She beat Vayntrub in Vayntrub’s first fight. Maybe if she continues to fight newbies she can improve on her miserable 2-9 record. I have to go with Parrish
S.HUDGENS/HALE Hale’s claim to fame is she lost for first nine fights and then three years later won the flyweight title. Since losing the title, she has reverted back to an average fighter. She, however, has lost seven of her last ten. Hudgens is in her fourth year in the FCBA and has won ten of her 14 bouts and is 3-0 for the year Hale beat Hudgens sister a couple years ago. If she can beat Vanessa, she can beat Stella
WINSTEAD/SAGRA This is a body saddle fight, an event created by Theron years ago. In fact, Winstead lost a body saddle bout to the GOAT back in 2010. Winstead in one of my favorites and stays around the top ten because she fights the best. This year she has fought Righetti, Palicki, Ambrosio and Kendall Jenner. She has held two unified titles and was the champ at the beginning of the year. Sagra has been impressive thus far. She went 11-3 in her first two years but this year has lost three of five. Winstead in not really old, but she has had 96 fights mostly against top talent. The wear and tear on her body may be taking it’s toll and it did to Theron. She has lost three of four this year, of course to the best, but Sagra is not a walk in the park I hate to say it, but I think Sagra will win
LOVATO/DENNINGS For the bantam title. This will be Lovato’s second defense. She is on a six conventional fight winning streak. Again, I know Dennings fairly well since she is another of the Front Street crowd. Her record is not as good as most Front Street fighters, but she has fought a tougher schedule. She got this bout because she fought Lovato to a draw in January of last year. I think Lookout sees Dennings as an easy way to revenge that draw and pick up another win. Front Street seems to have success in circumstances like this. I have no doubt Lovato will be favored in Vegas, but I will go for the upset Dennings will give Front Street their second current title
AMBROSIO/SWIFT I have said that Ambrosio was an unlikely champion. I also said she would lose her first defense. This will be her third defense after beating Lima and Sagra. You might say I underestimated her. Now she faces Swift who I also think is an unlikely champion. Swift is 3-1 for the year, but her competition hasn’t been as good as Ambrosio’s Ambrosio makes me look silly by winning her third defense
RIGHETTI/PRINSLOO You know the drill. Righetti
The introduction of Bassinger bring the new fighters for the year to 42
The good news No JMD/DD on the card
