This is my prediction for the WBC heavyweight championship fight between current champion Vitali Klitschko and Albert Sosnowski.
I think that people are underestimating Sosnowski. His 2 losses were due to circumstances that are no longer present. His 1st loss was when he was inexperienced with boxing having just transferred over from kickboxing not long before, and his second loss he was ill. He has steadily improved. He is at his peak right now, and he is in what it looks like the best shape of his life.
I don't think this will be a cakewalk for Vitali. I think that Sosnowski might even "shock" Vitali in the 1st round because even Vitali might not know how good Sosnowski is going to be good on this night. But, I predict that Vitali will start to become faster on his feet by rounds 2 and 3 and start to jab Sosnowski and keep the distance. The fight most likely will last until the later rounds. If I knew Sosnowski had a good chin I'd say the fight would go to the scorecards with Vitali winning a unanimous decision, but I have a feeling Vitali will catch him in the later rounds and there will be a TKO victory. So either decision or late TKO and I'm going with late TKO. What do you think?

Klitschko vs Johnson Prediction
This is my prediction for the upcoming WBC heavyweight championship fight this Saturday, December 12th in Berne, Switzerland between current WBC heavyweight champ "Dr. Ironfist" Vitali Klitschko (38-2, 37 KOs) and American undefeated heavyweight Kevin "Kingpin" Johnson (22-0-1, 9 KOs).
I think the easiest way to think of this fight is how much of a problem do you think Kevin Johnson is going to be if Vitali was more than willing to choose Johnson as a voluntary defense after only 3 months after disposing of the undefeated American Chris Arreola?
Obviously, he does not think too highly of him as a serious threat. Kevin Johnson seems to think highly of himself though. According to him he thinks he's the next Mohammed Ali. He seems to think he's extremely fast, can't be touched, or hit, etc. But, if you look at his fights, he is NOT that fast. He has good speed with his HANDS, but his footwork is really pretty slow. This is what will be his downfall. Yes, Johnson does have a longer reach in this fight, but Vitali is much taller and is good at not only keeping the distance but keeping out of range with his body. Johnson will need to hit UP to hit Vitali in the face which will take away from his reach.
The other factors are obvious. Vitali has way more experience in general and way more experience in championship fights and against top contenders. I think Johnson's best win was against Devin Vargas who only had a week notice but still did a good job against Johnson and lasted 6 rounds, and Vargas is a pretty small heavyweight. I guarantee if he had more time he would have beaten Johnson.
Vitali will stay at a proper distance easily because he will have the superior footwork, and Johnson will not be able to hurt Klitschko nor will he be able to land the proper combos. The only thing in question in this fight is when will Klitschko win. It will depend on whether Johnson will run or not. I say he will stick and move. At least he will try to, and the fight will probablly last until around round 9. I'd say Vitali Klitschko by TKO/KO (Johnson's chin is in question. I don't know how good it is) in round 9. That's my prediction. What do you say?

Klitschko vs Arreola Prediction
This is my prediction on how the WBC heavyweight championship fight will go this Saturday, September 26th at the Staples Center between current WBC champ Vitali Klitschko and Chris Arreola.
I think Arreola's best chance is to come out guns blazing in hopes to catch Vitali and not worry about running out of energy. I say this because I think any other tactic will be a for sure loss, and it's because of this I see Vitali winning this fight.
If Arreola does come out on fire at the very least if he loses he can show a valiant effort and have the excuse that he wasn't in the best shape possible to go all the rounds etc..
But, I don's see it happening like that, or at least having success at doing it if he does. I think Vitali will control him with his jab and footwork and although Arreola might have the plan to come in and go crazy he will soon become frustrated with getting hit with Vitali's shots and will start to go through the motions.
Vitali will start landing more right crosses by round 4 and by round 6 or 7 I think Arreola will be too tired to mount a proper offense or defense and will start getting hit at almost will. I see this being a TKO stoppage around rounds 7 through 9. That's my prediction what do you think?
Here are some other predictions from boxing fans off of Youtube. Enjoy!
