I agree w/all three predictions. Yorgey is a blue collar brawler so
this one will be brutal while it lasts.
Dawson-Johnson was one of the best fights of that year but I don't see
the rematch being as close as Chad has not only improved in the last
two years but has promised to play it safe by outboxing Johnson. It'll
still be worth watching, though.
Interestingly Graham Houston predicts that Haye's chin and stamina
problems will lead to him being stopped late.

He may be right but I just can't pick Valuev after his pathetic
showing against a 46 year old Holyfield.

Exactly.

He might go far in the unlikely event the Klitschkos retired.
Still, he's an exciting fighter who I'd love to see against Arreola or
Tomasz Adamek.
