So far they got it "right" with the seeds cause both in CW and 168 the first 2 seeds fight each other in the final
I suspect they made the first mistake here with naming Burnett as the #1 seed, kid won't make past Tete
They probably got the 140 seeds right, I expect a Prograis vs Taylor final, but plenty of dark horses in there
for 118 .i think moloney is an IBF mandatory so he will get rodriguez in the opening round
that leaves
burnett, monster, and tete
against
donaire, payaono, and aloyan
my guess
rodriguez vs moloney
burnett vs payano
monster vs donaire
tete vs aloyan
is aloyan really that nice to be in this tournament being 4-0 with no knockout wins? how did he get ranked?
140 already has 2 set fights because of mandatories
baranchyk vs yigit for the vacant ibf title
relikh vs troyansky for the wba title
im guessing it will be
prograis vs flanagan
taylor vs martin

Aloyan got pushed in by the Russians basically, he already had 2 SD wins and doesn't seem to have much power. I expect Burnett to pick him. Inoue to pick Donaire cause that could be a big fight in Asia, that leaves Tete with Payano who is ranked #1 by WBO anyway. And as you said Manny Rodriguez vs Moloney
in 140 2 of them are prefixed as you said and I don't know who Prograis gonna pick... Flanagan is less of a dark horse than Martin but maybe Prograis will pick Martin cause he's American too and there won't be much of a problem with picking a location this way and he surely doesn't have to travel a lot
to me its either face an inexperienced russian amateur with paulie power and a possible slickster or face a wild ass struggle filled brawler in payano for burnett..i gotta catch an aloyan fight later to see what he is all about
i think flanagan might be more conducive to what prograis likes stylewise than martin...but i can see your point about prograis-martin being easier to make since they are both american
