    Pacquiao-Mayweather wasn't it for me because 1) Pacquiao was iced by Roidquez and 2) Floyd's 5+ years duck job ensured that we would be seeing an old Pacquiao.

    I have to say, though, the fight that had me the most anxious (like cold sweat and shaking like a little ho during the ring walks) was Pacquiao-Cotto. This fight made me lose sleep.

    Note: I started watching boxing with De La Hoya-Mosley in 2000.

    Why? That fight became much less interesting after Pacquiao got iced.

    actually kovalev vs ward recently. and thats why i get annoyed knowing the wrong man get the decision.

    because this was the real fight to establish the proper number 1 for 2016.

    Ah, you're one of those mentally challenged guys who subscribe to the "Pacquiao Was Prime and the KO Had Zero Effect" school of thought. Gotcha.

    These guys talking about Mayweather/Pac have no sense of history. Or were born a couple years ago.
    Even Hearns-Leonard I was more highly anticipated.
