    even though there were enough headbutts in that fight to make Hopkins proud, it was still a very good fight.

    08. Shane Mosley vs Vernon Forrest III
    --Both are out of their primes and both are only a few fights away from retirement, but both still think they got it.. Why not go out in style and give people a fight they would like to see?
    07. Manny Pacquiao vs Ricky Hatton
    --If Pacquiao is to beat Oscar, then this is a fight that must happen.. Hatton is getting old, but this fight would still be filled with fireworks.. Beating DLH and Hatton would be amazing accomplishments for Pac..
    06. Antonio Margarito vs Miguel Cotto II
    --I think Cotto can redeem himself by defeating Margarito in a rematch.. The first fight was explosive and was one of the fights of the year.. Why not have a second fight?
    05. Juan Marquez vs Nate Campbell
    --Both are sitting atop of the 135 division.. Nate Campbell holds all alphabet belts except for the WBC and JMM is the ring champion after knocking out Joel Casamayor.. Both need a big fight and this is the fight that needs to happen right now at 135..
    04. Antonio Margarito vs Paul Williams II
    --Williams defeat Margo in their first fight, but can Margo even it up? A fight the people want to see.. Williams is a beast fighting between 147-160 while Margo is relentless and just KO'd the #1 fighter at 147.. Seems they're both looking different ways right now.. Let's go Clottey :D
    03. Nonito Donaire vs Cristian Mijares
    --Would prove who the best fighter around their division is.. Both are talented boxers with great skills.. Counter-punching, speed, footwork, ring generalship, and much more.. Donaire shocked the world and KO'd Darchinyan when he was the huge underdog.. Let's see how Mijares takes care of Darchinyan come November..
    02. Arthur Abraham vs Kelly Pavlik
    --Do I need to explain? The fight for middleweight supremacy.. A lot of brute strength in this one..
    01. Manny Pacquiao vs Juan Marquez III
    --There should be no other fight that should happen more than this.. First fight ended controversially in 2004 with a draw.. JMM was knocked down three times early in the fight, but rallied back to make the fight a draw, but a judge did have a scoring error which would have resulted in a Pacquiao win.. The second fight ended controversially as well when Pacquiao won by slipt decision.. In their two fights, JMM was won the most rounds, but Pacquiao has also knocked him down four times.. JMM is now chasing Pac for a third fight and it looks like it could take place late next year.. This time it looks like the fight will take place at 140.. Can JMM even the series or will Pac prove all doubters wrong?
