    Mosley/Berto, Juanma/Gamboa doubleheader and possible future fight between them both, Floyd/Pac even if the fight falls through, they will fight someone this year which is always good to watch, Super middleweights tourney, Haye VS. either Klit I believe will happen, and finally the most exciting division in boxing; the Junior welters! This division is loaded with talent, Bradley, Maidana, Pacquaio, Malignaggi, Torres, Holt, Alexander, Khan, Ortiz...Anything goes in this division and it will give us some very interesting fights this coming year.

    This will be a great year for boxing IMO!

    Got to disagree with almost everything.

    Super six hasn't lost anything, there's still a lot of fights over there and I'm looking forward to round 2 like many are.

    Cotto - won't retire, he's taking a break after a tough fight and already said he plans to continue when the break is over so we're not sure if he's going to retire.

    Mayweather - We don't know there as well. If he fights M.Hatton then you might as well put him on the ignore list because I would expect a chain of circus fights after that for money then retirement once again without accomplishing anything in his return. Either that or a fight with Mosley or Pacquiao. If they shamelessly make the M.Hatton fight then expect them to fight R.Hatton, DLH or Marquez in rematches with no shame either. I sure as **** won't be supporting that like I'm not supporting their blind accusations of Pacquiao.

    Pacquiao - I wouldn't call Malginaggi an irrelevant fight, that's a very good fight and an excellent way to prepare for Mayweather after it or Mosley or whoever they plan to end their careers fighting. Pacquiao won't retire after the Malginaggi if that fight goes well, they surely will fight either Mosley or someone else good to end it all before going into politics 100%. If the Mayweather fight doesn't happen then people will remember that Pac was ready for it and Mayweather wasn't. Malignaggi is coming off TWO good wins against Daiz, not counting the bull**** robbery of course so he's not exactly a joke. Pac's last 4 fights were serious ones so one stay-active one is reasonable.

    Haye - Will definitely fight the Klits, if not them then Povetkin or Adamek and those fights are very good ones so there's nothing negative there.

    Dawson - He's definitely in a bad spot so I can't argue there but you never know what may come up.

    Bute - Just made a lot of noise knocking out Andrade is a shocker. There's a lot of good stuff in stock for him with the super six going on. Fights with Miranda, Green or Bika are all open and good fights.

    Pavlik - Don't waste your time here, don't expect any fight worth mentioning taken by this tomato can. After the ass whopping from Hopkins Arum will do his best to overprotect this guy from hitting rock bottom. They will pick on guys coming off losses or unranked guys shamelessly with three or four alcoholics cheering them on till he eventually gets stripped the **** out. When an undisputed Middleweight champion turns down a fight with a Welterweight moving up because of an injured FINGER and a female journalist asks him to show her and he says "No, sorry" you know this is a can in the making.

    Williams - ATG potential remains. He just delivered a fight arguably considered fight of the year so how is the ATG potential out?, he fought a tough opponent and it was close. Was Pacquiao's ATG potential thrown out the window after his first close fight with Marquez?, don't think so. Williams still has good options to take on.
