    Only a few days into the new year and we already have Haye-klitschko falling apart, Is it going to be another disappointing year in boxing?:thinkThoughts?

    No.

    Plenty of good fights in the early quarter lined up.

    Fernando Montiel vs. Nonito Donaire
    Timothy Bradley vs. Devon Alexander
    Froch vs. Johnson
    Agbeko vs. Mares
    Darchinyan vs. Perez

    Last year was miserable until the last month for the most part. I think everybody is pretty excited about the first 2 fights mentioned.

    I think either one regardless of who wins (bradley im going for) will fall to khan at some point early september its nothing to really sit up and take notice of even though its a big fight in the light welters.

    Well, since your of the opinion that the winner fights Khan in September of this year wouldn't that help make it a good year?

    Nope, looking forward to bradley-alexander and donaire-montiel fight.

    possible khan vs bradley-alexander winner this year
    Who knows klits vs haye could still happen

    lopez=gamboa

    it's only january lots of big fights can still happen

    Won't be the GREATEST YEAR... but it should be good... Khan vs winner of Bradley/ Alexander will be worth while.... and watching the 118 division, the 122 division, and the super Six should be entertaining, along with Hopkins, Dawson, and Pascal...

    No because I think Khan wins rather routinely the Maidana fight was the fight was the fight at light welter

    Hell no.

    Weve got 140lbs, and 118lbs to make up for everything this year, add to that the next stage of super six, and hopefully middleweight can progress a little and this should shape up to be a fairly decent year to me personally.

    oh **** off. only an idiot thinks that one fight makes or breaks a sport

    thats like looking at the Patriots Schedule and seeing that they arent playing the Eagles and having a menstration

    truth is our minds havee been clouded with bull**** since de la hoya mayweahter

    we think one fight is gonna save boxing

    **** that ufc gets it right they make the best fight the best consistently on one big card

    2011 is shaping up great already the ESPN FNF was an amazing all out fight to open the yr

    bradley alexander is on its way

    so **** off wiht your pessimism

    haye klitshcko and pac may have not been happening for sometime now so dont act like its new news cause its not
