    That's very true. There have been a lot of entertaining scraps this year.

    * Taylor vs Cameron is probably as big as Taylor vs Serrano 2.
    * Inoue vs Fulton has been rescheduled to July 25. Not too long to wait.
    * Teraji vs Gonzalez could still happen. But...Honestly, the replacement fighter that Kenshiro is facing could prove to be much tougher speed bump on the road to further unification than most would initially imagine. Still an intriguing matchup to me.

    If all goes well, we're still getting Loma vs Haney and Tank vs Kingry before the year is half completed, over and above what's been a pretty decent start to the year, all things considered.

    It's definitely a period of disappointment right now, the sport thrives on the big fights being made and most of the possibly big match ups don't seem to be happening. But this happens, chances are most of these fights will eventually get made, I'm guessing after the cash cows Joshua and Canelo being so utterly dominated the men who run this sport are now more risk adverse and looking to protect their investments by protecting their fighters and so these big lucrative but also risky fights are not being made.
