    nov.- 1 mijares/darchinayin
    nov.8 -jones/calzaghe
    nov. 15 -haye/bum
    nov. 22- hatton/paulie

    add that to the big fights in october. vitali/peter dawson/tarver and Bhop/pavlik and pacman /DLH, it must be one the best endings to a year ever.

    Add Sturm vs. Sylvester (Nov. 1) to that card - I'll ensure you, it will be the best meaningful fight in November...

    November is a good month for boxing.. Not any megafights, but some interesting ones indeed.. Hatton vs Malignaggi should be a good fight that I would like to see.. 50/50 fight in my opinion.. Don't really care too much for Calzaghe/RJJ or Darchinyan/Mijares as I predict a schooling in that one.. Molitor vs Caballero should be neat, but the fight I'm mostly looking forward to in November is Jermain Taylor vs Jeff Lacy..

    Why?

    Lacy is going to get retired the hard way by Taylor...

    Darchinyan was recently dominated by Donaire, add to that the draw against Gorres.

    Jones is shot and CAlzaghe has more meaningful challenges out there.

    Haye is fighting an unranked heavy.

    Hatton got knocked out by Floyd and then looked awful against LAzcano. And Paulie is coming off 2 relatively controversial decisions in a row.

    Vitali has been inactive forever and Peter is not very good according to most people (including myself)

    Tarver looked rejuvenated against Woods but looked very shot in his 3 fights before that, and DAwson had a hard time getting past Glen Johnson.

    Hopkins is 43 years old and coming off a loss

    but like I said they are all decent fights that i will watch but nothing i would wanna pay for. Cotto vs Margarito, PAc vs JMM II, etc, theres nothing on that level.

    Because I'm a big fan of Taylor and I just find this an interesting matchup.. I know Lacy is losing this one, but I'm sure it'll be a hell a lot more interesting than Calzaghe/RJJ.. Sturm/Sylvester should be good too, but I doubt I'll even get to see it seeing as how I can't watch fights online..

    Still who doesn't love a good whoopin?

    Honestly a lot of those fihts could be severely one sided. I could see Jones-Calzaghe,Mijares-'Chinyan and Hatton-Paulie being a completely one sided affairs, some of whch could be cringe worthy. At the same time they're so many plotlines in each fight that you can't miss em.

    October looks to be better IMO..although they're both close.

    i agree with you but last year at the same date we could look forward to CAlzaghe vs Kessler, PBF vs Hatton, Taylor Pavlik 1, Cotto vs Mosley, and probably a few more i'm forgetting
