but theyre trying...ibragimov was going to fight chag, and wlad wasnts to unify badly....itll happen soon
boxing is back well it never went anywere to me, i was always glued to the tv when there is a fight on.but this yr is very special and will go down in history i think.
I belive they get it done some time. It just just bad luck on what happen. But having Holyfiled stepping in did not help the divsion at all.
Funny that the biggest fight you didn't mention was Cotto-Mosley. This is an excellent time for boxing. Just as importantly, a lot of the big fights this year have been good (of course, there have been exceptions). I've had people over who watched boxing for the first time and got to see Cintron-Matthysse, Gomez-Gatti, and Williams- Margarito. Another time my friend came over and got to see Ding KO Nwodo. I took my girlfriend to her first boxing match... and it was Cotto-Judah. It's a good time to bring attention to boxing.
It hasn't got much left alright , just Arthur Abraham's defence of his title against Khoren Gevor , Cazares v Calderon and Bernard Dunne's defence of his Europe title(which I shall provide a link to a stream for all of you unlucky enough to live outside Ireland) . That said we have had Vasquez v Marquez , Morales v Diaz and the 'World Cup' cards already this month so it hasn't been that bad . Just looking at boxrec and Chris John and Mzonke Fana also defend their titles this month . But for the first time in probably 10 years I'm able to say , that 1 of the 3 best boxing cards in the whole world in the next 3 weeks is in Ireland :happy(of course this has a lot to do with the quality of fights throughtout the world in the next 3 weeks) . Anyway(more shamless promotion) Bernard Dunne(24-0-0 ,14ko's) v Kiko Martinez(16-0-0 , 13ko's)-European Super Bantamweight title Tony Oakey(24-2-0 , 6ko's) v Brian Magee(28-3-0 , 19ko's)-British Light Heavyweight title Homecoming of Middleweight prospect Andy Lee(10-0-0 , 7ko's) v TBA Matthew Macklin(18-2-0 , 14ko's) v Darren Rhodes(21-12-3 , 7ko's) Paul McCloskey(11-0-0 , 5ko's) v Alfredo Di Feto(12-3-1 , 5ko's) As I said I'll post a stream the day of the bout(25th of August) .
