    Martinez wants to fight welter weights pacquiao n mayweather.

    Chavez might fight Cotto or Canelo which are two junior middle weights.

    Canelo is selling out arenas in sparring sessions vs welters such as cintron, gomez and matt hatton and wants to fight Mayweather next.

    Mayweather vs guerrero or morales? Pls and no thank you.

    Pacquiao marquez 4? Nuff said.

    Feel free to add to the list. Thank God december is just a week away.

    Boxing at the elite level really is becoming a circus. I blame a lot of it on fighters chasing the money

    "Chavez might fight Cotto or Canelo which are two junior middle weights."

    don't forget Cotto & Chavez are both Top Rank promoted, and if Cotto gets by Marg, who says he doesn't jump up to Middle to have a go @ Chavez Jr

    Walmart got a sale on boxes if tissue. Wipe up those little baby tears u little crying *****. Plain and simple. If a fighter can make certain weight and he can fight in that division.

    Thats how boxing works . If a 215 hw wants to fight at CW say like a chambers are you gonna cry or act like a man and understand what making weight is?

    well IMO another bad offender is someone not mentioned in the original post Tim Bradley

    dude has put together a pretty good resume (wins over Witter, Holt and Lamont Peterson to name a few) and is undefeated to boot

    but when he complains about not being a Superstar already .. it just shows what's wrong with the sport (when fighters try to solely chase big money fights) Bradley's obscure, not very well known, and about as entertaining to watch as whale sh*t. Yet he has the nerve to mouth off that he's not a Superstar yet

    rant over. Well you know how Arum loves his in house fights, plus Cotto-Chavez Jr is another Puerto Rican vs Mexican and no doubt a big fight for Top Rank

    **true Roy Jones Jr. is still fighting, but at least it's been out of the major news, and is relegated to online PPV

    I wouldn't go as far as call boxing f*cked, but as a fan, I've been gradually losing interest every year

    hell one of Pac Man's biggest fights this year was vs Shane Mosley. The same Shane Mosley who got dominated by Mayweather in May of last year.

    sigh

    I like Bradley. Hes a good guy, good fighter and deserves the big money and big fights. Its a shame him and khan didnt get to fight. Im not convinced top rank is going to do a better job with promoting bradley. I wouldnt mind if he got a shot at pacquiao so hopefully everything works out for him.

    December wont fail us. The right fights are happening then
