    Biggest weekend of the year featuring top dogs in easily the best division in boxing. Anyone who isn't looking forward to that weekend doesn't know ****.

    Another thing is that you get some fighters, like Berto, who is 3 weeks away from fighting...and doesn't have an opponent yet. WTH man? Berto is fun to watch.. but gimme SOMETHING man. You got a PPV card one month out and they don't have the card finalized. In a year with so many PPV..how do you expect people to pay for that? The Pac fight will probably flop badly.

    A decent fight like Rios Chaves and all we talk about is the reffing? Such a shame.

    I agree. This has been a shockingly bad year.

    This year has been pretty average and thats being nice.

    Thankfully the Flyweight division is as hot as i can remember and is delivering the fights we all want to see, its a shame that they dont get the paydays(Garcia probably got more money to beat Salka than Yaegashi and Gonzalez combined purse for their mega fight against each other) and the attention that the higher weights fighters get.

    :good

    Flyweight's the one division in boxing that's in the middle of another Golden Era. These don't come around that often, and should be appreciated when they do.
