    I like your picks

    Here's my top 8 i posted a while back. However now that we are a little further removed from Abraham destroying Miranda, I would slide #1 down to #5 and bump the others 1 spot up

    8. Yuriorkis Gamboa vs Edwin Valero

    Fireworks. Two undefeated prospects, one an athletically gifted olympic gold medalist with a ton of amateur experience, the other a hard hitting southpaw with a string of 24 straight knockout wins in 24 fights. Someone's 0 must go! lets get it on


    7. Jorge Linares vs Chris John

    These two tall and skilled undefeated featherweight title holders need to get it on to determine who is the best in the division and maybe even crack the top10 p4p with a convincing win.


    6. Antonio Margarito vs Daniel Santos

    Revisiting the Puerto Rico vs Mexico rivalry... Two fights between these 3 time world champions at WW at Super WW have left the issue of who has the upper hand unresolved. With both of them coming off arguably the biggest win in their careers, can they settle the score once and for all?


    5. Kelly Pavlik vs Joe Calzaghe

    Ring magazine titles at 160, 168, and 175. Strength and power vs speed and skill. Two undefeated top10 p4p fighters with incredible stamina and contrasting styles in what woud surely make for a memorable fight with alot at stake. This fight also brings back the US vs UK rivalry which is always alot of fun.


    4. Antonio Margarito vs Paul Williams rematch

    Coming off the biggest win of his career, can Margarito unify the titles at 147 and avenge his loss to Paul Williams? Or does Paul Williams have Margarito's number? Who can lay claim to the throne of the Welterweight division? Great fight between two top welterweights in the world!


    3. Nonito Donaire vs Cristian Mijares

    Fast hands and a ton of skills. This is sure to be a classic matchup. Can Donaire's physical attributes and counterpunching skills surpass Mijares' experience and ring generalship, or will the vetaran champion have the upper hand? The winner of this fight is definately one of the best fighters in the world.


    2. Manny Pacquiao vs the winner of Campbell vs Guzman.

    A unification fight between the always exciting WBC champion Manny Pacquiao and the man with 3 out of 4 of the lightweight titles. Can Pac further solidify his claim as p4p king by taking the reigns of another division?


    1. Arthur Abraham vs Kelly Pavlik

    Two hard punching undefeated middleweights with a ton of confidence. Both destroyed the hard hitting Edison Miranda. Pavlik is the champ and Abraham is the clear cut #1 challenger. Can Pavlik continue his reign of the middleweight division in this international mega-fight, or will King Arthur live up to his nickname?




    yes i do get bored at work

    I might be among the minority, but I'd actually like to see Haye-Klitschko. Only after Haye beats a heavy or two to prove he belongs.

    JMM-Juan Diaz
    One is young and relentless while the other one is old and wise in the boxing game.

    I think this would be a huge war. I would actually favor JMM. Maybe too much skill for Juan Diaz. But then again what fighter has made Diaz box and not slug it out? No one. Campbell beat Juan at his own game which is whats amazing about that win.
