What fights in 2008 could top 2007?

Pavlik-Calzaghe
Pacman-JMM


Floyd-Cotto

Until Floyd beats Cotto and he beat a green Cotto and dodged a prime margo/williams :rofl :good

 

Wlad v Vitali.

For all the belts.

 

I think the sleeper fights of the year are:
the Big O v. Sam Peter
the white wolf v. niko Valuev
Chad Dawson v. the road warrior

These fights seem to be flying under the radar and are very good style matchups

 

Floyd - Cotto

pac - jmm

 

I'll stick to the fights that aren't signed/potentially could happen...

Mayweather vs. Cotto
Calzaghe vs. Hopkins
Pavlik vs. Abraham
Marquez vs. Guzman
Pacquiao vs. Guzman
Klitschko vs. Chagaev
Peter vs. V Klitschko
Maskaev vs. V Klitschko
Haye vs. Maccarinelli
Calzaghe vs. Dawson
Kessler vs. Bute
Forrest vs. Spinks
Hatton vs. Witter
Hatton vs. Malignaggi
Torres vs. Ortiz
Juan Diaz vs. Katsidis
Juan Diaz vs. Pacquiao
Marquez vs. Vazquez III

 

its annoying to only say the boxers nickname.

 

Forrest vs Spinks? Dude...

 

I know, I know...

But the light middleweight division needs some big fights. This would offer the unification of two title belts between two good fighters. It would probably lack excitement, but it would be interesting to see how both fought eachother and what adjustments they would make during the fight. It would be a step in the right direction for the division as a whole.

 

Kessler V. Dawson would be a good fight also.

 

Agreed

Who would you favor? And I was curious what separates Dawson from the supernatural elite?

 

good list of potential fights

 

Vitali vs. Anyone
Abraham vs. Pavlik
PBF vs. Cotto
Margarito vs. Cotto
Vernon Forrest vs. ODLH
Darchinyan vs. Donair II
Arce Vs. Darchinyan
Hatton Vs. Cotto
Miranda vs. Lacy

 

I think Kessler will spark him, personally, and Dawson is one of my current favourite's, I like him more than Kessler.

Dawson is not a Supernatural, he's a definite P4P elite fighter, but he's also vulnerable in ways that true Supernatural's are not as he has flaws. Also, Dawson is very quick, but he's not a blaze by any means like some of these guys can fire off and then it really just comes down to the fact that the guy is excellent in most area's, just not phenominal in anything.

You know how you say a guy's 'good at everything but not great at anything', let's step it up a notch, Dawson's 'excellent at everything, not Supernatural at anything'.:yep

 

If these 4 fights are made next year, I will be VERY happy with boxing in 2008:

Povetkin-Klitschko
Cotto-Mayweather
Guzman-Pacquiao/Marquez
Dawson-Calzaghe

I can't wait for Vasquez-Marquez 3.. I almost forgot that it's already set for March. Next year could turn out to be even better than this one was if the right fights are made. There is also a possibility of some true superfights, unlike Floyd-Oscar/Hatton.
