    When was the last time that there was a year as good as this one in boxing? So far we have Marquez-Vasquez, Pacquiao-Barrera, Pavlik-Miranda, Pavlik-Taylor, Cotto-Judah, Bika-Codrington, Earl-Katsidis and Floyd-DLH. We still have Cotto-Mosley, Floyd-Hatton, and Haye-Mormeck.

    I only mentioned Earl-Katsidis because of its excitement level. I don't think amonsat-katsidis is a highly anticipated fight.

    Don't forget Calzaghe-Kessler, Hopkins-Wright, Marquez-Barrera. The latter 2 may not be the most exciting fight but before they happened, boxing fans were intruiged at how the fight will turn out.

    I think this year will break all boxing PPV records again. OLDH-PBF & Hatton-PBF would have made sure of that :)
