Once we hit September the boxing calendar usually goes on fire. I'm wondering what's in store this year. We know that we will get 2 big time Super Six fights plus Kessler-Green. But, other than the obvious fight, what do you see getting made? Will we get Alexander-Bradley? Will Martinez rematch Williams? Will Khan fight Maidana, JMM or someone else? Will Mosley fight? Will Rafael Marquez get a fight with Lopez or Darch? David Haye Wtf? If we get May-Pac then it's golden. But if we don't, I hope some real big fights get made.
Martinez at this point is saying that he will fight whoever HBO wants him to fight. Gotta figure that is going to be either PWill or a decent 154 pounder along the lines of Dzinziruk, Angulo or Margarito. Hopefully it is PWill, but, I wouldn't mind seeing a Dzinziruk fight as tactical as it might be. I'm starting to get the feeling that we might see Bradley-Berto. Not sure it will be this fall, but, they seem to be circling around each other. Bradley testing out 147. Berto saying he can make a catchweight fight between 140 and 147. Gotta figure that Mayweather and Pacquiao will have a big fight even if they don't fight each other. Pac-Margarito maybe. Not sure who Mayweather will fight, but, I ain't buying the Martinez talk. Too dangerous. Gotta figure Golden Boy will do a Mexican PPV card mid September. Looking like W. Klit-Povetkin in the fall. I would bet at this point that we get a Calzaghe-BHop rematch. We'll get the return of Pavlik. Bute in a fall fight. But, I don't think we are going to get anything that great this fall to be honest. I think the big matchups are going to hit in FY11. Juanma-Gamboa Big 140 pound matchups: Bradley-Alexander, Khan-Ortiz Haye vs one of the Klits I bet we don't get PWill-Martinez until next year either Bute-Pavlik
Well its boxing so you gotta figure there will be some disapointments. Its certain we get Green vs Kessler, Ward vs Dirrell (awesome fight) and Abraham vs Froch in August. We need fights like Mayweather vs Pacquiao, Martinez vs Williams II, any of the combo with Bradley-Alexander-Khan-Ortiz-Maidana.
When you stop and think about it, there's so many great match-ups to be made right now, but aside from the Super-6 touney, (and even they have their issues) most of the big fights are caught up in some kind of bull****, soap-opera, cluster-**** again! Let's hope the power's that be get their **** together and make things happen.
