WOW! It' only March and 2008 is looking to KO 2007

It definitely has the potential, started well, needs to progress as it is already, bring it on!! :good Im ready for it :bbb

 

:happy :happy :happy

 

Also Mac - Haye.

We also got

Glen Johnson - Chad Dawson
Clinton Woods - Antonio Tarver
Joe Calzaghe - Bernard Hopkins

in the light-heavyweight division in the next few weeks, followed by

Mikkel Kessler - Edison Miranda
Kermit Cintron - Antonio Margarito
O'Neil Bell - Tomasz Adamek
Joan Guzman - Alex Arthur
Shane Mosley - Zab Judah

All on the horizon before June!!!

Looking later into the year we can look forward to Ricky Hatton's comeback, which hopefully will mean fighting Junior Witter sooner rather than later. We also have a mooted fight between Miguel Cotto and Ricardo Mayorga, which would be a potential fight of the year coz Mayorga still is a beast at 147lbs. Oscar De La Hoya having his testimonial year, although I'm not interested in Mayweather - De La Hoya II. Then we get the return of James Toney, in the battle of the bulge(ing waistline) against Danny Williams. I want to see hoe much Toney has left, and I'd like to see him fight David Haye too. And lest we forget we also have reasonably exciting Heavyweight prospects on the horizon, with David Haye, Alex Povetkin and Odliander Solis stepping up to challenge big Wlad.

Down the line I'd like to see Vernon Forrest fight Oscar De La Hoya at light-middleweight. Forrest deserves a big payday. I'd like to see Darnell Wilson beat Firat Aslan and get his shot with Enzo Mac. I'd like to see Jermain Taylor and Jeff Lacy, because at this point it looks like the only fight they can both take, and I'd like to see Joe Calzaghe fight Clinton Woods, presuming they both win, coz Woods is the overlooked man in British boxing and deserves his 15 minutes of fame.

Then we get onto the 130-135lbs weigh divisions. We have Gamboa, Khan, Diaz, Katsidis, Casamayor, Pacman, Guzman, and possibly Gavin Rees if he moves down, all in the same division. That looks like the best division in boxing at the moment.

 

indeed

 

this should be a better year

 

I love boxing.

 

i hope 2008 is better, i'm still stuck in iraq and keep missing the damn fights. something better make up for missing all the fights live

 

Agreed 2008 is looking mighty fine!!!!!!

 

2008 is indeed looking pretty good, but in terms of PPV #s 2007 is surely going to win out unless there are some big fights made for late '08

 

Shhh... pipe down everybody. The sport is dying, remember? :-(

 

Haye-Mormeck, Peter-Toney, Wlad-Brewster, Mayweather-De la Hoya, Mayweather-Hatton, Pacquiao-Barrera, Cotto-Mosley, Calzaghe-Kessler, Vasquez-Marquez, etc.

Maybe 2008 will have more entertainning fights, but 2007's fights were bigger and greater. I prefer the second.

 

Mitchell vs. Johanneson was a quality fight as well
