Jr. Featherweight - Rafael Marquez. He wins the rubber match with Isreal and becomes the undisputed king of the division. Ponce De Leon loses rematch with Caballero.
Featherweight - Chris John. Manny's gone for good and John's still undefeated. Linares moves up to #2.

Welterweight - Floyd Mayweather. In a busy 2008, PBF doesn't fight and people are pissed that he's still considered champion. Clottey becomes champion after TKOing Cintron. Cotto defeats Margarito in a shady "gift" decision in June and then defeats Clottey for his title in the winter. Paul Williams shockingly stops Sugar Shane Mosley. ODLH returns to 147 in May to KO Hatton and then moves back up. Judah KOs Berto, decisions Collazo and claims he's now the "most feared welterweight" in the world.
Jr. Middleweight - Vernon Forrest. Forrest defeats Spinks in what is viewed as the worst title fight ever. Karmazin's career has rebounded nicely with KOs over Alcine and Travis Simms. This becomes one of the worst divisions in boxing.
Middleweight - Kelly Pavlik. JT shocks the world with a TKO of Pavlik in 5. In the rubber match, JT wins a very close decision. The middleweight titles still technically belong to Kelly Pavlik since the fights were above 160. In a big step up, John Duddy gets decisioned by Felix Sturm. Winky Wright decisions Arthur Abraham breathing new life into his career. At a special catchweight of 158 pounds, Felix Trinidad stops ODLH in 11 rounds.
Super Middleweight - Joe Calzaghe. Joe Calzaghe defeats B-Hop in Yankee Stadium but doesn't retire. Lucian Bute KOs Mikkel Kessler in Denmark. Allan Green defeats Sakio Bika in a Contender special. Anthony Mundine decisions Jeff Lacy. Carl Froch defeats Andrade and is calling out for a fight with Bute or JoeCal. Jean Pascal TKOs Edison Miranda and becomes a legit contender in the division. Andre Ward moves into the top 10. Dennis Inkin is still undefeated. Jermain Taylor moves into the division after winning his rivarly with Pavlik. Chad Dawson moves down from light heavy to secure a big fight with JT. This is the hottest division in boxing.
Light Heavyweight - Vacant. RJJ decisions Trinidad in a much better fight than most people expected. B-Hop defeats RJJ in a winter rematch after his loss to JoeCal. RJJ wants a rubber match to end their careers in 2009. Glen Johnson KOs Tarver in the rubber match. Clinton Woods defeats Paul Briggs in a fight of the year candidate. Zsolt Erdei is still undefeated and unknown.
Cruiserweight - Jean Paul Mormeck. Mormeck defeats Bell in a rubber match and then KOs Enzo Maccarinelli. Steve USS Cunningham makes easy work of undefeated Marco Huck. Jonathan Banks moves into the top 5. David Haye moves to heavy..
Heavyweight - Wladimir Klitschko. Klitschko KOs Ibragimov. Sam Peter defeats Oleg Masakev. Povetkin KOs Chambers in a great fight, Klitschko will not fight Povetkin until 2009. Povetkin KOs Valuev. Sam Peter stays busy. Division's undisputed champion is now Wlad with Peter and Povetkin as his greatest challenges.
