Which fights do you hope to see in 2010?

I'll breakdown mine by weightclass.

Heavyweight: Vitali vs. Haye - The press and hype are there, the titles are there, and the public interest is there. Too much momentum for this not to happen.

Cruiserweight: Adamek vs. Cunningham II - I appreciate Adamek testing the waters at heavyweight, but let's be honest he's way too small and not nearly elusive enough to beat either of the brothers Klit. I would to see what was a very close and exciting cruiserweight battle.

Light Heavyweight: B-Hop vs. Dawson - Does the king keep his crown or is it a time for a changing of the guard. Both guys bring something special to the table. This is a fight that truly should happen.

Super Middleweight: Bute vs. the winner of the Super 6. - I know the tournament should last well into 2011, but a boy can dream can't he? Bute will probably be left out in the cold at least until winter 2010 to get the scraps from the two eliminated fighters out of the round robin section.

Middleweight: Pavlik vs. Sturm - Gotta crown a true champ here. I am curious to see if Pavlik will be able to use his hands like he used to. If he can't put full force into his punches he will be pretty much useless in the ring.

Light Middleweight: Martinez vs. Williams II - Get it down to where the fight should have been, had Williams not been preparing for Pavlik.

Welterweight: Pacquiao vs. Mayweather - no need to explain any further.

Light Welterweight: Bradley vs. Khan - I think this would be an exciting fight, you can make a case for both winning this in a very big way.

Lightweight: Guzman vs. Valero - Yes Guzman looked like ass against Funeka, but without the crazy reach of Funeka the equation changes defensively for Guzman, who could still cause fits for the slugger that is Valero. Valero well we know the power he brings to the table.

Super Featherweight: Humberto Soto vs. Roman Martinez - Puerto Rico vs. Mexico a war for the ages, however you look at this it's going to be an exciting fight.

Featherweight: Gamboa vs. JML - which one was rushed more? Both guys now have big question marks about their chins, both guys try to set records for punch output, gotta love this matchup

Super Bantamweight: Caballero vs. Nishioka - Caballero has to be one of the most intimidating guys at this weight class, he's awkward as hell and has a ridiculous reach. Nishioka has some great attributes the most important if this fight happens is his straight as an arrow punching.

Bantamweight: Hasegawa vs. Moreno - A fight at the highest technical level, speed chess in the ring, a fight that with the right exposure could put a big spotlight on this overlooked gem of a weightclass.

Super Flyweight: Darchinyan vs. Cazares - Should be good action back and forth, be great to see who es mas macho.

Flyweight: Koki Kameda vs. Kaovichit - Kameda has phenomenal skill, but has not had the pull to fight a contender until this year when he showed his talent wasn't just against tomato cans when he schooled Naito. Kaovichit, may not be getting any favors from the judges, but he leaves it in the ring and brings a real challenge to the table.

Light Flyweight: Viloria vs. Segura - IF Viloria maintains his interest in the sport, which it looks like he has lately this is an exciting fight. Segura brings his awkward leaning/roll style against the excellent counter punching of Viloria.

Strawweight: Roman Gonzalez vs. Sithsamerchai - There are no bigger names than these two at straw, and with good reason the skill level these guys have shown lately puts them miles past their competition.

B-Hop/RJJ

Mayweather/Pacman

Khan/Bradley

Pavlik/Williams

Williams/Martinez 2

Haye/Wladimir

that's probably the top ones.. although I could list another 20 fights easily.

Feel free to list more, there are no rules here. You really still want to see B-Hop/RJJ?

Heavyweight- Haye vs any Klitschko
Cruiserweight- Bhop vs Adamek
Lightheavyweight- Danny Green vs Glen Johnson
Supermiddleweight-Bute vs Pavlik
Middleweight-Pavlik vs Wright
Junior middle- Williams vs Martinez 2
Welter- Pacman vs PBF
Junior welter- Hatton vs JMM
Lightweight-JMM vs Valero
Jr Lightweight- Soto vs Guerrero
Featherweight- John vs Gamboa
Jr Feather- Juanma vs Caballero
Bonus fights- Vlad vs Toney
PBF vs Sugar Shane
Pac vs JMM III

Bradley vs Maidana

Kahn vs Holt or Alexander

Berto (if he beats Mosley) vs Cotto or Clottey

Pavlik vs Williams I still wanna see it.

JMM vs Valero

Juanma vs Caballero

Jr. Flyweights - Giovanni Segura vs. Rodel Mayol - normally i would have opted for segura and viloria but i want to see that little rat cheat mayol go down in a big way. segura by ugly KO.

Jr. Flyweights - Ulises Solis vs. Brian Viloria - this rematch might actually happen. i know solis wants viloria bad and he should secure the rematch. solis by UD.

Super Flyweights - Nonito Donaire vs. Vic Darchinyan II - has darchinyan improved his defense enough to withstand donaire's counterpunching? who knows but right now i think the fight is a pick'em.

Bantamweights - Abner Mares vs. Marvin Sonsona - two good prospects against each other by a vacated title. mares will school sonsona and possible KO him.

Bantamweights - Hozumi Hasegawa vs. Yonnhy Perez - big fan of perez and i think he's got the goods to beat hasegawa. for one, he has the skills and chin to hold off this japanese little monster. if fight is in japan then perez needs a KO.

Featherweights - Chris John vs. Celestino Caballero - finally someone to beat the crap out of chris john. caballero by nasty KO (even in thailand) but that's if john doesn't run all night like he did against juan manuel marquez.

Featherweights - after caballero takes it out of john i would like to see him fight juanma lopez in a mega-match. undecided on outcome right now.

Super Featherweights - Robert Guerrero vs. Humberto Soto - this would be a great battle. big fan of both fighters but i think soto might take this one.

Lightweights - Juan Manuel Marquez vs. Edwin Valero - great matchup between a great HOFer and a great puncher. if marquez doesn't get caught he should outbox valero and possibly TKO him late.

Jr. Welterweights - Amir Khan vs. Timothy Bradley - Bradley ain't no Salita, period. bradley takes this one and wins a decision even in britain.

Jr. Welterweights - Timothy Bradley vs. Victor Ortiz - on paper this looks like a rematch in Bradley's favor but ortiz can also box and he has the power to give bradley all kinds of problems. still, bradley by decision.

Welterweights - Saul "Canelo" Alvarez vs. Andre Berto - i would like to see this fight in late 2010 after alvarez gets a few more fights under his belts. alvarez definitely has the skills and power to beat berto but might not be ready until 2011.

jr. Middleweights - Alfredo Angulo vs. James Kirkland - this would be an all-out war. both have great power but i think kirkland has the faster hands and better boxing skills. expect multiple knockdowns in this fight with kirkland possibly stopping angulo.

Jr. Middleweights - Paul Williams vs. Sergio Martinez II - why not? i think everyone would love to see this one again but this time for Martinez' title!

Middleweights - Paul Williams vs. Kelly Pavlik - if not martinez then williams could fight pavlik for his middleweight title. i used to think pavlik wouldn't have a chance until williams fought martinez. it showed me that williams can be hurt and pavlik his much harder than martinez. pavlik by late, late TKO.

Lucian Bute vs. Andre Ward - because of the super six tournament going on i think this fight could happen in 2011. what a war! great fighters but i've got to give it to ward in a great fight.

Jean Pascal vs. Chad Dawson - this would be a great fight as well. pascal i think is vastly underrated and i think he would give dawson hell. still, i think dawson would probably win by decision.

Wladimir Klitschko vs. David Haye - forget vitali vs. haye. vitali is showing signs of age. i want to see two dynamic KO artists fight each other. if wladimir doesn't get hit early he should be able to handle haye.

The Fighters Ill Like To See Fight

Moreno vs. Hasegawa - Will Hasegawa ever have a reason to leave Japan?
Vic vs. Nonit - It's well cooked up now and somewhat over cooked but we gotta see it.

Adamek Vs. Solis (should be a good fight)'

Heavyweight

Haye vs Vitali/Wladimir - Either would be a massive fight & a win for Haye would be great because it would set up a fight with the other brother.

Adamek vs Arreola - Would be a great war & despite Chris' size advantage, I think he's vulnerable to speed. A 50/50 in my eyes.

Cruiserweight

Adamek vs Cunningham II - no explanation needed

Huck vs Afolabi II - Was a good close fight first time round & if Ola can up his workrate, he'll win the rematch.

Light-Heavyweight

Dawson vs Cloud - I think this would be a good fight & I'd rather see this than Dawson/Hopkins which would be a bore imo & I wish Hopkins would just retire.

Pascal vs Bute - This would be an awesome fight in Canada & I think has the potential to be a classic.

Mack vs Cloud - Would be a war, although I think Cloud outlasts him.

Super-Middleweight

Bute vs Pavlik - Pavlik needs to take on a challenge eventually.

Andrade vs Stieglitz II - Andrade deserves a title shot against the man he beat after taking the most difficult challenges in trying to win a world title.

Middleweight

Pavlik vs Williams/Martinez/Sturm - Same as the Bute/Pavlik fight

Light-Middleweight

Williams vs Martinez II - I thought Martinez was robbed first time, he deserves a rematch at the weight it should have been at.

Alfredo Angulo vs Miguel Cotto - I'd like to see Cotto try win a belt at a 3rd weight & I think this would be a great fight.

Welterweight

Pacquiao/Mayweather winner vs Mosley/Berto winner - As both of these are set I think the winners should fight each other. I think it would be a great way to bow out as well for any of Mayweather, Pacquiao or Mosley.

Cotto vs Clottey II - Basically same sentiments as Williams/Martinez II

Light-Welterweight

Khan vs Hatton - Would be huge in Britain

Khan vs Bradley - Would in many mind be for the linear championship should Pacquiao have vacated.

Hatton vs Marquez - Just so I can see Marquez live & watch Hatton KO'd again.

Urango vs Maidana - War

Alexander vs Ortiz - A chance to see what both are made of.

Lightweight

Funeka vs Valero - Would have said Guzman/Valero, but Funeka 'won' so he gets the fight.

Katsidis vs Mitchell - Is Katsidis ever in a bad fight? No, & Mitchell rarely is so this could be great.

Super-Featherweight

Soto vs Martinez - Mexico/PR rivalry is just too good to ignore

Featherweight

Lopez vs Gamboa - Would be an excellent fight

John vs Caballero - Caballero's reach would mean John gets drawn into a fight.

Marquez vs Vazquez IV & V should Marquez win the 4th fight.

Super-Bantamweight

Rendall Munroe vs Bernard Dunne - Good fight over here

Bantamweight

Hasegawa vs anyone in the division - I think Hasegawa is an excellent fighter & can beat anyone in the class. If he comes to the US people will start to realize just how good he is.

Agbeko vs Morel - I just want to see Morel KO'd.

Agbeko vs Perez II - A rematch to a great first fight.

Super-Flyweight

Darchinyan vs Donaire II - Whoever gets KO'd I'll be happy ;D

Flyweight

Koki Kameda vs Pongsaklek - Kameda batters him imo, but don't like Pongsaklek's hideous opposition so would like seeing it.

Light-Flyweight

Calderon vs Viloria - A win for Calderon should see him retire a 1st ballot HoFer. I think this is a great fight & one I can't wait to see.

Strawweight

Gonzalez vs Sithsamerchai - What Killer said.
