Because I'd love to see Wlad smoke Toney...always have wanted to...always will.

Brock vs Brewster would be the only fight I'd even remotely even care about seeing.
Curiously...for Hasim not to be a boxing genius...you sure do want to see him an awful lot. ;)
Mesi vs anyone is a bone head idea for boxing.

Re: Fights we must see in 2006
"The Cat" is nearer 52/53
Doesn't Sergio write for this site anymore? Glad to see how impressed he was with Calzaghe, but as he says, you'd have to be a right pratt not to have been impressed.
Fights Id like to see
Hatton - Castillo/Cotto
Barrera - Pac
Calzaghe - Froch
Haye - Maccrinelli
Harrison - Arthur
Khan - Mitchell
Valuev - Toney (for the comedy value)

Re: Fights we must see in 2006
Gotta agree with you skel. Even through seeing a lot of Haye's amateur career and training at the same gym as him, I'm still not sold on him being champ. He has AMAZING potential, can punch stupidly hard, I just believe he's got to get his conditioning sorted. His Stamina has always been a question and the rounds he took off last week showed he isnt quite there, with that last bit he could do well.
Who I'm more sold on, and I've got to say I'm biased here because he's a friend and I trained at the same gym with him also is Anthony Small (he was on the televised part of the undercard of Haye last week). Ive loved his style since the first Amateur fight I saw of his and the guy's charisma just makes any event he's involved in fun to watch. I'll be excited to see more of his fights this year, he's 10-0 and word has it he may get a shot at the British title by the end of this year/early 2007. Anyone else catch him on the undercard, any thoughts?
Re: Fights we must see in 2006
...Skel I understand Carl was perhaps lucky the first time but the thing is usually this is a sign of things to come, so put Haye in with a guy with a chin and some stamina and he'll have a shot
