How can people complain about boxing now?
CC same thing was on my mind
I bet the 80's and 70's had quite a few years like this.
I remember 2000 being a real good year with Barrera Moralez, DLH Mosley and Trinidad Vargaz. But I don't think that year was as good as this one. Defenately the best year of this decade, don't know about the best ever since, well I am not an imortal ;)
well the unifcation is off, but wat if roy can make a combakc this year? that would be good
Witnessing Vic Darchinyan got KTFO this year is hands down, the greatest year for boxing, ever!
this is what i've been thinking since the calzaghe-kessler and mayweather - hatton match ups have been made!
the floyd ricky fight i have been waiting for 2 years! and the calzaghe kessler fight for over a year. apart from that its still been awesome.
i think boxing has woken up again, the best are now fighting the best. i think guys like maccarnelli need to grow some balls and move up to Heavyweight. also hay-mormeck is gonna be great. imo hay destroys mormeck inside 3 round. the guy hits far too hard. one right hand and its night night for mormeck.
U had to add that didnt u!!!! :lolololol:Quote:

;D I couldn't help it.Quote:

It's a great year.... not one of the best. Hell, don't ruin this year by even saying that. Makes me think of all the negative parts of the year and how you guys don't know your boxing history. :) ;)
Barrera Marquez tops the list.
Why would he ruin the year for saying that ::**Quote:

I already wrote the answer to that. But it's a great year.Quote:

I like this year too. Still, matches like this weekend are in the top 5 of this year.
Too bad not that many watch showtime. I hope Vasquez knocks out Rafeal. ;) (... and if I were a betting man... :) )
