Boxing is stepping it the fuck up. Have you noticed all the ‘MMA resulting in the death of boxing’ talk has stopped? If anything I think competition from MMA has helped. I mean you can actually extend the list farther than above going back to (the dismal) Klitschko/Ibragimov four weeks ago and Pavlik/Taylor II the week before that. Seriously, I couldn’t be prouder to be a fan of boxing right now.
Oh, and I'll say Pac in 9. |
Don't forget that in the next few months up 'till June, we're also gonna see:
Katsidis/Casamayor- For the Ring/Lineal Lightweight championship
Calzaghe/Hopkins- For the Ring/Lineal Light Heavyweight championship
Cotto/Gomez- For the WBA Welterweight title
Cintron/Margarito- For the IBF Welterweight title and a shot to unify
Kessler/Miranda- Just for the hell of it
Mijares/Montiel- WBA/WBC Super Flyweight unification bout
Mosley/Judah- Just for the hell of it
