Fight You'd Like to

Cap · 12-23-2007, 10:18 AM

Something someone else said made me think of this.

Name the ONE fight you'd most like to see happen in 2008. No cheating like I usually do.

Mine would be Wladimir Klitschko and Ruslan Chagaev for the undisputed heavyweight title (Wlad would have to beat Ibragimov and Ruslan would need to whip Maskaev or Peter first).

Mayweather - Cotto, though PBF says he is on hiatus, there is always hope. I think the right money would do it, though this fight would be hard pressed to generate the cash flow his fights with De La Hoya and Hatton did.

Pavlik v Taylor 2

Mr Big · 12-23-2007, 03:24 PM

Wlad vs PBF.

But seriously, I would have to agree with Cap. Any fight that brings us closer to a unified World Heavyweight Champion works for me.

I'm with the PBF-Cotto camp.

I like that also. Or Floyd vs either of em.

mh2365 · 12-23-2007, 07:32 PM

I'd kind of like to see Hatton vs. Malinaggi also.

Pac Man vs. Valero

Pavlik vs. Kessler

Arreola vs. a contender who is willing to fight him

Chavez Jr. vs. a live competitor live Gomez

Thunder · 12-23-2007, 07:42 PM

Any fight in 2008?

Israel Vazquez-Rafael Marquez V

(I know, that's really three fights . . . screw it, Vazquez-Marquez XXII)

CONN CHRIS · 12-23-2007, 09:45 PM

Esch - Wofford.

Winner to face Estrada.

Coming to a CES card near you.

As long as it's on NBC, this way, you can actually see it

hamed · 12-24-2007, 10:28 PM

I agree with Floyd vs. Cotto but if Floyd goes MMA, then Cotto vs. Margarito.

Also like Pacquaio vs. Valero as mentioned above.

Bronx Bomber 15 · 12-25-2007, 02:19 AM

A little different path for me:
Amir Kahn v. Michael Katsidis: a good "crossroads" bout for both
Khan made such short work of Graham Earl, who in turn went five hard rounds with Katsidis...let's see if the pressure of Katsidis can break down Khan, or if Khans speed & agility are enough at this point to handle Katsidis. This one could tell us a lot about either guy.

Kali Meehan vs Ruslan Chagaev for the WBA HW title. That'd be good.

rdklein · 12-26-2007, 09:21 AM

a87star v MrBig

I think Pavlik would whup him. He's very underated. Pavlik has that long hard jab and killer right hand, I really like him.

you just Heavy biased Cap. Way better boxing down below. When was HW great anyway? I can't remember. When Ali beat Liston or when Tyson beat Spinks?

HW has never been top notch to me. Those "little guys" are the money makers and what keeps the sport alive. Imagine if all we had was HW to watch. Boooooooo!
