I don't even know if these are events.

Maybe you should call it 1 fight you want to see, 1 question you want answered, 1 washed up has been, 1 guy who thinks he is worth too much money to get his hands dirty, and 1 general statement that really doesn't have to do with anything, but is a result of the first 4 things.

You really need to work on your list writing skills.

When I first read this I was angry but then I relized you right for the most part. The title doesn't really match my list, thanks for the constructive criticism. :cool:

I share your opinion definetely on 3 and 5. I didn't even see any coverage on ESPN sportcenter at all this week. I don't know maybe I didn't watch the whole broadcast. Did any one see any coverage on ESPN?

Would like to see some superfights in the 140lb divison to see who is truly the undisputed king of light-welter

Tszyu - Floyd/Hatton/Cotto

Gatti - Cotto/Hatton

Cotto - Hatton

there's some great fights out there

And also a unification of the HW division.

Yes, the 140lb division is looking mighty hot right now. Yet so many great fights might not happen due to property rights and what not. Tszyu-Cotto would be a dreamfight, as would Tszyu-Gatti.

I want to see James Toney fight for a main heavyweight title. Vitali would be a good fight as i think Toney is the only man in the division who has the potential to beat him.

That is my dream right there. If these guys keep digging up 35 year old former 130 pounders to pad their records with names, all hell is going to break lose.
