James Toney/Vitali Kiltschko - I want to see Toney humble his naysayers.

Erik Morales/Manny Pacquiao - I want Morales to show extremist Pac fans that the whole "Pacman beat MAB and MAB beat Morales so that means Pac would crush Morales" thing isn't realistic in boxing.

Miguel Cotto/Kostya Tszyu or Floyd Mayweather - I want Cotto to show the world that he si the next king of boxing...I want to see if the guy I've put my faith into can really beat the elite fighters at 140.

Bernard Hopkins/Felix Trinidad - I want Hopkins to put Tito to sleep and send him into retirement for good.

Hassim Rahman/Wladimir Klitschko - Heh...I think Rahman might actually kill him if he comes in like he did against Meehan.

I also want to see Jermain Taylor/Ricky Hatton/Jeff Lacy in action against a big time threat.

Well, all i can say is that Morales style is perfect for Pacquiao but both guys will have a difficult night. I say Pacquiao in 10th round KO.. what's your prediction?

Fully agree with Hopkins being able to send Tito into retirement bt i wouldn`t want to see it, its a waste of time, Hopkins proved it so there realy is no point to a rematch. I`d prefer to see Rahman vs Vitali more so than Wladimir.

I've had this debate a few to many times but I respect your opinion. It would no doubt be a very violent fight with both guys leaving it in the ring. Morales can counter well, is dangerous from long range, and has superior "boxing" skills. He is too complete for Pacquiao...that being said, I realize the danger with Pacquiaos explosive power but I think Morales would be light and on point. Morales TKO9. Pacquiao's power may be enough to KD morales, but I doubt he would KO him as Morales has a hell of a chin.

Forget for a moment that Pac beat MAB, I think Pac beating Morales is realistic, very very realistic. It's highly possible, you should know better since you know by now that anything can happen on the sqaure canvass. You were probably referring to the odds of PAcman beating Morales and not how realistic it is.

Anywayz, some fights I wanna see next year
Pac vs JMM 2
Pac vs Morales
Pac vs MAB 3
Klitscho vs Byrd
Tito vs Hopkins 2
Cotto vs Tszyu

I think it's the opposite. I think that Pac's style is perfect for Morales. Pac is one dimentional and Morales can do more things. I like Morales by late KO

How many times have you seen Manny fight?? I admit that he looked 1 dimensional against JMM but thats it. He got too excited to knock marquez out with that left hand thats why he looked 1 dimensional.

It took a 1 dimensional Pac to tear Barrera and Ledwaba apart? For those peeps who don't know asian fighters...Sasakul was also p4p best...and he knocked him out too.

the reason why pac,tito,tsyzu and gatti get on most lists
is the power punching..
so why are they being hated on??? i cant see why..

and pac was far more than 1 dimensional against barrera.
after morales's last performance id say hes 1 dimensional too.

stupid...
morales came in to ko barrera and looked a jaded fighter.
so did pac against marquez. first rd being the exception.

gatti has his "one dimensional" fights too
even floyd mayweather has off nights..

so come on..cut these guys some slack.. :eek:

Joan Guzman is still raw....he should fight Juarez. Maybe in two years, then he'll be ready for the bigtime.

I would like to see a tourney set up at Lt. Welterweight like an eight man single eliminator for the undisputed title, Just think about the great fights that could be made if it happened.

Tszyu vs. Chico(if he would move up)

Gatti vs. Floyd Mayweather

Hatton vs. Cotto

V. Harris vs.(either Zab Judah or C. Spinks could drop or Castillo or Juan Diaz could move up like Chico)

I think it could be a serious way to really market the hell out of boxing and bring alot of fans that have grown tired of Don King and Bob Arum's BS over the years. Those two promoters could actually for once deliver something wonderful to the masses of fans out there in all of the world. **** they could put the first round matchups all on the same ppv and charge 150.00$ and I buy it and feel good about doing it.

If pac loses then both "losers" (lol) should fight each other. Then Barrera should fight Pac next to avenge his loss...its inevitable!! :D

hurlex, why do you think pac is likely to lose against jmmm...i see it the other way around. i don't think jmm will do better against pac, in fact he had already fought his best while pac has a lot to do better. the guy trained like hell but still fell short of beating pac. i think most of you guys are underestimating pac and never looks beyond what he can de better as a boxer. the way i see it, pac has all the goods to beat jmm, although jmm is a sound and technically equipped fighter, pac certainly has the advantage in power, speed and stamina. marquez knows this that's why he is alread training in the mountains right now (if indeed the rumor is true). pacquiao said, people keep reminding him of marquez training in the mountain, but he ain't afraid of him. the guy had a point, jmm did that before their first fight and still came out empty-handed.

it very possible after jmm great preformance..especially if pac fight the way he did in his last fight...he needs to learn to pace himself and box more...remember JMM counter punching skills were killing pac by the end of their first fight

but i am a fan of both...its gonna be a great fight..but jmm is not a easy fight for pac at all

Me thinks its the opposite. Erik's style is perfectly suited for Pac. Erik is too slow for Pac and Pac has added a lot of new weapons in his arsenal so stop that one dimensional crap.

Guzman is a very promising fighter but he better test the waters first before plunging into it . . . why not Guzman Vs. Juarez first? That's a solid test for both fighters.
