June is the big month this year

Corrales-Castillo III Taylor-Wright Tarver-Hopkins June is going to be the motherload for boxing fans this year. I gotta say March was a huge letdown for me because Lacy got annihilated and Toney performed poorly. April will include monster beatdowns in Brewster KOing Lyakovich, Wlad KOing Byrd, and Mayweather KOing Judah. None of those fights should make it to the championship rounds. But Corrales-Castillo III will be nothing short of a war, Taylor and Wright will be a chess match that determines the future of the Middleweight division probably for the next 5 years, and Tarver gets to add another name to his resume as the Legend Killer. Can't wait! Til then, enjoy the beatdowns.

Corrales-Castillo III Taylor-Wright Tarver-Hopkins Corrales-Castillo III is not interesting after the first two fights. There is no enigma left. Tarver will hand Hopkins another loss. Hopkins seemed one-dimensional against Taylor. Tarver will take care of that. I do not think it is that interesting a fight. Taylor-Wright is an ok fight, as there is a question there -- how good really is Taylor?

Corrales-Castillo and Pac-Morales are great rubber matches. A lot of rep rides on Winky-Taylor. Some other great matches, most of it not on ppv too, so thats a big bonus. On the downside- I dont think the heavy's will recify themselves this year, certainly got off to bad start with Toney-Rahman. Judah-Mayweather and Hopkins-Tarver shouldnt be happening, not ppv worthy in the least. Calzaghe takes a big win and starts spouting off wanting lame money matches out of his division.

June will be a huge month for boxing.Castillo-Corrales will not dissapoint and Taylor-Wright for middleweight supremacy.With Brock-Ibragimov and Julio-Quintano on the same night this will just be a great month.Also the slaughter of Mallenaji by Cotto will be fun to watch.

You forgot Cotto v. Mallenagi. Great year for boxing. Morales v. Pacquiao III, by the end of this year.
