Haye-Klitschkos (Mostly the Wlad fight, the Vitali fight would have been a sanctioned execution, not a fight).
Floyd-Anyone decent (Floyd has consistently ducked meaningful fights above 135)
Pavlik-Williams (I feel for Pavlik and hope he recovers but this was Williams time to show why everyone has been running from him for the last few years).
Haye and that the Pavlik vs. AA fight didn't happen.
I would have to sayt the way Kanye rudely grabbed the mic from my mija talyor swift after receiving her moon man and talking jive like only a fool can. Kanye wake up the Beyonce video was the worst one of all time

Your wrong. That was Mosley.

The biggest dissappointments this year:
Prospects - We've seen many prospects go down this year, Ortiz, Angulo, Arreola, Shemunov, etc.
Kelly Pavlik - only fought once in 2009 against a mediocre contender (Rubio).
Hometown decisions - There's been far too many questionable hometown decisions this year all around the world.
David Haye - By the time he fights Valuev, it will have been a year since he beat Monte "No guns" Barrett in his first fight since moving up from Cruiserweight.
Shane Mosley - Since his big win over Margarito, Shane has been inactive due to the fact that he's hunting for a big fight. Shane's no spring chicken and the buzz from his surprising victory over Marg's is almost dead.
and finally, the most dissappointing thing in boxing this year:
HBO
Boxing fans were subjected to less quality events, more pricey PPV shows, and more lopsided fights. HBO had a bad year, even for bad economy standards. Many fights have been postponed and cancelled, others surrounded by controversy and questionable match making. Never did it seem more apparent that boxing's #1 show in town was making mistakes than the Froch-Taylor situation. Instead of making an investment in a great fight, boxing made an investment in a fighter (Chad Dawson). Now I'm a huge Dawson fan, but HBO isn't serving the boxing fans justice when they push a Dawson-Tarver rematch down our throats. The first fight was one-sided and the rematch would be also. Meanwhile Showtime picked up the Froch-Taylor fight and have been on a roll ever since.
Not only that, but look at the names I mentioned above, how many are HBO fighters? I'll save you the trouble, 6 out of 7. And the one fighter that isn't an HBO fighter, Shemunov, is probably the least dissappointing of the bunch.
HBO had better step up it's game, because they're fighters are spiraling downward in a similar fashion.
One thing I know for sure, I'm glad I subscribed to Showtime.
The Punisher not getting his shot at the 160 championship!!Everyone always screams who has he fought,but he can't get a fight with the stars cause they all shook!!Then when he does fight someone who is willing,they call the guy a bum because the Punisher makes easy work of em!!
Mayweather has noticed his name mentioned alot in this thread. He has a message:

Idiot gayweather fan.
Gayweather is the biggest disappointment in boxing this 2009.
Imagine him fighting a guy 2 weight classes below him and still not putting him out.
Then proceeds to avoid top WW, his own weightclass.
Idiot gayweather coward.
Don't forget he also didn't honor a contract weight limit to give a fair shake. lol
1) Haye opening his mouth and ducking the Klits
2) Ortiz quitting
3) Floyd Sr. unable to teach Hatton how to survive 3 rounds against Pacquiao.
4) Mayweather beating Marquez but still not showing interest to any true WW showdown.
5) Roy Jones VS Hopkins II signed. So Hopkins VS Adamek won't happen.
Well said my friend, well said. :boxing:
i do get your point though that fight was a disappoiment in terms of how long the fight lasted
i think it was a shopworn version of hatton against a great fighter who was a shockingly bad style match-up for him also,in hindsight it was easier too predict than i thought
we will have too agree too disagree
i respect every fighter that gets in the ring especially when they make it too the top,working hard for the sport i love.
Well said my friend, well said. :boxing:
