..BOXINGS Biggest Disappointment of 2010...

Personally, what was yours? Was it a fighter you thought highly of? Perhaps one that just sucks and you'd like to call out? Was it a match that didn't live up? Was it a fight that didn't get made? What was it for you? Personally, for me, it boils down to three things. 1. Victor Ortiz. Didn't step up well, again. Didn't lose, but didn't cement anything, either. I've supported the guy and will continue to, but I'd like to see more of him in 2011. 2. Wladimir Klitschko-David Haye not being made. Just once, can I get a Heavyweight championship bout that really matters? Please? 3. Shane Mosley being Manny Pacquiao's next opponent. Not the worst, but certainly not the best choice, either. Would have preferred either Mayweather, I guess, or even Marquez or Berto. What about you guys?

Pacquiao Floyd (to a lesser extent) Haye Povetkin Hatton (for not getting back in the gym) Morales (for not staying retired) Castillo (for not keeping his word on retiring) Travis Walker (for not retiring. Dude needs to think about his health) Kotelnik getting robbed

Valero going really sucked Seeing the question about Ortiz being answered; that despite all that talent he's just a mediocre boxer The rest of the year went as expected though Agree 100 percent about Valero. I keep watching his Demarco fight hoping he will come back, that was one hell of a performance. Who knows where the roof was for this guy? His little brother is 3-0 with 3 knockouts, so lets see if its in the blood.

he's just a plani old disappointment. if valero didn't go down, boxing would have sick matchups scheduled. he'd prob be fighting jmm, winner of timmy and devon, or maidana next (khan would crawl back up in mother's vagina before he fought valereo That what people are implying before Khan fought Madiana. After they fought, people just said Madiana's power is overrated. I do agree if Valero didn't go down, we would have seen lots of sick matchups including pac-valero ... assuming valero kept on winning.

1. Suicide death of Edwin Valero after murdering his wife. 2. Mayweather-Pacquiao failed negotiations (twice). Media and fans are still talking about it even there is no chance (so far) for the fight to get made. 3. String of poor judges and bad refs. 4. Lack of innovative/strategic promotional events. Great fights such as marquez-katsidis, martinez-williams 2, khan-maidana, sotto-antillon only attracted around 5,000 folks for each fight (live gate)... however, garbage fights (according to hardcore fans) such as pacquiao-margarito and hopkins-pascal made significant live gate numbers... hence, garbage fights sell more than great fights?...

He'd probably give them some fits but I expect Dawson and Hopkins to clearly beat him. I don't care about Pascal, either. He sucks to me, too. I'm clearly aware that he beat Dawson, though. :nonono: I agree with this entire post. I wanted Dawson to beat Pascal and was shocked at how it turned out. I was very suprised to see how Pascal fought like a ***** against Hops.

Valero getting murdered was the worst thing. Then its Fraud being a pussy, Pacroid being a disgraced cherrypicking cheater, Dirrell being a faggot, Ward being a fouling cunt, and that's about it. I wouldn't include Dawson because I always knew he was a dud. Tell it how it is brother.. preach, preach...lol

Cloud's garbage, man. I wouldn't call him garbage. He's not the most skilled, but he's a tough fight for anyone at LHW

There's plenty of time to bounce back. bounce back to what? being inactive, drawing no one to his fights, and ducking cloud?

Not a big one, but i was disappointed in Rigondeaux's recent fight. I really thought he would be a star but it looks like he will never shed his hyper-defensive style yah, he spent more time running around the ring
