2011...one of the worst years for boxing?

What a dumb thread 1. December is LOADED with great fights and will easily be the best month of the year for fight fans 2. There have been a ton of classic fights from Wolak vs Rodriguez, Marquez vs Concepcion and Rios vs Acosta all 3 could be FOTY in some other years

It's pretty bad. Before this year, people wee complaining about the worst year being 2008 and look at the lineup. This is how spoiled they had us back a few years: Dawson-Johnson Marquez-Pacquiao II Campbell-Diaz Marquez-Casamayor Torres-Holt II Froch-Pascal Casamayor-Katsidis Cunningham-Adamek Cotto-Margarito Vazquez-Marquez III Lee-Vera That was the worst year for boxing before 2011. I don't know how any one can mention 2010 as a bad year: Kessler-Froch Khan-Maidana Segura-Calderon Pavlik-S. Martinez Burns-Martinez Alexander-Urango Valero-DeMarco Katsidis-Mitchell Hopkins-Pascal I Johnson-Cloud Ortiz-Peterson Soto-Antillon Mares-Darchinyan Gamboa-Salido Martinez-Williams II for as long as it lasted Berto-Quintana Just gonna stop it right there.

It's been pretty sh*t, but perhaps Cotto v Margarito, Khan v Peterson and Froch v Ward can rescue it.

Bradley-Alexander and Pac-Mosley were garbage too.

if it's any consolation, I don't think 2012 can be any worse than previous years as most of the major fights that were in demand for years either happened (Haye Klitschko) or lost its lustre (Pac Money). Maybe we'll see Bradley vs Khan :)

No... I would say 2010 was worse. Anyway, it's just the hyped up matches that are the disappointments. We've been treated to a lot of great upsets on FNF and HBO. Let's see, Rubio-Lemieux, Berto-Ortiz, and Grady-Guerrero. Great matches like Angulo-Kirkland, Maidana-Morales, Morales-Cano, Berto-Ortiz again, as well as Wolak-Rodriguez. So no, 2010 was business as usual. In fact, I can't recall seeing matches as dramatic as this year.
