Anyone feel that 2014 have been a slow year so far? The only fight comes to mind that I've enjoyed is Matthysse-Molina and Andy Lee KO.
It's like moving through a sludge of mud and nothing's happening. Or I'm getting bored too quickly and need a compelling fight every other night.
It's definitely been a slow year, and I usually am not one for the *big* fights but they've been pretty lackluster however the smaller, breakthrough fights haven't happened this year. Boring year all around.
Really? I think it's been a great year for boxing so far. We already have a KOOTY candidate in Froch-Groves II, we've had some fun fights like Fonfara-Stevenson, Molina-Matthysse, and Mansour-Cunningham. We've had better than expected performances by Maidana, Fonfara, and Cotto.
And the summer will be packed with great fights. Just look at the schedule:
June:
Gamboa-Crawford
Provodnikov-Algeri
Lomachenko-Russell Jr
July:
Lara-Canelo
Fury-Chisora II
Golovkin-Geale
August:
Kovalev
Rios-Chaves
It doesn't end in summer, either. In September, we have a Floyd fight, and Klitschko-Pulev. We're supposed to have Wilder-Stiverne in November.
In all honesty, people do too much complaining about fights they want to see instead of just enjoying the fights in front of us.
exactly .. idk what this guy is talking about .... probably not as classic as last year but last 2 months been entertaining ... top of my head amir monsour vs cunnigham war .. same night curtis stevens-tureano great fight .. marquez-alvarado .. molina-matthysse .. porter over malignaggi .. adonis stevenson-fonfara was one hell of fight .. lemiux destruction over guerreo .. madiana-mayweather was entertaining .. froch ko groves was memorable .. salido-loma was fun .. pac-bradley was good solid fight ..cotto-martinez was memorable performance .. i know i missing a few more
Hell, you can throw Arreola/Stiverne II in there as well.

I don't know, it started off bad but got better. Pac/Bradley, Mayweather/Maidana, Froch/Groves, Cotto/Martinez...
We have Crawford/Gamboa, Lomachenko/Russell, Alvarez/Lara, and Golovkin/Geale soon. There's other fights I know I'm forgetting.
I think it's been a great year the last two months were great.
