      As for the bold he got tired in the Margarito fight. I want to see the P. Williams fight PBF because I think it can turn out to be like the first Leonard vs. Hearns fight. Where because Williams' height and reach PBF will have to turn into the stalker and press the issue.

      I want to see the champions give the Peterson brothers shots at the titles. I also want to see Andre Berto in against some real top flight people. I think they all will have great years.

          you want to see a replay of hearns leonard, then let's hope cintron gets to fight PBF. hearns, in addition to being big, had massive punching power. the only similarity between pwil and hearns is their height, totally different styles. I think pbf has a tough time with either pwil or cintron, but goes into both fights as the obvious favorite.

            I get what you saying about the power Williams is lacking but I think Williams comes closer to having some of the other skills Hearns had more so than Cintron. Even though we know both is no Tommy Hearns.

                08 may be a big year for a lot of boxers, I'd like to see Andre Berto, Peterson brothers and Mora fight some serious fighters. I think it's also going to be a big year for Cotto after he defeats Mosley, he'll look in the way of Mayweather. Paul Williams is another one that will blow fans away. For Heavyweights, I'd like to Chris Arreolla fight some a big name.

                  Not yet, anyway. I'm hoping manny is able to turn cintron into the boxer puncher that hearns was, though. So far, so good.

                  I think both these guys will be stars for years to come, though. lets hope the boxing public doesnt get down on either guy for losing their upcoming bout. it's ashame that the two best upcoming fighters in the hottest division have to fight each other this early...

                    It would be ****** to down a fighter for losing. Its the way fighters lose that should get people down about them. I don't think Cintron could ever be as fluid with his punches and put combos together the way Hearns could. I also don't see Williams getting the punching power that Hearns had. All that said they can still be very good fighters though. Definitely want to see them in all the match ups at welter weight.
