    Fights that need to happen in 2008.....

    List the fights you think need to happen in 2008.
    Forget the "He aint good enough" or "He aint on my level.."
    "it don't make $ it don't make sense..."
    This is the kind of attitude of some at the top that effectively takes away credibility in the Sport that made some fighters as wealthy as they are.
    And why potential fans turn away from Boxing and look towards UFC & MMA.
    Admittedly 2007 was a renaissance for Boxing but if that momentum doesn't carry through then what was the point?
    Ditch your allegiances to certain fighters aside and tell me!
    Who needs to fight who in 2008?
    I will start with a couple myself....(Oh yeah this doesn't mean I HATE any fighter....)

    1. Floyd Vs Williams or Cotto ..Margerito at a push..hell anyone under the age of 30 who is live..
    A re-match with De la hoya just isn't good enough.

    2.Roy Jones Jr vs ANYONE who is LIVE at 168-175.

    3.Wlad Klit vs 3 TOP HW's

    4.Clazaghe Vs Winner of Pavlik V Taylor(if he can beat Bore-hard of course)

    5.Hatton vs 2-3 Top 140lber's (Witter included if he beats D-Hop)

    Peter vs Klithcsho II
    Juan Diaz vs Micheal Kastadis (<< I **** up when trying to spell his last name)

                  Calzaghe vs Pavlik/Taylor

                  Hatton vs Paulie Malignaggi

                  Roy Jones Jr vs either Kessler/Lacy/Mundine, if he beats one of them, then he deserves to be back in the frame.

                  Mayweather vs Cotto/Paul Williams
