Keep in mind, this is still early in the year. So, the question is raised. Is 2008 shaping up to be a better year of boxing than the AMAZING 2007 was? I'm not necessarily talking about financially, considering the fact that certain events broke records last year. However, I think this year will do just fine for itself, fiscally. But, in terms of competitive boxing, exciting match-ups and the overall sport, will this year be better? In your opinion.

Vote. Discuss.

I'd say 2008 has been better than 2007 so far! comparing Jan 2007-May 2007 to Jan 2008-May 2008!

[Pugilistic™]

2008 has been better than 2007 in my opinion.

[THe TRiNiTY]

Yeah, at this pace, it's hard to argue against 2008. However, the only worry could be that 2008, shot it's load, for lack of a funnier term.

[joshyp18]

i think 2008 so far! has being better than last year

[THe TRiNiTY]

Bump.......

[Shalafi]

You forgot the Andy Lee/Brian Vera fight, that was an entertaining fight and a big upset. 2007 was awesome but if the fights projected for 2008 do pan out, I think 2008 would be a much better year IMO, so far I'm liking it better but not by much than 2007.

[niceguy45]

2008 is x-plosive, not to mention the chazvez jr fights,
and the berto fights and new bees which has been good as well

[Naps]

I'll tell you in December.

[frankpaganini]

if the pace that has been set so far here in 08 continues then it should be better than 07...

I dont know what it is but im not going to question it but the right fights are being made and the match making (overall) has been excellent as of late.
