    Good month for heavyweight fights: June 20 - July 19

    In the past, I've been disappointed at the inactivity of most of the top heavyweights. Entire months have gone with hardly any contenders or fringe contenders being in action.

    But now, amazingly, about half of the top 50 or so will be fighting within a single month: June 20 to July 19, inclusive.

    Eddie Chambers 06/20
    Rafael Butler 06/20
    Friday Ahunyana 06/20
    Alonzo Butler 06/20
    Chazz Witherspoon 06/21
    Chris Arreola 06/21
    Tye Fields 06/28
    Monte Barrett 06/28
    Brian Minto 07/02
    Matt Skelton 07/04
    Odlanier Solis 07/04
    Samil Sam 07/04
    Ruslan Chagaev 07/05
    Nicolay Valuev 07/05
    Wlad Klitschko 07/12
    Tony Thompson 07/12
    Sam Peter 07/12
    David Tua 07/12
    Roman Greenberg 07/12
    James Toney 07/16
    Hasim Rahman 07/16
    John McDermott 07/18
    Danny Williams 07/18
    Alexander Povetkin 07/19
    Francesco Pianeta 07/19
    Scott Gammer 07/19

    and several others will see action during this month!

    This is what the division needs: more activity, and contenders/fringe contenders/potential contenders fighting other contenders.

      There aren't a ton of competitive fights in that group though, and the most competitive is a rematch of a fairly uneventful fight.

      It's an improvement but not by leaps and bounds

                    LOL that's exactly how I see him.

                    Joe, I love how you're trying to turn it around and accuse the whole world of having alts. I'm pretty sure you've got everybody beat. What is it, 5 for you now?
