    Dec. 13th Best Night of Boxing in 08?

    Well I believe this is the first time that Versus has had a good main event on the same night both showtime and hbo have. showtime has good undercard. so quantity-wise this may best night of the year. if not can anyone think of a better night line-up?

    December 13
    At Manheim, Germany (HBO): Wladimir Klitschko vs. Hasim Rahman, 12 rounds, for Klitschko's IBF/WBO heavyweight title

    At Atlantic City, N.J. (Showtime): Kendall Holt vs. Ricardo Torres, rubber match, 12 rounds, for Holt's WBO junior welterweight title; Yuri Foreman vs. James Moore, 10 rounds, junior middleweights; Demetrius Hopkins vs. Germaine Sanders, 10 rounds, welterweights

    At Cabazon, Calif. (Versus): James Toney vs. Tony Thompson, 12 rounds, heavyweights; Andre Ward vs. TBA, 10 or 12 rounds, super middleweights

    In a tie with two other dates for best of the year, so yes.

    Toney vs. Thompson is an intriguing matchup, and of course Holt vs. Torres III will be great. And my favorite Wlad fights again on that date.

          why because 2 of the bouts are heavyweight? toney/thompson should be best heavyweight fight of the year or in a long time
