    2009 has been bad for boxing BECAUSE

    1) Nate campell failing to make weight
    2) Haye suffering from a back injury
    3) Margarito being exposed as a cheat
    4) Chagaev failing a medical
    5) Martin Rogan being robbed against sam sexton
    6) Trainer problems with hatton
    7) Calzaghe retireing
    8) Money rows (hatton-pac, pac-mayweather)
    9) Barerra getting cut against khan, ruining a potentially good fight
    10) ****** belt decisions (Clottey, klit mandatories)
    11) John murray failing to make weight

    And now whats this i hear? Kotelnik has a tooth ache and has to pull out? This years been a good one for showing boxing at its ugly side!

    Next you will hear that mayweather has a wedding to go to so the marquez fight will have to be delayed

    Also what fights have we had this year? Marquez-Diaz, Mosely-Margarito and Pac-Hatton are the only fights i can think of that have been well matched and competitive (well appart from Pac-hatton)

    The second half of this year better turn out better or this year will be a disapointment in comparison to 08'
