Who's Hot
Zab Judah - Finally he decides to step up his level of competition. The leading candidate to face Judah on September 3rd is former junior middleweight champion Sharmba Mitchell. Mitchell is trying to get his career back on track after suffering the worst loss of his career when he was virtually destroyed by Kostya Tszyu in a very anticipated 2004 rematch. Judah is at most successful point of his career as the undisputed welterweight champion. Mitchell will be a heavy underdog in this fight, but the bout has taken years to put together. These two fighters have disliked eachother for several years, constant name calling and bickering at press conferences. The bad feelings started after the first meeting between Mitchell and Tszyu. Judah ridiculed Mitchell for quitting on his stool due to an existing knee injury that was aggravated during the bout. Zab would often mimic Mitchell's facial expressions of pain in media interviews. The animosity between the two fighters will make for an interesting bout.
Mike Tyson - The man, the myth and the legend, has finally decided to hang up the gloves for good. It's about time and long overdue. Years of inactivity and improper training habits finally took their toll on the man once known as "the baddest man on the planet". There were whispers of a third meeting with Evander Holyfield, let's hope that neither fighter decides to make that fight a reality.
Bernard Hopkins - A little over a week away from meeting the middleweight heir apparent, Jermain Taylor, and Hopkins is ready to go out like a true champion. Some may say that Hopkins is taking on the kid because of Taylor's lack of experience, but this is a very dangerous fight for Bernard. Over the years, Hopkins has lost several steps and let's be honest here, he is not even the same fighter that beat Felix Trinidad in 2001. Taylor is faster, younger, possibly bigger and stronger, but Hopkins has experience and ring generalship on his side. Hopkins has been boasting to the media about taking the fight to kid, rather then waiting for the kid to the fight to him. A brawl may benefit both men, Taylor's chin is untested and Hopkins' stamina is not the same as it once was. Regardless of the fight strategy, this should be one exciting event. [details]
