A huge letdown.
-Chad Dawson has been inactive.
-Eddie Chambers lost.
-Even though Andre Dirrell and Arthur Abraham fought the fight was delayed.
-Andre Ward's fight was delayed thus delaying the eventual showdown between Dirrell and Ward.
Too much inactivity in boxing, that's what's killing the sport.Comment

Definatley been a massive letdown the first half of 2010. Floyd v Mosley has been the best fight of the year in terms of an EVENT and in that fight Floyd was just too good. I loved it been a Floyd fan, but as a spectacle it killed the fight because it was massively one-sided.
Anyway, at the beginning of 2010 we had the possibility of Floyd v Pacquiao, Cotto v Margarito 2, Klits v Haye, Bradley, Alexander, Khan, Maidana- and of those four squaring off. None of these fights have happened or have even come close to been made. The problem is the size of peoples egos, people are too interested in the big payday rather than enhancing their reputation. Doesn't help when you have promoters like Bob Arum interested in nothing but taking 25% of his fighters money.Comment

Very much a let down. The biggest stories of the year have occured outside the ring not in them. The 3 big ppv fights have all ******. The 2 best heavyweight champs were basically told to go fly a kite by HBO. But that isn't the worst thing about it. The best matches at each weight that could be made didn't happen or likely will not happen.Comment
