            Bradley - Alexander - Which is happening in 2 months.

            Williams - Martinez II - Which is happening in 2 weeks.

            Juanma - Gamboa - Which will happen next summer.

            Haye vs Wlad/Vitali - Which... uh... who knows.

              How about the fights we're getting?

              Khan vs Maidana. Two top prime JWW's going at it.

              Froch vs Abraham Super 6 fight this month.

              Ortiz vs Peterson, very good match up on paper and I think it will be a good fight.

              Alexander-Bradley next year. Somebodies 0 gotta go.

              The #1 and #2 LHW's Pascal vs Hopkins in December.

              A sure war Marquez vs Katsidis later this month.

              Williams vs Martinez II in a couple of weeks.


              And of course we have the two fights that were shoved down our throats by the media/Arum, Margarito-Pacquiao[which i'm actually buying], and Haye vs Harrison[not watching it unless some one sends me a stream].


              Honestly, I don't wish to see any other fights right now. Maybe more Featherweights fighting other top 3 FW's[Lopez/John/Gamboa/Caballero/Rojas] instead of fighting other lesser/older fighters. But all in all, after a very boring 2010 in boxing, I like the lineup I see for these coming weeks and months. I have no complaint.

                Like the guy said above, we are getting a lot of good fights that should be happening right now.

                  I'm also glad Berto is fighting but i'm not excited about his opponent. I wish to see Berto against tougher opponents in 2011. I liked that he fought Collazo and Quintana, and Forbes was also not a bad opponent for a 24/25 year old. I expect 2011 to be a big year for Berto, hopefully he doesn't let me down.


                  I hope Judah has a good 2011 too. And Mayweather stays out of trouble. Who else? Angulo, Kirkland, Mosley...hopefully they have good 2011 too against good opposition.

                    Wlad-Haye. It'd be a big fight in a division that desperately needs a marquee match up.
