    Most anticipated fight of the rest of 2011?

    Which fight are you most looking forward in the rest of this year? I'm personally psyched for Mayweather-Ortiz. Something about that fight captures my imagination. I really think Ortiz might pull it off. But the closer we get to December, I'll get more into Cotto-Margarito 2. It just seems too far away. Vote!

    Pac and May should win their fights without problems in my opinion. Pacquiao won't be the same fighter as he was back in 2008 as he's improved. May and Ortiz should be a competitive fight but with May winning 8 rounds to 4. Cotto and Margarito i have no idea who'll win that fight, eventho logic says Cotto should win.

        There are some great fights to look forward to. Besides the huge Pac and Floyd fights there's still Maidana-Ghost, Zab-Khan, and Margarito-Cotto.

        I'm really looking forward to the Maidana and Margarito fights because those will probably have the most fireworks.

          May/PAC are both big time favorites and expected to win their respective fights. With Cotto/Margarito II, you have two guys nearing the end of their careers & really not knowing what to expect from either fighter. Add that, along w/ the revenge factor for Cotto & Tony wanting to prove all the naysayers wrong that said he cheated in the 1st fight, Cotto/Margarito II is an easy pick for me.

              To me it's a toss up between Mayweather vs Ortiz and Pac vs Marquez and here is my reasoning behind that..

              There are a lot of people (more than there should be) that think Marquez beat Pac and has a great chance to beat him in this fight. The casual Mexican boxing fan (not the die hard boxing fans) thinks that Marquez has the tools to give Manny P a close fight and possible upset. These people will be in shock on how much Pacquiao has improved since their last fight and how much Juan Manuel has declined. I love being in a room full of shocked pissed off drunk people..lol.

              Then there is the Floyd and Victor fight which will tell us how far Ortiz has gone and how far Floyd may have slipped. It's intriguing on that alone. Should Mayweather win? Yes, he should but Victor is a "loose cannon" that can jump up and snatch greatness.

                I dont see Mayweather vs Ortiz or Pac vs Marquez as fights whose outcomes are at all in question plus im a Cotto fan so for me personally its Cotto Margarito.
