    2005 one of the best year in boxing.. will 2006 be better?

    I have to say that this year is one hell of a year for boxing. A lot of exciting fights and many tough and skilled prospects and contenders just came out of nowhere. The fight of the year will definitely be Castillo-Corrales 1. Honorable mentions are Morales-Pacquiao, Arce-Hussein and many more. Is 2006 going to beat 2005 or will it be worst?

      its hard to follow up on ayear like 2k5... its not over yet.. we still have hop and taylor... but starting the year with a rematch of pacman and morales will be a good sign and if the mayweather-judah push through i think that would be another good one.. a lot is in store for 2005... im hoping for a pacman win so pacman will face barera again!

        i just dont see how you could have a year with better fights than
        corrales & castillo 1
        morales & pac
        arce & hussein
        these fights were brutal wars & they dont come around every year!

          Well in 06' you got Lacy vs. Calzaghe. You got Brewster and Vlad part 2. maybe by the end of the year we may see Hatton and Mayweather or Hatton and Judah. Winky Wright will be fighting. There might be a heavyweight unification. I think '06 is going to be exciting.

              i agree on this.. but some fights were overhyped too. alot of disappointments, alot of fights ended up from the quitting of one of the fighters.

                  2006 could have a very good line-up of fights if all goes well 2006 could rival or even surpass 2005 with a sharp line-up of fights.A few on my wishlist
                  1.Zab vs Floyd
                  2.Calzaghe vs Lacy
                  3.Winky vs (Taylor/Hopkins)
                  4.Pac vs Morales
                  5.Corrales vs Castillo
                  6.Margarito vs Cotto (toss-up)
                  7.My greatest wish some actual heaveyweight contender and some good fights in the heaveyweight division hopefully "Lights out" can provide
