Cotto-Castillo with the winner getting Hatton for the 140 lb title.
Pacquiao-Morales winner vs Barrera for the 130 lb title
Corrales-Castillo 3 for the lightweight title

Great thread!

I think if Pacquiao wins his fight then fights Barrera that can be big too./

Barrera is a warrior.

I would like to see him fight Manny once more, just for the fans although I don't fancy his chances. I'm suprised he's even allowed to fight in the US because of that metal plate in his head.

So did I, I said 2006 is the "golden year."

I want to see Toney vs Valuev and Judah vs Mayweather. Anything else would be icing on the cake.

I too think it will be a great year. If Rock-Toney is on free tv, it will be one of the most eagerly viewed fights of the year because we want the HW division to get credibility so badly. We thought we had that when Vitali beat Corrie Sanders. Judah-Mayweather could be like the Toney-Jones fight where ten years from now we'll look back at the roads travelled since

I think the three most important fights that could happen are:

1 - Mayweather-Judah
2 - Winky-Taylor
3 - Mayweather-Hatton

*Note - There is no single fight in the heavyweight division that can be labled as the most important in boxing. It will take a series of fights in order to get there.

Lacy-Calzaghe is probably #4, a possible Pacquiao-Barrera 2 would probably be #5 with Corrales-Castillo 3 being #6.

What is amazing to me is that it looks like most of these fights will happen next year. That is great news for boxing fans.

Judah vs Mayweather is the biggest fight in my opinion of 2006.

Haton vs Cotto should happen too.
