Really? I think it's been a great year for boxing so far. We already have a KOOTY candidate in Froch-Groves II, we've had some fun fights like Fonfara-Stevenson, Molina-Matthysse, and Mansour-Cunningham. We've had better than expected performances by Maidana, Fonfara, and Cotto.
And the summer will be packed with great fights. Just look at the schedule:
June:
Gamboa-Crawford
Provodnikov-Algeri
Lomachenko-Russell Jr
July:
Lara-Canelo
Fury-Chisora II
Golovkin-Geale
August:
Kovalev
Rios-Chaves
It doesn't end in summer, either. In September, we have a Floyd fight, and Klitschko-Pulev. We're supposed to have Wilder-Stiverne in November.
In all honesty, people do too much complaining about fights they want to see instead of just enjoying the fights in front of us.
It's definitely been a slow year, and I usually am not one for the *big* fights but they've been pretty lackluster however the smaller, breakthrough fights haven't happened this year. Boring year all around.
