Boxing 2015: whats around the corner?

[-MEGA-]

Now Im not one to count my chickens before they hatch, but things seem to be shaping up pretty nicely for 2015. After a great 2013 and a lackluster 2014 hopefully 2015 is the year of the big fights and one of the best years in recent memory. Here what is rumored or on tap already.

Mayweather vs Pacquiao
Cotto vs Canelo
Chavez vs Froch
Rios vs Alvarado III
Stiverne vs Wilder
Kovalev vs Pascal

If Wilder were to win that would set up a huge fight vs Klitschko.(one of the biggest fights weve seen at HW in a long time)

Also, I hope to see GGG and Thurman step up thier level of opposition this year as well.

126 and 130 is poppin too. Hopefully see some unification going on down there.

Is there any other fights I missed already signed?(im sure there is) or any fights that are realistic for next year you would like to see?


Speak on it...

Fight to be announced around Christmas time.

This is what I can confirm so far:

Fight will take place before June 2015, presumably on May 2nd.
Fight will take place in the MGM grand in Las Vegas.
There will be a rematch clause where if Many wins there has to be a rematch, however if Floyd wins he could choose not to have a 2nd fight.
Gloves, ring size, entrances etc are still being worked on.

Also, everything has been planned for some time including pacquiao calling Floyd out and the footlocker commercial which has also been part of the early promotion.

That's how I saw it too. We will see!

I am interesting in what Haymon has been planning as well. It seems like he's been killing time with some of his fighters, so I am hoping some good matchups will get the green light right away whenever he puts in his Haymon Banner

I really hope so too. Unfortunately his track record isn't too good on staging the biggest and toughest fights for his fighters. I'll keep my fingers crossed though.

2015 could really put boxing back on the map. Possibility of two mega fights, Haymon's deal with NBC, possible American HW champ. Hopefully get Ward and Mikey Garcia back in the ring as well.
