2015 could be The Greatest Year for Boxing in more than a Decade.

[Cloud]

Better than 2013?

[Daddy T]

could be if everything goes right
with the two big possibles

froch v chavez?

there are also lots of fringe possibilities

we could also get a big GGG fight towards the end of the year(winner of cotto v canelo?)

... a big Wlad fight (wilder/stiverne/fury)

Kovalev v Stevenson?

kahn v brook v the winner of may pac later in the year

[jas]

For sure

We will see two mayweather pacquaio fights, cotto vs Canelo

Unreal

[ADP02]

Yup, hope it will be ...... the hype with those fights alone, man oh man ........

[Ringlife]

As a boxing fan I hope you are right, but it it will be hard to top 2013, but 2015 can be a great year if these fights happen.

1. Mayweather vs Paquiao
2. Cotto vs Canelo
3. Froch vs Chavez Jr
4. Kovalev vs Stevenson
5. Mares vs Gonzalez 2
6. Khan vs Bradley
7. Swift vs Crawford
8. Provodnikov vs Matthysse
9. Klitscko vs Wilder vs Stiverne winner
10. Gonzalez vs Inoue

[bojangles1987]

It's looking like a good first half of the year. Boxing fans deserve it after how horrible 2014 was.

Golovkin/Murray would have been one of the better fights made in 2014. It's an afterthought right now.

[soul_survivor]

It's a longshot, but if Ward-Golovkin gets made later this year then it would truly cement it in the top 3 best years in boxing history.

3 huge fights that are so big they transcend the sport into the public mainstream.

Ward v GGG doesn't transcend the sport, neither does Cotto/Canelo beyond the hispanic or American PPV audience.

In Europe and across the rest of the world, those fights are only big deals for the boxing public but nothing wrong with that. The best years in boxing, imo, shouldn't have to be judged by the casuals, it should be judged on the size of the fights being made.

If Pac/May, Cotto/Canelo, Ward/GGG, Stevenson/Kovalev, Wlad/WBC Champ/Fury, Gonzalez/Inoue, Bradley/Khan, Khan/May/Pac, Brook/Thurman, get made then yes, this could possibly be the best year of boxing that I can remember.

Edit: Never even managed to speak about Donaire, Walters, Crawford and so on, there is so much room to make 2015 a great year.

[I Love Jesus!]

I think you are just going to see more division and more ducking. Showcase fights for everyone while ducking the real opponents. The mayweather model.

[LouIE G]

i thought 2013 was a really good year for boxing, but 2014 not so much. Potentially 2015 might be the best one in a long time.

Potential big match ups:
Manny-Floyd
Cotto-Canelo
Khan-Brook
Ward-GGG
Adonis-Kovalev
Klitschko-Wilder
Froch-Chavez Jr

All are pretty mainstream, but i doubt most these fights get made.

Man if the best fight the best in boxing all the time like they use to, boxing would easly be one of the biggest sports again.

Dont forget Gonzalez vs Estrada 2, Mares vs Santa cruz, Loma vs Walters,walters/loma vs Gonzalez..Kovalev vs Pascal, GGG vs his toughest fight in murray..2015 could be the year in boxing!

If Mayweather-Pacquiao

two washed up, over the hill fighters wayyyyy past their prime. weeeeeee!!! what a great fight
