    2005 will be the best year for boxing

    Look at all the fights that the fans will get. With the weak heavyweight division lots of big lighter weights money fights are happening. This is just great for us fans because we can see some of our favorite boxing in action.

    Some awesome fights that are still coming up this year:

    Spinks vs Judah II
    Hopkins vs Eastman
    Morales vs Pacquiano (Hopefully winner will fight Barrera)
    Klichko vs Rahman
    Gatti vs Mayweather
    Tszyu vs Hatton (Hopefully winner will fight winner of Gatti vs Mayweather)
    Byrd vs W. Klichko
    Golota vs Brewster
    Toney vs Ruiz

    I'm sure there will be more and more great fights scheduled for this year.

    I wish Castillo/Corrales would still be on the list, but still there are plenty of good fights on the way.

        Looks good on paper, but I predict duds of over 75% of those fights and I think 2005 will be the year of upsets.

          Yeah I think Klitchko will go down this year. Also if Mayweather wants to move up to 147 he could easily lose to the likes of Mosley/Judah/Spinks. Also who knows who Hopkins will take after Eastman. '05 could be a lot like '04.

                I think he was talking about Vitali, Wlad cant be in an upset anymore. It is hit or miss with that guy.
