I know this is an MMA website but I bet that there are some Boxing Fans out there.
I just love the sport of fighting in general and I have been raised by boxing.
So in this Thread we can discuss the "Sweet Science"
such as
Past Fights
Upcoming Events
Favorite Fighters
and Historical Figures in the Sport
Because like MMA in the US, Boxing started out illegal. But where it took MMA less than 25 years to gain the General populations approval, It took boxing over 100 years.
Discuss and have fun.

It is now in Mayweather's move now.
Do you think this will happen?
on a scale of one to ten, ten being a definite yes to a fight and explain.
2, this fight has been talked about for the past 4 years. and if it was a no then, it is a no now.

this would be an interesting fight.
I don't think that Saul will be ready for a Floyd, but he will bring what he can.
He just better train and train hard, cause Cotto exposed some things in Floyd's style and he is a good example to follow off of.

RICKY HATTON HAS RETURNED!!!
Ricky Hatton will face Vyacheslav Senchenko of Ukraine in his comeback fight on November 24
“Senchenko lost the last time he fought but he has a good pedigree” said Ricky at yesterday’s presser.
“I can’t wait to get in the ring now.I’m sure that Vyacheslav will give me a good fight but it’s one I am confident I can win. I believe this was as good an opponent as I could have had.
“I’m in great shape. I’m feeling good and I know I can put on a performance for those watching.”

As for Ricky Hatton, why exactly is he coming out retirement? He must need the money. Frankly, the drugs and everything that happened after he retired were probably too much for him to make a truly successful come back. I believe he should beat Senchenko, but if he tries to get fights with the likes of Ortiz, Bradley, Berto, or Alexander afterwards, he's screwed.
Today Alexander Povetkin TKO'd Hasim Rahman in the 2nd round. Now everybody wonders when Povetkin is finally going to fight good fighters to go along with his 25-0 (17 KO) record. It would be nice if he would fight Arreola, Helenius, or somebody in that area, because I honestly have no idea if Povetkin's actually good or if his record is just 100% padded.
