I went back about ten pages and couldn't find a thread dedicated to boxing.

Just watched the Anthony Joshua vs Dillian Whyte fight and it was a hell of a lot more entertaining than Fury vs Klitschko.

Future of the heavyweight division has got to be Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder.

also Amir Khan vs Kell Brook looks likely for middle of 2016.

Not really seen much of Joshua but he looks official and seems willing to bide his time...he'll be a problem for Fury (if he retains the titles in the rematch). Apparently they're thinking about a Haye fight next year, that would be interesting...although they are talking about Chisora who's a bit of a clown.

Joshua has just been straight powering through people. Dillian Whyte was a big test, it was a great entertaining fight with two fighters that wanted the knockout and Joshua came up trumps.

nobody wants to fight Gennady Golovkin.

i always fantasy book in my head.

Thurman has got a tough task ahead of him in Shawn Porter, that should be a good fight.

The public want Canelo vs Triple G, but the general consensus amongst boxing experts is that it's bad move for Canelo as he will be taken it within the time.

David Haye is making his return in January or February, cant remember which, not fighting anybody exciting, just a fight to see if his desire is still there i think.

Saunders beat Lee tonight the for WBO title.

Seems like Haye has only come back for one last pay off...he was forced to retire due to shoulder injury wasn't he. He'll not be the fighter he was at his peak.

ha it seems Freddy Roach is against a Canelo/Gennady fight until his man Cotto gets a rematch lol. I think Canelo will still give him the L. I feel cotto has already seen his best days sadly, cause he's one of my fav.

Ahh I already made one.

So Kell Brook has stated he wants to fight Gennady Golovkin.

That's fucking bold and brave, GGG is the fighter everyone avoids, so I respect Kell Brook.

Enzo Macarinelli, was an up and coming cruiserweight, until David Haye took his fucking head off about 8 years ago. aince then he hasn't done much.

In his prime he was something else. I think the last fight I watched of his was against calzage.

I can't believe he's still fighting.

truth, bro. i actually felt sad watching it lol. 

@rutter yeah his reflex was on some other level. its not until he was beaten by Tarver and started the downward spiral that u realize his real boxing skills were lacking and it was his talent that really brought him to the top. still love watching his old fights tho.

Kell Brook fighting tonight. He'll probably take the fight via TKO in the middle rounds somewhere.
