Mayweather vs. Mosley Preview & Prediction

Two of the Best Boxers on the Planet Meet when Shane Mosley and Floyd Mayweather Jr. Collide in May
On May 1, 2010 the highly anticipated Floyd Mayweather vs. Shane Mosley fight will be upon us. It’s the biggest fight in the first half of the boxing calendar, and it should serve to answer many questions about both man’s status in the welterweight division as well as their positioning amongst the all-timers from this generation and others previously.

Pacquiao vs. Clottey Weigh in Results

Manny Pacquiao vs. Joshua Clottey Weigh In For their Upcoming Welterweight Title Clash
The Pacquiao vs. Clottey bout is all set to go for tomorrow, Saturday, March 13. Before the fight happens though, the two fighters have to meet each other on the scales. The weigh-in results for this bout are interesting because Pacquiao is still a small man for their welterweight division, while Clottey is huge for 147 lbs. Even when he cuts down to that weight, you can be sure his fight night weight will be substantially higher, so …

End of the Line for John Ruiz?

Will the David Haye vs. John Ruiz bout be Ruiz’s last chance?
John Ruiz’s April 3rd challenge to WBA Heavyweight Champion David Haye could very well be his last fight as a professional boxer. 38 years old and having lost 3 out of 4 of his most recent fights against “name” opponents, a loss to Haye would knock Ruiz out of contention for a world title belt. At his age, he is unlikely to rebound and if he continued to campaign it would be as a gatekeeper. Indeed, Ruiz has suggested …

Bute vs. Miranda Preview & Prediction

Lucian Bute defends his title against Edison Miranda
IBF Super Middleweight Champion Lucian Bute might be the odd man out of the Super Six Boxing Tournament, but that does not mean he is not duking it out with some of the world’s top 168 lbs. contenders.

Manny Pacquiao vs. Joshua Clottey Fight Preview and Prediction

On March 13, Manny Pacquiao will defend his WBO Welterweight Title against Joshua Clottey at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
Obviously, the boxing world was hoping to see Pacquiao face Floyd Mayweather, but this is at least a reasonable replacement. Clottey is a top welterweight and a tough out for any fighter at this weight. Having the bout take place in a football stadium adds a little something extra to this fight. It will be nice to see the sport take center stage in a U.S. city other than Las Vegas, …

Dirrell, 26, is tied for last place, having lost his first-round bout to Carl Froch via very controversial decision. As is usually the case in the fight game, there is a …
