By Scott Bells: It says a lot when promoters have to pad out fighters records to ensure they remain unbeaten simply due to the fact that the two who sit at the top of the tree (The Klitschkos) are so much better than the rest.
This is what, in my opinion, many promoters are doing as there is clearly a number of grades of fighters in the heavyweight division; some can make it to the top and others will not recover from the inevitable first career loss that most, if not all, will suffer to a Klitschko or a Haye type on the way through.
Let’s break them down…..
By Scott Gilfoid: WBA super middleweight champion Mikkel Kessler (46-2, 35 KO’s) isn’t worried about IBF super middleweight champion Carl Froch’s long reach or big power in their fight on May 25th. 
By Chris Williams: Top Rank plans on having a 5-city promotional tour to hype Manny Pacquiao’s November 23rd fight against Brandon Rios in Macau, China. According to Steve Kim, the 5-city tour will include cities in China as well New York City and Los Angeles.
By Dallas Orysiuk: Floyd “Money” Mayweather is arguably one of the greatest boxers of all time, and undoubtedly the current number one pound for pound fighter in the world. Being the highest paid athlete, thanks to his 6 fight deal with ShowTime, he has 5 fights left to go. The question looms whether Floyd will fulfill the contract and fight the total of 6 fights. “Money” definitely will fight a few more times, and the way he looked against Guerrero there is no doubt that Floyd still has plenty left in the tank.
By Gerardo Granados: Former WBC middleweight champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. has struggled to make 160 pounds limit in the past and after his long suspension it has been reported that he would face either Martin Murray at 160 or Brian Vera at 165 pounds depending on the weight he is able to shred off. 
By Dan Ambrose: WBC lightweight champion Adrien Broner (26-0, 22 KO’s) sees himself becoming the first boxer to ever make one billion dollars in the sport. However, at this point it’s questionable whether he’ll ever be a pay per view attraction, period. 
By Dan Ambrose: Junior middleweight contender Alfredo Angulo (22-2, 18 KO’s) might have made a big, big mistake in choosing to face boxer/puncher Erislandy Lara (17-1-2, 11 KO’s) on June 8th because he does not have the style that will give the 30-year-old Lara any problems. 
By Scott Gilfoid: Super middleweight contender James DeGale (14-1, 9 KO’s) will continue his slow, slow trot to a title shot this Saturday night against journeyman Sebastien Demers (31-5, 11 KO’s) in a scheduled 8 round bout at the Hilton Lac Leamy, Gatineau, Quebec, Canada.
