2013 Promises to Be a Big Year of Boxing!

Last year had some great boxing moments but also had its sad ones. The death of the great Emanuel Steward came to shock many and the return of Ricky Hatton ended up in complete misery. However it was a great year for Carl Froch after destroying Lucian Bute and Yusaf Mack and Danny Garcia also had a great year with a career crumbling victory over Amir Khan. These were just a few moments which made 2012 but they’ve also made the foundations for what looks to be a big 2013. With the rise of Tyson Fury and David Price the heavyweight division looks to have some big and exciting fights, including a possible fight between David Haye and Vitali Klitschko. After a long spell out of the ring Floyd Mayweather is set to announce two big fight dates with a possible encounter with Saul Alvarez as one of them. Many have deemed 2013 to be the year of the cobra with Carl Froch looking better than ever with possible fights against Andre Ward and Mikkel Kessler on the cards. Under new trainer Virgil Hunter Amir Khan looks to turn his misfortune around and by the end of the year a rematch with Danny Garcia could be possible. Branded “the new mayweather” Adrien Broner looks to take the boxing world by storm with his slick and sharp boxing style. If nobody beats Andre Ward in 2013 then he will surely go down as one of the greats, the American is a truly gifted boxer and his unbeaten record shows that. There is too many top fights and fighters to mention but with all the possible matchups above 2013 looks to be a very big year for boxing.
