Just in case you missed them, we had in-depth previews for Juan Manuel Lopez-Rafael Marquez and Glen Johnson-Allan Green earlier this week. Also, I highly recommend The Boxing Bulletin's preview of Gavin Rees-John Watson, as Andrew Harrison has done a fine job going deeper into that fight than I...

November Schedule Power Rankings: Pacquiao-Margarito Is Not the Best Fight of the Month
Something I thought might be fun to do is look at the full month's schedule of fights, and rank them in order of awesomeness, for lack of a better word.
