What do you not wanna see?
Was 2015 boxing better than 2013?
2013 was a helluva year in boxing, 2015 was better IMO. 2014 was sh*t. I think 2016 will be just as good or better.

Answer 1

The best fights I saw this year was Fonfara vs Cleverly, Cardle vs Dodd and DeGale vs Dirrell.



Quillin was robbed of regaining the world title when one of the judges failed to score a knockdown he got against Andy Lee earlier this year. Had the judge scored it as per the ref's instruction he would have won the fight. But the BIGGEST robbery I witnessed this year was a disgraceful unanimous decision win for Jean Pascal over Yunieski Gonzalez after 10 rounds in which he clearly lost, I almost threw up.



In 2016 the fights I'd like to see that didn't happen this year is Wilder vs Povetkin, Saunders vs Eubank Jr II and Brook vs Khan.



The McDonnell vs Kameda rematch didn't really catch fire, after their first fight I was expecting a better rematch but Kameda didn't turn up. Probably not the worst of the year but worst I can think of at the moment.



Mismatches of the year, Jo Jo Dan in there with Kell Brook, Roy Jones Jr getting in with Enzo Mac and Berto taking on Floyd Mayweather Jr.



I don't want to see Klitschko rematch Fury, I fear he'll be knocked out next time. I also don't want to see Roy Jones Jr fight ANYONE else ever nor do I want to see Haye vs Joshua, I'm a fan of both and I'd hate to see Haye derail Joshua's career.



I don't remember 2013 but 2015 has been a great year for boxing.
