How can say Coralles Clottey was too one sided and then say Pavlik Miranda was your joint favourite? Miranda got KTFO! ???Quote:

I never said Jones Hanshaw was foty it's just one of my own faves being a big Roy Jones fan.
By the way, when a man weighs as much as Ford and Angulo do (just a guess here but I presume they are S.American or Philippino wheat farmers who weigh less than the straw they collect) is it possible for them to really throw bombs? I mean a heavyweight throws bombs, a straweight would throw at best those little fire snappers that kids buy in jokeshops.
If that's your thing though who I am I to stop you from enjoying your passion.
Cotto-Judah
Pavlik-Miranda
Williams-Margarito
Terry Smith-Kelvin Davis for me.
What about De La Hoya v Mayweather?
:lol:
Katsidis/ Earl for me
KO of the year would be Wilson's followed by Andy Lee destroying Daniels!
Yeah that was amazing..even for the sheer drama. Earls corner throwing in the towel and the ref ignoring it only for Earl to put Katsidis a*** on the canvas 10 seconds later! Amazing drama.Quote:

Even if we havn't had many big name fights of the year candidates, it's been a great year for the big names at least going head to head! I love the suspense and build up that goes into those matches, its sometimes more fun than the match! DLH vs PBF is a classic example, i found the matchup really exciting (yes i'm looking to get crucified for saying that lol) purely because a small thought in the back of my head thought DLH could do it and I was convinced he was gonna upset mayweather about 5 rounds in. Naturally i was the only Mayweather fan in the room so i was catching tons of heat haha. It's all good fun..roll on the other big fights.hatton/mayweather, Cotto/mosely, Taylor/Pavlik etc
We still got shitloads to look forward to!  ;D
In no particular order:
Diaz vs Freitas
Pavlik vs Miranda
Wison vs Nwodo
Williams vs Margarito
Darchinyan vs Donaire
Cotto vs Judah
Had Freitas not quit I think that fight would have given us a great finish and would be the front runner and clear cut FOTY but it is what it is.
Earl v Katsidis was it for me, it had shades of Hamed v Kelley. Katsidis is just one of those guys that can't help but be in a good fight.
Yeah cc bro, a lot like Gatti.Quote:

MAB-Morales I & III
Zale-Graziano I & II
Walcto-Ezzard II
Marciano-LaStarza
JLC-Chico I
Basilio 3 Times 8) DeMarco, Saxton & SRR
Foster-Finnegan
Lopez-Ayala
Gatti-Ward I & II
Saad-Yaqui
Castro-Jackson I
In all honesty I think at this moment it's Katsidis vs. Earl.
Miranda had more moments in the fight than Corrales ever did,the one which stands out the most when he landed like 4 straight right hands and Pavlik took like an inch back..ir when Kelly had him on the ropes,the camera was real close and Miranda landed 2-3 bombs,snapping Kelly's neck. Corrales never had such moments v Clottey and you're the only one to list that fight so.....Quote:
