Re: ** Saddos 2007 Boxing Awards **
1. Pavlik-won fights they weren't expected to and became P4P stars.
2. Vazquez-Marquez2
3. Gilber Venegas v Soto Karass round 8 I think it was.
4. DOniare over Darchinyan
5. Naito over Pongsaklek by miles.
6. Not sure?
7. The World awaits.
8. Lacy Manfredo and from a big fight perspective, MAB Manny2.
9. Linares although I'm not sure ifhe's a prospect anymore?
10. Taylor Spinks.
Greatest moment-naito and Kameda wrestling with each other!I'll probably update my list,that was off the top of my head but there were so many other great moments!

Gamo Cotto was the favorite to win both fights this year (Mosley, Judah), the majority expected him to win

I swear I am not lying to you Gamo, I live in Vegas and work at the Wynn hotel ( The newest casino on the strip), I bet on the fight and Cotto was -135 on the money line meaning that every 1.35 you put up you get 1.00 back, Mosley was +120 meaning that every 1.00 you put up you get 1.20 back, although close Cotto was the clear favorite, I bet and won money on the fight.

As evidence. The gamo never goes anywhere without evidence. ;D Oh,well betting line wise but I never go by that,because I don't know anything about betting! I merely go by what the fans and writers think.

It is true Cotto was a slight but still clear favourite to beat Mosely and a heavy favourite to beat Judah.
It is also true that I thought Mosely would knock him out but alas my views are not yet counted as the de facto opinion on the matter.
