judsah cotto was far more exciting to think about then mayweather ODH
ODH was old and it was just a payday for mayweatrher, and i figured mayweather would easily beat hatton
cotto was unbeaten and could have easily taken an easy payday against a hispanic fighter the day before the puerto rican day parade, but he manned up and had the balls to fight judah

I would'nt say more exciting to think about, in that terms then Mayweather v Hatton was but the event has to be easily Mayweather v DLH by far, "The World Awaits" Do you remember the hype???, Will Oscar will put the first 1 on his record etc, How will Floyd cope moving up another weight, Has he pushed it to far going to light-middle??? Judah had not won for 2 years since fighting Cotto so it had Cotto written all over.

yes i remember the hype, and thats all it was, empty hype, it was a fight that people shouldnt have cared about
Re: ** Saddos 2007 Boxing Awards **
1. Fighter of the year - Kelly Pavlik
2. Fight of the year - Margarito Williams, as much as i love isreal and rafa rematch I give it up to tony and paul. It was a classic rarely seen in boxing. I'm sure i may be the only one who appreciated this but it was a true champ vs a true challenger. paul showed how to take it from a true champion and tony show how much you don't let go of your title. Paul deservingly won it. I just hope we can see more fights like this, when the challenger really brings it to the champ and takes the title from him. while the champ meets him head on and they collide.
3. Round of the year - Pacman vs Mabman round 11 or 6, I'll never forget myself going against my favorite fighter just to see mab do it one last time. "ONE MORE TIME MARCO!!!" julius rain screams.
4. Knock out of the year - Donaire vs Darchinian, best left hook that brought boxing back to notice how dangerous and useful the left hook is.
5. Upset of the year -
6. Comeback Fighter of the year - Penalosa losing on points but k.o's jhonny with a body shot to once again be world champion.
7. Event of the year - Oscar vs Floyd
8. Worst fight of the year -
9. Prospect of the year - Andy Lee
10. Robbery of the year - Eric Morales vs David Diaz: I know it was a close fight but I though EM should of won it, it could of been his 4 division title surpassing JCC.
