Saddoboxing's 2010 Awards (Voting Now Open)

All right bitches, here it is. It's our annual years-end awards. So stand up and make your voice heard, and some of you (not Bilbo) might be invited to join Mick at his annual awards ceremony.

So, without further ado, here are the questions (shamelessly stolen from CMM). If you feel that other categories should be included, feel free to suggest them and I will react with appropriate levels of scorn and derision.

Fight of the Year:
Fighter of the Year:
Round of the Year:
Upset of the Year:
Worst Fight of the Year:
Knockout of the Year:
Event of the Year:
Robbery of the Year:

Here are my picks. I'll complete them as I make my decisions.

Fight of the Year: Khan - Maidana
Fighter of the Year: Fernando Montiel
Round of the Year: JMM - Katsidis round 3
Upset of the Year: Pascal - Dawson
Worst Fight of the Year: Mosley - Mora
Knockout of the Year: Martinez - Williams
Event of the Year: Cotto - Foreman
Robbery of the Year: Shumenov - Campillo (for the second time)

I'll make my picks later but I think a 'hottest weight class' of the year award could be interesting too.

I hope there was a Ring Card Girl of the Year award. :(

The pre-fight National Anthem award would by FAR go to the Dalas Cowboys' cheerleaders for their effort prior to the Margarito Pac fight..... Absolutely beautiful voices, wonderfully sung, and just gorgeous girls.... I would honestly buy an Album by them if they made one...

Fight of the Year - Khan - Maidana
Fighter of the Year - Sergio Martinez
Round of the Year - One of the earlier rounds in the Katsidis - Marquez fight, not sure which.
Upset of the Year - Ricky Burns winning a world title
Worst Fight of the Year - Haye - Harrison,
Knockout of the Year - Everyone is going to say Martinez over Williams, so i'll go with Frenkel ko'ing Enzo Mac
Event of the Year - Pacquiao - Margarito
Robbery of the Year - Pascal's draw Hopkins is the most high profile. The fact that Hopkins won 9 rounds and still didn't win annoys me a little. The knockdowns were scrappy and one of them was a borderline illegal punch. There will have been bigger robberies, but this one annoyed me more than any other.

Is there normally a 'comeback of the year' award? Not for a comeback in one particular fight but for a fighter that has comeback to have success this year after seemingly being 'washed-up'/inactive.

Much as I hate the useless Koont, I put put Fraudley's KO of Sprott forwards as KO of the year

Fight of the Year -R. Marquez/Lopez or Calderon/Segura
Fighter of the Year - Sergio Martinez
Round of the Year - Khan/Maidana rnd 10, Antillon/Soto rnd 3
Upset of the Year -Litzau/Caballero
Worst Fight of the Year - Hopkins Vs. Jones 2
Knockout of the Year - Sergio Martinez KO2 P. Williams
Event of the Year -Cotto/Foreman being at Yankee stadium
Robbery of the Year -either Hopkins/Pascal or Lebedev/Huck

I have a few thoughts on this question, and I think I'll give you all of them. The questions that are put forward in the survey are copen so if someone isn't sure, then clearly they have a choice of forfeiting their votes in each category, and rather discussing the overall topic without coming to one answer. Defining the difficulty of such a question is like defining one's sexuality, there will always be the ditherers who can't even commit to that.
So the short answer to your question is yes, no, maybe, and possibly 42.
