If I HAD TO right now
FOTY: Vasquez-Gonzalez cause of the caliber of fighters & the meaning of the fight.
Upset OTY: Baldomir-Zab
P4P FOTY: PAC
FOTY: Arthur Abraham
Come Back FOTY: Kassim Ouma
FOTY- Aurthur Abraham He survived a beat down, but fighter of the year? Intresting choice Mick . I am usually on par with you, but i don't get this one.. That Miranda fight was a horrible watch. both fighters fighting like assholes. and neither fighter looked sharp. Abraham was lunging wild from the start and mostly running for most of the fight.
IMO fighter of the year is not entirely based on the style in which you won a fight but more on what you did for the particular year. In this case Abraham defended his newly owned IBF belt 3 times against very good opponents.
He first beat S. Taylor not world class but a decent fighter, he then beat Jantuah and finished off the year defending his belt against Miranda a highly regarded fighter.

Also keep in mind that this is up until today I have Baldomir in that spot too, if he can finish off the year wining it's his spot no questions asked. I also have the winner of Wladdy & Brock for the spot of FOTY but that can't be determined till after they fight. Thats why this is up and till today. I don't see any other fighter out there that doesn't have a *pending fight that can be put in place for Abraham who wont be fighting this year anymore.

Thats how I came up with Abraham.
Fair enough ! Thanks for taking the time to explain it to me ! #644
Back at 'ya LG. # 324
It was hard to try and norrow it down thats why when I replied I put 'If I HAD TO right now' I'm sure come then end of the year one or two of those will change.
