List your top 10 most exciting heavyweight fights of the year and I'll list my top 10 flyweight fights of the year. Remember this is all about excitment and drama!

I'll go first, here's mine.

1.) Nonito Donaire vs Vic Darchinyan One of the greatest upsets of the year Donaire exposed Darchinyan big time catching him cold with a stunning one punch knockout, one of the best of the year. The fight completely overshadowed the supposed 'main event' of Travis Simms vs Joachim Alcine I'll tell you a real david versus goliet upset of the year. pay attention cause this was no upset vic just got expose by a unknown talented boxer nonito.
2.)Hugo Cazares vs Ivan Calderon A fight that generated world wide(B.S) interest amongst boxing fans the tiny 5ft Calderon stepped up a division to face the big punching and 7 inches taller Ring champion Hugo Cazares. In a fascinating fight Calderon befuddled and outsmarted the much bigger man and overcame the drama of being caught in the middle of the fight. Cazares was stalking him at the end, but Calderon held firm for a fantastic victory

3.) Ulises Solis vs Rodel Mayo In an action packed fight Solis recovered from a knockdown and almost being out on his feet to come back and knockout the brave challenger Mayo.

4.) Fernando Montiel vs Luis Melendez One of the best fights of the year WBO Super flyweight champ Montiel picked himself up off the floor to finish Melendez in the final minute of a 12 round war

5.) Jorge Arce vs Tomas Rojas Although the fight took place at bantamweight Arce make no mistake is a flyweight star. After taking a beating for 5 savage rounds he stunned Rojas with a devasting body shot that spectacularly ended the fight

6.)Dimitri Kirilov vs Jose Navarro, The chief support for the Holyfield Ibragimov world title fight this flyweight bout was by far the more entertaining of the two. Kirilov overcame a knockdown in the 3rd round to fight back and win a close and extremely hard fought 12 round win.

7.) Christian Mijares vs Jorge Arce In a suprising upset the little known Mijares revealed himself to be a super slick southpaw who laid a smackdown on the popular Mexican ending his 8 year unbeaten run in spectacular fashion.

8.) Daisuke Naito vs Daiki Kameda. A savage ugly brawl that erupted into one of the dirties fights in recent memory. Naito put a beatdown on Daiki Kameda, leading him to spectacularly implode in the fight and earn himself a year's ban from the sport. But don't let the fouls fool you, unlike Mayweather Judah this was a savage powerpunching fightfest and my favourite fight this week.A dissapointment

9.) Edgar Sosa vs Brian Viloria. An undercard fight on the Blaze of Glory HBO PPV featuring Manny Pacquiao vs Jorge Solis, this fight was clearly the best bout of the night. A toe to toe brawl Sosa managed to find something in the last rounds to pull off a huge upset win. Boxing writers praised the fight as being one of the finest of the year. (Brian Viloria is also dissapointing

10) Daisuke Naito vs Pongsaklek WonjongkamAnother great showing from Naito he caused a huge upset by beating the Ring champ Wonjingkam and ending his 6 year and 16 title defenses reign. Wonjingkam had previously been rated at number 10 in the Ring magazines p4p list. Pongsaklek has always been overrated and protected


Ok that's my top 10 most exciting flyweight fights of the year.

post you top 10 most exciting heavyweight fights of the year and why you feel they were exciting.

Round: 6

this is suppose to be impressive? you prolly didn't even anticipate any of these fights. if it weren't for our other buddies on saddo you would of never heard about these fights. You damn well exagerrated on your top then flyweights, i don't blame you though you prolly name all the ones you heard about but I'll do you one better since you ask so nicely. OOH v.d pay attention son you gonna learn something.


Wlady-Brewster: you damn right the rematch, you know you anticipated this fight.

Toney-Peter: toney getting drop and getting beat but still running his mouth, gotta love toney.

Ruslan-Valuev: The real david and goliat upset of the year.

Mccline-Peter: dropping peter three times but peter comes back to win the decision.

Valuev-Mccline: gotta love giants knocking out another big men.

Golota-Mcbribe: more heavyweight knock outs

Moore-Boruff: Michael Moore knocking out undefeated boruff in one round.

Sultan-Briggs: gave a good scrap for 12 rounds, robotic briggs got his ass handed to him which I love.

Mesi-Miller: Perfect record Joe mesi is back, knocking out both of his past two openents in the first round, shannon miller isn't exactly up there but you gotta love heavyweight knock outs and tko more then flyweight tko and k.o's :P

Juan Carlos Gomez-Oliver Mccall: Pantera Negra dominated, gotta watch out for this guy coming up the ranks.

Come on bilbo, even though you got v.d as your cheerleader, your not impressing nobody. We all know your not even a flyweight fan so, how in the world can you fool the judges or any othe people that the flyweight is a lot more exciting? Besides v.D theres nobody fooling for your little tricks. And your trying to make it seem your really winning with the help of v.d a guy that would do anything to see me lose.

The heavyweights are far more marketable then any flyweight, and thats the bottom line cause they are more exciting to watch. Nothing beats a good ol heavyweight knock out. Em I right judges? would we pay and take a trip to vegas for a flyweight fight? better yet anywhere in the world? Majority of boxing fans will not spend on flyweight events, the money is just not there, the interest the fans the general public do not talk about flyweights. They are just the undercard of bigger fights. Like I said earlier, most of us don't even come to a live fight early enough to see flyweight fights.

Your in check bilbo, what you gonna do now? hehe
