    Can't believe this is so close to be honest, I think it's far and away Vazquez and I think that Pac - JMM, while it was a big fight and not a disappointment, was a fairly average fight. I was never once wowed by the action, there were only a few notable back and forth exchanges throughout the entire fight and there wasn't 1 round that sticks out in the memory. It was an average fight with major implications. I don't think it's FOTY by any means. Especially when you have a fight of the decade canidate in Vazquez - Marquez III.

    Vasquez vs Marquez 3 told a great story in boxing and was a fight of the year in its own right because of it.

    And Casamayor vs Katsidis also told a great story in boxing and is a fight of the year in its own right.

    It depends on what story you want, the back and forth warrior slugfest or the old lion young lion one

    I thought the Pacquaio fight excellent both fighters looked like they were going to go at times.

    I voted for Katsidis Casamayor.

    Honestly I think if the same Kats Casa fight had involved Vazquez and Marquez people would have thought it was insane!

    If for example Marquez had put Vazquez down twice in the first, got punched clean out of the ring in the 6th and was looking to be on his way to losing the fight before pulling out a an awesome left hook to floor Vazquez in the 10th people would have been all over it.

    It was the better fight imo but Vazquez Marquez had a better heritage and tradition being the legacy defining fight.

    But honestly we are being spoiled I'd say this March has been the best month I can ever recall for great boxing fights, simply superb!
