Re: *** Saddos 2008 Boxing Awards ***
1. Fighter of the year: Pacquiao
Hands down this guy probably has figter in the year in his cards for the next 2 years with all the potential fights in front of him
2. Fight of the year: Cotto V Margarito
I think my own excitement over this fight made more exciting than it may have been.
3. Round of the year: Torres V Holt
I hate how Holt got so much credit over a headbutt
4. Knockout of the year: Casa V Kats
This was also on my list of fight of the year, I thought it was an exciting fight
5. Upset of the year: Hopkins V Pavlik
I agree with a previous poster, it was the manner in which Hopkins did it.
6. Comeback fighter of the year: Hopkins
Although he looked pretty good against Calzaghe, he did a 180 degree flip on Pavlik
7. Event of the year: Cotto V Margarito
Although for the general public I know ODLH V Pac was the bigger "event" I think more true boxing fans were very very excited about this fight.
8. Worst fight of the year: Wlad/ Rahman
Further cementing the crappiness of this division
9. Prospect of the year: Victor Ortiz
I dont know why I like this guy but good power, good speed, and good boxing ability and he is very marketable.
10. Robbery of the year: Andrade V Bute
Even my girlfriend was upset at this.
The key is Self-discipline.
