Fight Of The Year Candidate's So Far.

[Otley]

Half way thru the year and it would be interesting to find out what your opinion would be for fight of the year so far, at the moment I think its between:

Julio Cesar Chavez Jr v's John Duddy
Mikkel Kessler v's Carl Froch
Antonio Escalante v's Miguel Roman

In my opinion I would go for Antonio Escalante v's Miguel Roman. I think this was a great little tear up and a true slugfest right up to the very end.

Job Biscuit (Chavez Jr v's Duddy a close second)!!!


eh eh!!

Banal vs Yoo.

I believe ICB started a thread on this.
Let me see if I can find it, he's got a list going...

I would consider Chavez Jr - Duddy for round of the year (round 6?), but otherwise it was far too one-sided for me to pick it for fight of the year. Kessler - Froch and especially Escalante - Roman were both far better.

Adding Roman Martinez vs Ricky Burns to the list.

I got these two fights tied at number 1 spot.

Lopez-Marquez (competitive) ~AND~ Pacquiao-Margarito (1-sided)

I've seen quite a few good fights this year but nothing that really stood out as a sure fire FOTYC. Here's hoping Katsidis vs Marquez gives us something to remember. Currently I'd go with Froch vs Kessler which was 12 hard fought rounds, just lacking in any really memorable dramatics that make fights like Corrales vs Castillo classics.
