7. Comeback fighter of the year : Oscar.

Why do you consider Vazquez-Gonzalez an upset? Vazquez was, is the Ring champion at that weight. Gonzalez was the one moving up in weight for the fight. I'm not exactly sure but I think Vazquez was also the slight favor going in. I'm just wondering why you consider it an upset?

Most were predicting Gonzales to win...I was one of the most. Hence the reason that I considered it an upset.

Vaz might have been the champ at that weight & he might have been considered that by Ring...but going into the 7th...IWO...Gonz was on top of the fight until Vaz clocked him. Gonz had lowered the boom on Vazquez in the 4th and 6th rounds with several left hooks but he worked his way back through it & then pretty much hammered him in the tenth round.

Gonzalez was ahead on the scorecards...again...hence the reason I saw it as an upset.

What about Litzau's last fight though?

Interesting list but you totally lost me with Guzman-Barrios as robbery of the year. Hell I thought the scores were way too close, I don't see how Barrios won more than 4 rounds. But interesting list overall.

Totally agree. If there was any robbery in the Guzman fight it was that it was so close. Guzman won that fight 9 rounds to 3 to me.

Your right , that was a damn shame. Quartey won that fight by a fairly wide margin, Also thought that Campus kicked Duddy's ass pretty convincingly... those fucking New York , New Jersey judges suck ass and are on the take ! You can trace almost all the bad decision in the U.S . to New York and New Jersey. The athletic commissions in those states need a good cleaning out !

[CityOfGod]

I thought Guzman had control of that fight all the way through.

His first round was stunning and i would select that as my round of the year (one of them) - he was a bad ass in the 1st against Barrios!

* Punch of the year : Demetrius Hopkins vs Michael Warrick

* Most Horrible Fight of the year: Briggs vs Lyakhovich (Horrible fight until the knock out)
* Most Perturbing Fight of the year: Rahman vs Masakev (Finally, Rahman has no other competition in the heavyweight division except Wlad, all he has to do is be smart and careful in the final round and he walks towards a HUGE Klitschko payday and a chance to become "Ring" champion, but he loses focus and throws away the fight. If that's not perturbing, I don't know what is.)
* Irony of the year: Tarver losing to Hopkins partially because he was burned out from losing all that weight, but he couldn't use that legitimate excuse because he dismissed Roy Jones when Jones tried to use the same excuse about being weight drained when he looked bad against Tarver in the first fight.
* Excess weight of the year: Castillo - 139.5.
