    Not sure about FOTY, Szpilka vs. Wach Round 10 was ROTY.

    Swift - Lara, Linares - Loma, Canelo - GGG 2. My next few choices would probably have been abroad aswell. Haven’t been that many great fights in the UK this year, most of the builded up ones have been disappointments. Maybe Saturday could change that...

    Loma v Linares in terms of elite level boxing.

    Fury v Wilder in terms of drama.

    Jacobs v Derevienchenko was a good fight I thought.

    Ramirez vs Hart was surprisingly good. Maybe not FOTY good but a runner-up candidate type.

    Chisora-Takam comes to mind...It wasn't a particularly skillful fight, but most exciting, non-stop action war? Yes. Has to be the best fight this year surely.

    Round 12 for ROTY is a good shout I think.

    Warrington vs Selby was top 3 for me. I loved the huger , tenacity and determination of Josh that night. Great fight.
    Bellew vs Haye II i really liked as well.

    Wilder - Fury had everything. Except decent scorecards.

    Toss up between;
    Kownacki vs Martin
    Zappavigna vs Saucedo
    Briedis vs Usyk
    Possible;
    Whyte vs Chisora 2
