Best Fights of the Year 2021

From your list Roman Gonzalez v Juan Francisco Estrada but also have to mention Sam Eggington v Bilel Jkitou

 

Good list

 

Roman-Estrada 2.

 

1. Chocolatito v Estrada 2
2. Usyk v Joshua
3. Kambosos v Lopez

 

There is still couple of fights left until the end of the year, so let's wait a little more.

 

I know the wars usually win these sorts of things, but Usyk-AJ was a lightning speed chess match and I think it's up there. It was quite unusual in that aspect because it's a heavyweight fight. Both guys were intense and frenetic for the whole 12 rounds.

 

Outstanding year of boxing! My personal favorite was the Cruiserweight war between Apochi vs Glanton. Hands down the best undercard fight of the year. As for title fights, Uysk's controlled performance against Joshua was a personal favorite.

 

Estrada vs Chocolitito 2
Fulton vs Figueroa
Charlo Castano

Any of these 3 can win in my book. But most likely it will be Fury-Wilder 3, even tho towards the end it was pretty much one sided for Fury, there was plenty of drama, and plenty of knockdowns.

 

Thus far Usyk-Joshua was my favorite s ir produced an unexpected masterclass from Usyk in a major and historical upset.

Second to that would be Kambosos-Lopez, an unmitigated full action bloody war resulting again in a major upset.

Third would be Charlo-Castano, a back and forth no holds barred battle.

 

fulton fig was great

 

I don't support it for the win but another finalist: Matias vs Jukembaev

I feel like there are other we're missing.

 

Fury Wilder 3 and Kambosos Lopez for me

 

Here's my top 3:

1. Roman Gonzalez vs Juan Francisco Estrada 2 - these guys should be given the crown in advance for next year too

2. Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder 3 - ultimately one sided but it was spellbinding in the moment

3. Troy Williamson vs Ted Cheeseman - what a war

Honorable mentions for:

Castaño vs Charlo
Kambosos vs Lopez
Usyk vs AJ
Tank vs Barrios
Apochi vs Glanton

I just can't shake the feeling I'm forgetting a big one.
