    Kompayak Poorpramook vs Adrian Hernandez I warrants mention. Probably my choice for FOTY over the more heralded Ortiz-Berto I and Marquez-Concepcion I fights.

    Another war that's underappreciated,I heard Sakamoto was on a comeback trail here even after 3 lose streak.

    Kevin Lueshing-Chris Saunders II

    Terrific short war. Journeyman puncher Saunders had shocked the undefeated Lueshing with a one-sided ko 2 years before and had just won the British title in his last fight in another thriller. Lueshing had run up a run of 5 wins including a 3 round thrashing of fellow undefeated puncher Michael Smyth to set up this return fight for the British Welterweight Title:

    It's been a while since I saw it, so if anyone will take a time to watch it - I will appreciate feedback - but I remember absolutely stunned by this fight a while back:
    Muhammad Alfaridzi vs Kongthawat Sor Kitti:

    With time, after watching hundreds and thousands of fights it's hard to rank them - but at the time I watched it, I thought it was the best obscure fight I've ever seen.

    I've got this in my watchlist and watched the first couple rounds before I had to step out, looks amazing truly. Which is rare because Gamez is not super entertaining in most of his title fights.
