    Cotto-Torres was better than Cotto-Margo.

    this fight's going to be forgotten fast and i'm surprised no-one's mentioned it - but liakhovic v. brewster is a heavy gatti-ward and the best heavyweight fight you'll see since (and maybe including) lewis - klitschko.

    a rare moment in recent HW history. check it out.

    Let me just say.....A LOT better.
    Cotto vs Mosley wa at least as good.
    Cotto vs Judah was also better IMO.

    i agree. and that hook cotto took in round 2 is one of the cleanest punches i've ever seen.

    Vasquez-Marquez III
    Corrales-Castillo I
    Trinidad-Mayorga
    Trinidad-Vargas

    (I though Cotto-Judah was a great fight as well as Pac-Morales I and Pac-JMM II)

    My personal favourite fight of the decade so far was Tito vs Vargas.

    Bika - Codrington, and Ward - Burton weren't elite level fights but should also get a mention.

    Dunne - Cordoba has been FOTY so far.

    As Im in the UK I gotta say that the beating/lesson Calzaghe gave to Lacy was one of the greatest performances Ive ever seen,considering all of the hype about the' new Tyson.'

    Corrales/JLC. Simply amazing action, controversy and huge comeback. It had everything.
