    Last year i had

    1.Israel Vazquez SD12 Rafael Marquez III
    2.Antonio Margarito TKO 11 Miguel Cotto
    3.Adamek SD Cunningham
    4.Carl Froch UD Jean Pascal
    5.Joel Casamayor KO9 Micheal Katsidis
    6.Rogers Mtagwa-Tomas Villa
    7.Adam Richards vs. Chazz Witherspoon - IF you can find it, HW fight of the year. Sick sick fight.
    8.Chris Arreola KO Travis Walker
    9. Pacman SD JMM
    10.Steven Luevano Draw Mario Santiago

    This year i dont have a list yet(still a lot to go), but i also missed quite a lot of fight which i plan on catching up to. However so far i have

    - Juan Diaz vs Juan Manuel Marquez
    - Carl Froch vs Jermain Taylor
    - Jean Pascal vs Adrian Diaconu

    Sorry none of Pac's fight qualify. One sided beatings can't be considered FOTY
    I would need some help on the other great fights i missed this year so far. Thanks ESB!

    FOTY for a lot of us is Berto-Collazo so far, what an amazing but somewhat overshadowed war by the scores. Maidana-Ortiz was an absolute war too and there's Dunne-Cordoba too.

    There are some underrated fights as well, I think Abraham-Oral was very good so was Kotelnik-Maidana, Stieglitz-Balzsay, Concepcion-Salado and that's just few of them. I've heard Campillo-Shumenov is a good candidate too, but it's impossible to get a copy of the fight.

    No point in doing a top 10 for this year yet seeing as nearly every big fight has still to come. From now to the end of the year is going to be awesome.
