    I had a lot going on in my personal life earlier this year and didn’t really watch much boxing from December 2023 through the end of April 2024. The only big fights I’ve really seen are Parker vs Wilder, Canelo vs Mungia, Loma vs Kambosos, and Usyk vs Fury. I want to catch up on some other good fights I’ve missed during that period. So what would you all say are the top 10 fights so far in 2024 (you can include December 2023 as well)? Many thanks!

    Tszyu-Fundora was NOT a good fight. Once Tim got cut it was boring as he could not see.

    Raymond Ford has been in 2 FOTY contenders this year. His fights with Otabek Kholmatov and Nick Ball were fantastic.

    Time to add Owen Cooper vs Ekow Essuman. That was a great British scrap.

    It wasn’t the prettiest fight to watch but it was still a fun bruising slugfest. Not FOTY but I’d consider it one of the better fights of this year so far.
