    Nope, had it continued as it did early on then it would have been easily, but the knock down in the 4th was the beginning of the end as far as who was going to win goes, in a round Cotto was actually winning that knockdown ****ed him

    No. FOTY candidates are usually close suspenseful fights like Marquez-Vasquez. This was, well...if you saw the fight.

    For me it is. Those first 4 rounds were epic.

    The last half of the fight was too one sided and painful to watch at times (for Cotto), so no.

    The First four rounds had more excitement and drama then any other fight this year....

    for me at least

    There isn't even a FOTY "award" really, it's just an honor bestowed by the Ring Mag. It isn't like there's a ceremony involved or anything.

    We the fans can certainly bestow the honor of "First Half of the Year" - there's nothing stopping us. :conf

    It was a good fight but i don't think it would win fight of the year.
