    It wasn't staggering, but for me being a nuthugger, JC's performance from rounds 5-12 v Kessler was fabulous. I was convinced we were seeing the changing of the guard at SMW after round 4. Kessler looked very much the strong, up and coming youngster overthrowing the long time king. Joe's subtle changes to his tactics was spot on. Kessler never looked to be in the fight after this. Sheer brilliance.

    On a side note, Haye getting off the canvas to KO Mormeck was more of an obvious candidate.

    There were alot of great moments, but the one that sticks out in my mind is the crashing of the Peter myth by McCline.
    Jamaal took the fight at the last minute and came in determined. I loved his pre-fight attitude, he didn't back down one bit.
    Had he spent more time in training, he may have had enough stamina to finish Pete. Regardless, he made Pete's chin more mortal, and his fight with Oleg more interesting.
    Pete should be applauded, too, for coming back like he did, nonetheless, his indistructable chin image is now tarnished by the old journeyman, and which has now thrust him into a precarious future.

    Best moment: Calzaghe unifying the division and proving the doubters wrong yet again.

    Worst moment: British fans booing US anthem, totally cringe worthy. Worse than Ricky losing.

    For me, it's easily Calzaghe v Kessler.:smoke

    Audley v Sprott was a beauty:yep

    The worst part was seeing Dunne get his ass handed to him:-(

    2007 Highlights

    Calzaghe finally getting some recognition stateside although the delay has been partyl his fault

    Khan getting dumped on his arse by Limond, Warrens face was a peach

    Haye knocking out Mormeck and signing to fight Macca

    Alex Arthur pickig up a belt, even though its a pish interim version, its nice to have a Scot holding a "world" title lol

    Rafael Marquez v Israel Vasquez - brilliant, say no more

    Audley getting knocked the **** out by Sprott, total genius, makes me smile everytime I think of it.

    Ricky Hatton bending over in the ring and offering his arse during his fight with Mayweather, unfortunately for him it was the best thing he did in the whole fight, took the defeat very well though
