    Which fight or fights have so far been your fight of the year?

    Mayweather - DLH was a huge fight for me, and I thought it was an excellent tactical fight :)

    Cheers

    I really enjoyed Marquez-Vasquez for the time it lasted!

    Marquez-Vasquez, Marquez-Barrera, and Mormeck-Bell II get my vote. Cotto-Judah, Katsidis-Earl, Clottey-Corrales and Pavlik-Miranda were all great fights, but too one-sided to be considered FOTY.

    Marquez Barrera. Best entertaining technical fight so far.

    So far? Probably Judah-Cotto

    Mormeck-Bell II was until the last 4 rds ruined the whole damn fight.. the first 8 were outstanding.

    Pavlik-Miranda was a one-sided beatdown.

    I don't think it was fight of the year, but I couldn't see how anyone could call this dull. Extremely good tactical fight, as you say. ODLH was much harder for PBF to figure out than many thought, but PBF impressed by getting over what (I think) was a little panic in the early rounds, to take the bout over the second half of the fight. Very impressive.

    good sign as well, two of my mates who aren't really boxing fans (don't mind it, but haven't really watched since the Benn and Eubank days) thought it was enjoyable.
