    kegsy i think its great what youve done, well done champ....
    but i have a couple that i dont agree...
    Aussie Comeback Of The Year: has to be sakio bika had a few competetive losses in a row and won the fight on sheer heart and determination ill always say one of the best fights ive seen anywhere....
    Aussie Knockout Of The Year: kali meehan one of the best knockout punches seen by an aussie, especially against the talent and calibre of someone like williamson.....
    Aussie Round Of The Year: Round 1 of Sakio Bika vs Jaidon Codrington the final to a million dollar prize had everything in it plus more..... remember it was the first round which makes it so unbelievable....
    thats just my take however, katsidis certainly does deserve his props though....

    Fair enough mate, all 4 everyone else's thoughts.
    Yeah that round of the year was a tough 1.
    Meehan & Bika were a bit stiff probably no doubt mate.

    Top job mate.

    Glad someone is on the same page as me,Ganoy's victory over peden didnt get much props but **** it was a massive upset at the time in my books.

    massive is prob an understatement i remember reading the results that night then watching the fight the next day and being in shock.... i couldnt believe a guy that held a world title and defended against mab would be beaten by a regional fighter at best(which is what i though of ganoy) however ganoy has come on in leaps and bounds and always provides great entertainment and i really hope he gets some better matches because he has the tools to be a money making machine with a few upsets he can cause in us because his record is pretty bad atm.....
