Note to Journeymen and up. For the final rankings, for anyone who wants, I will be putting next to our names - Your best pick of the year (whatever pick you made this year that you think was your best, whether it be because you picked the underdog and won, or maybe because you nailed it right on, round and everything, you can go ahead and list why and if its short enough I will put it next to your choice, ) - Your fav fight of the year (Doesnt have to be a FOTY type fight, just what your fav fight happened to be for the year) - Your fav wager won - Your fav current, active, fighter. Must have fought in 2010. Nobody has to do this, or you can do one, and not the others, or do them all. It doesnt matter, its only for those who want one or more of them to be listed next to their name for the year end rankings. If you do happen to want to list your fav pick, you will have to provide the link to the page where you picked it so it can be verified. Its not as hard as it sounds, just whatever fight it is, think of what month it was in, and then click on the 'who posted' option of the thread (by clicking on the number for the posts for the thread on the general forum page) and then go through your posts until you get to the timeframe the fight was in, then find your post. Sounds a lot harder then it is. Anyways, again, its only for the people that want it listed, and for journeymen on up. If you dont care to have it listed then just ignore. :good Write as much as you want when explaining your choices, I would love reading some of the thoughts and opinions of our threads regulars..... When it comes time for me to post them, it will look as follows. (pretend I am number 1 challenger) This content is protected - This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected - This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected That is an example on how it will look. Remember, you dont have to do them all, or any of them.
There's no pic in particular I'd say is my best pic of the year.. But one of the fight I personally enjoyed alot this year was Hosono vs Kratingdaenggym. I've always been fond of japanese boxers and the mentality they bring into the ring, and I've been a fan of Hosono ever since he won the OPBF featherweight title. Relentless brawler who's not shy of taking multiple hits to land his. Was convinced after having seen him actually outbox the veteran Hiroyuki Enoki that he could win the title over Poonsawat.. He had the skills, the power, the heart, and the fight was at super bantamweight where he'd be huge next to the small Poon. The fight was really awesome (I suggest anyone who haven't seen it go on youtube and watch it) but Hosono sadly came out on the short end. So my most enjoyable fight probably should be Kessler/Froch but it wasnt. It was Hosono/Kratingdaenggym There's no pick in particular I'm that proud of. Props though to the dude (Cant remember who) who picked Magee over Larsen and to the guys who had Pascal over Dawson (Another extremely enjoyable fight) It's bloody impossible for me to pick a favorite fighter of the year as I'm split between 4 fighters: Hasegawa (Comming of a vicious loss to go up two weight classes in a great match), Kessler (One can only be inspired by the efford he put up against Froch. A true viking warrior!), Froch (From a close war and a close decision to an utterly dominating performance. Never gave him a chance), and ofcourse Pacquiao. I'm just gonna go with my national hero and say Kessler. Favorite bet would have been the avatar bet with BigBone.. Sadly I lost it.
either ive under estimated how much money ive won kirk or youve forgot to deduct your wager from me. Anyway as its the last month im up for betting everything ive got in order to make as much as possible. Just issue a challenge.

We are doing one final bet, and you know it! Thx for the updates. And for your money in advance! :hat
- Your fav fight of the year Probably Marquez V Katsidis, i love a good old war and these two certainly provided this - Your fav wager won No one taking me up on my bet that Dawson would beat Pascal, i was saved a mighty beating there - Your fav current, active, fighter. Preferably someone who fought in 2010. Hard one to call, probably go for Lopez at the min, hes exciting and good enough to fight at top lvel yet is floored enough to know he could get caught out at any point and this is essential to make great fights
