    I know Burns v Martinez was epic but is there any ones that have slipped under the radar. I'm gonna be looking for stuff to watch next week when the missus is in hospital.

    Was Maidana v Corley any good?

    Concepcion-Hammond was a decent domestic scrap.
    Cotto-Alvarez isn't a FOTY contender IMO
    Roman-Escalante is a must watch!!!
    Haven't seen the others :-(

    Was Chavez v Duddy any good? I refused to watch it at the time coz of my hatred of junior.

    I'm amazed it's not on Youtube yet. I'll try and get it up within a few weeks. Other top fights I have seen this year that might not have been mentioned so far are; Oscar Andrade vs Ramon Valadez (4 rounder of the year, again not on Youtube :-(), Alex Leapai vs Travis Walker (clear favourite for heavyweight fight of the year), Antwone Smith vs Lanardo Tyner and on the domestic scene Gary Skyes vs Andy Morris and Denton Vassell vs Lee Purdy.

    Am i the only person that really enjoyed Sykes-Morris? Thats my fave fight so far. Martinez-Munguia is good. The Mcwilliams Arroyo loss that was mentioned already was a good little four rounder.
