    Khan round of the year?

    I always thought round of the years would be back and forth action not a one sided beating?

    :lol: had to laugh earlier on today. Over at the scene Old Man Peterson (PWilly's Trainer) Claims that Williams was in control of the bout and that Sergio threw a fluke punch.

    So that choice for KO of the year cannot be right :patsch :rofl

    I loved round 12 in Froch-Kessler. Khan-Maidana Round 10 wasn't competitive it was just gripping because it was like a killer stalking his prey in a film. Wouldn't call it round of the year...IMO.

    Williams and Peterson are a pair of delusional cocks. For years I've listened to them bleating about how Williams has been avoided and how no one gives them a chance. They then proceeded to insult Sergio Martinez in every way in the rematch then, when Sergio knocks Paul's overrated ass out, they complain that it was a 'lucky shot'.

    All you need to look at is how the shot landed - perfect position, leverage, angle. That wasn't lucky in any way, shape or form: Sergio had been looking for that shot for the entire time it lasted. He'd thrown a similar shot four times already.

    I really hate Williams. From his chicken-wing punches to his prima-donna attitude. **** him.

    I also don't agree with Round of the Year, since I'd have gone for round three of Marquez-Katsidis.

    From a technical point of view, Paul Williams is (or was) one the worst fighters at World level currently. A total fraud and American hype-job. He's just awkward because of his frame, nothing else. I knew Maravilla would knock his head off.

    That's a good shout, the knockdown and the onslaught from Kats and then a masterful comeback from Marquez with his sublime accuracy and will to win. That was a really classy round IMO and would be far more deserving then a fighter being chased around a ring on auto pilot.

    Baas vs. Romero as the upset of the year.

    Lopez vs. Concepcion round 1 or Mayweather vs. Mosley round 2 as the ROTY.

    Everything else is pretty solid.

    Have to say after the 1st round it was only a matter of time before Martinez put him down with that shot. Landed it an unbelievable amount of times in those two round and Williams done nothing about it.
