    Was Tony v Cleverley the fight of the year ? ( for you):bbb
    It delivered more than I could of anticapated and more than anyone else if what I was reading was true running up to th fight.

    Walsh vs Appleby no doubt about it. That was a stunning fight.
     
  4. Walsh vs Appleby was better.

    I'd put it, Saturday's fight, on par with Choi vs Asiku in terms of excitement.

    British fight of the year? Mitchell-Murray has to be up there too.

    World it’s difficult to look past Conception-Marquez, with Rios-Acosta, Rodriguez-Wolak and Berto-Ortiz coming up behind.

    Top five domestic definately, in with Mitchell-Murray, Apps-Walsh, Webb-Arron.

    Won't break the top 10 internationally.

    Not normally but that fight was exceptional!!!

    My pick would still be mitchell murray or walsh appleby.

    To be honest Degales fight was probably better than the main event. Both were great to watch!!!

    It was very good, but is behind Appleby-Walsh and Mitchell-Murray (my number 1 domestic FOTY).

    I agree with Flea, Rios-Acosta was an epic fight!

    People putting other fights ahead of Marquez-Concepcion? Blasphemy!

    In terms of British fight of the year I thought it would be difficult to surpass Webb-Arron, but Walsh-Appleby did that.
