    This would have made a nice poll. I pick Diaz/Marquez

    Dunne-cordaoba for drama

    marquez - diaz for quality

    Dunne-Cordoba would get my vote but im biased because i was at it and it was the best atmosphere i ever expeience at a sporting occasion

    Andreas Kotlnik vs Marcus Reina was a great class of stlyes but unforutuantly didnt have the drama a FOTY candidate needs.

    My choice is Berto-Collazo.

    More consistent punches with bad intentions throughout the fight. Big swings of momentum.

    I think if Abregu-Garcia had been fought with more high level fighters it would be fight of the year. But, I think that because it was a couple of unknowns it is going to be overlooked.

    Abregu - Garcia was a burner! Definitely a FOTY candidate.
