    I'd bet you that the fight on the undercard is better.

    Perez-Mares has FOTY candidate written all over it.

    Martinez v Pavlik was good. I watched it again yesterday, and I might have had Pavlik up by a couple of points, which surprised me, cause I thought Martinez ran away with it when I watched it the first time.

    Yeah, you know why that surprises you?
    Because it's insane.

    Rounds 3 and 4. That was the surprise. I might have had Pavlik winning those rounds. Coupled with the extra point for the knockdown he could have won the fight. Not insane, just numbers .

    My top 10:
    Escalante-Roman
    Kesseler-Froch (also, those last 3 rounds are up for ROTY in my book as well.)
    Nashiro vs Cazares II
    Poonsawat Kratingdaenggym-Satoshi Hosono
    Dirrell-Abraham
    Brinkley-Stevens
    Adamek-Arreola
    Abregu-Gutierrez
    Angulo-Julio
    Karmazin-Miranda

    It's been a good year thus far, a lot of people on here just haven't been paying attention.

    The problem with this year so far is that a lot of the big name fights were too one sided, Pacquiao-Clottey, Mayweather-Mosley, Martinez-Pavlik,etc.

    Fortunately, Pacquiao-Mayweather is still on the horizon so this year still has potential for an epic FOTY candidate.

    Agreed, if it wasn't fight of the year that was certainly round of the year so far.

    Cazares-Nashiro II, Escalante-Roman, also liked Kessler-Froch and our Koki Kameda vs. Wonjongkam (though it was rather an action-packed boxing match).

    Maybe not fight of the year, but thought I would throw this one out to those across the pond that haven't seen it:

    Gary Sykes vs Andy Morris

    Try and find a copy of it if you can - great fight :good

    This:deal

    But the year is far from over! Some good match up in super-six is comming with Froch vs AA and Ward vs Dirrell! Also looking foreward to Dawson vs Pascal
