    There's three fights over the next 8 days that have Fight of the Year potential. Which of these fights do you think will be the best?

    If it's anything like the 1st fight, I would say the PW/SM bout.

    Williams - Martinez could be a technical affair, Froch - Abraham could be cautios and cagey in it's nature. Marquez - Katsidis will be all out war, a brawl to the finish and nothing less. Fight of the year.

    Honestly, with Froch/Abraham I expect the first three or four rounds, Froch to cautiously try and box AA while AA just covers up. Then in the fourth round on AA will start opening up and KO Froch in brutal fasion shortly after.

    Now that's a tough question.
    All three have FOTY potential. I think the only fights that have absolutely no chance of being bad, are Marquez vs. Katsidis and Froch vs. Abraham, and of those two, I have to go with Froch vs. Abraham.
    It may be just personal, since I have a thing for the Super Middleweight division.

    All three are great fights but I think Martinez-Williams II will be the best and most closely matched and most back and forth swings.

    JMM/Katsidis, due to the brilliant clash of styles.

    The other two will fall slightly short of expectations. Williams/Martinez will be a little more cagey, whilst Abraham/Froch may end up looking like a drunken brawl (not the type that impress me too much).

    Marquez - Katsidis, i mean come on, the other 2 will be boring compared to Marquez - Katsidis, so i pick Marquez - Katsidis


    Marquez - Katsidis the reason i ordered the special offer of HBO and Showtime for 15 bucks today, plus i get to see the other Four


    1.Marquez - Katsidis
    2.Williams - Martinez II
    3.Maidana - Khan
    4.Darchinyan - Mares
    5.Froch - Abraham

    I say pwill vs Martinez. AA won't allow the fight to be exciting till the ninth round and I fully expect Marquez to blast katsidis out far worse than baby bull.

    all looks good but i think froch vs abraham will be the best one. PW-Martinez should be good but both are not a big puncher. Marquez-katsidis is really a mismatch.
