What has been your personal favourite this year? I would say mine was Manny Pacquaio Vs Juan Manual Marquez, that was explosive from start to finish. :D

Marquez vs. Pacquaio's probably the fight of the year.
MY FAVORITE was Tarver-Jones II (got any excuses tonight, Roy?) and Lacy-Vanderpool. I also liked seeing Matt Vanda KO'd
Pacman versus JMM for me also. Regardless of the scorecards and that one judge's mistake, I thought that Marquez boxed Pacman's ears off once he cleared his head.
Yeah PAC-JMM is still the leading contender for FOY honors followed by Trinidad-Mayorga, JMM countered magnificently but no way that he boxed Pac's ears off, its was as close a fight can be....
I'm still eagerly waiting for the upcoming superfights like MAB-EM III...

What?? No votes for Golota/Ruiz? I'm shocked!
I actually have not yet seen Pacquiao/Marquez (I know I missed out on a good one) but from what I've seen I'd have to say Trinidad/Mayorga.
Non one has mentioned Jose Luis Castillo vs. Juan Lazcano?
Quite possibly the brutalist fight of the year. It in my mind easily beats the Tito/Mayo fight and is certainly comparable to JMM/PAC. I love watching this fight, it was the two best lightweights in world and they killed each other for 12 rounds. Lazcano has the heart of....I don't know but a heart of something really good, he looked like he was ready to be put 6 feet under afterwards.
Great fight that is being overlooked for sure!
Great fight indeed. Forgot that one. Coming into the fight, Juan Lazcano was looking very good and he and Goosen were saying this and that towards JLC. Well, JLCastillo just beat him up.
Juan Diaz-Lakva Sim was entertaining as well. Though it looked that Juan is getting the better of Lakva, but man, that Mongolian is a one tough mutha!
But for sheer excitement, thrill (anticipation of another sudden KD from the PacMan) it's gotta be Marquez-Pacquiao. Both men were trying to bully each other, neither one giving the other the chance to dominate/dictate.
Yeah, we can't forget about Vitali-Sanders, that was a great fight to watch. Corrie was abit slow though as Manny, the left hand was always there and kept the suspense high. Fight of Year without a doubt, Manny vs JMM. Runner up for me would be Vitali-Sanders. Exciting maybe Mayorga-Tito 1st rd. 2nd rd, to the 8th, wasn't too exciting watching 1 man get the crap beat out of him...
