MAB vs JMM is FOTY IMO...
Pavlik vs Miranda is a close second...
Oh...and Pac is going to fight either (Valero-Guzman-JMM-Barrera) this year!
This is going to rock!
Yes Marquez vs Barrera was a great fight with controversy added to it,but it didnt have as much action,nonstop punching like Miranda-Pavlik,Marquez and Barrera were punching in burst,where as Miranda and Pavlik wouldent stop punching with mean intentions until it was over

It was a great fight, but it was no FOTY.
To one-sided.
PERFORMANCE OF THE YEAR???? Probably. That was incredible.
I agree. Even though I was on the edge of my seat the whole fight and there was hardly any lull in the action I felt like Pavlik dominated the fight from round 1. Miranda did his work, but it was usually at the end of the rounds. Pavlik dominated for the longer times in the rounds. I felt Miranda maybe had won 1 round. If it wasn't as one sided I would call it fight of the year. Pavlik's performance was one of the best i have seen in a while.
So you guys think this fight was better than Bell-Mormeck II, Vasquez vs. Marquez, Barrera vs. Rafa? I might even be forgetting some other ones, these are just off the top of my head.
I loved this fight, but Barrera vs. Marquez was the better fight, in my opinion at least.
Just wait for Hatton-Castillo and Margarito-Williams though! Weve had some damn exciting fights this year already, and theres still more to come!

can somebody please upload this fight now!
sounds like its the FOTY so far..
but just wait for katsidis v diaz ;)
My ex just called me asking if I saw the fight and her exact words were "that white boy beat Miranda up sooo bad it should have been a hate crime!" I was like wtf? lol
Miranda won MAYBE 1 round.
Lost 5 rounds and was knocked down 3 times.
Thats one sided.
I agree.
He almost got knocked out in round 1, technically went down in round 2, was exhausted in rounds 3,4 and 5. Was dropped twice in round 6 and knocked out in 7.
Pavlik could not have fought much better. Everything i had hoped he was turned out to be true.
Great white hype my ass
I think we have a new superstar on our hands, and Taylor-Pavlik is a superfight.
IMO yes,there was so much intesaty,Pavlik shocked most boxing fans,great war,the first round was BRUTAL
It was a great fight, but it was no FOTY.

That fight was aamazing. Me and my friend (who dosnt even watch much boxing) were jumping up and down and screaming at the TV when Pavlik knocked Miranda down. What a war, Pavlik is the fuckin man, also respect to Miranda for taking some huge shots and still gettin up, with some defense he could be a champion. I wanna see Pavlik knock Taylor's head off.
dam i missed it im so sad...
was it a beating like gatti mayweather?????
i could cry
No both guys were throwing and landing but Pavlik was throwing more, landing more and his shots affected Miranda more.
He controlled the ring, landed cleaner shots and had a better D.
Like I said, obviously this was the more exciting fight, but mayweather/dlh did set the ppv record and had a lot of implications and a ton of hype going into it. That kind of stuff is significant, just look at some past foty winners, namely the fight it most closely resembled: hagler/leonard.
I understand where your coming from but the fight was too dull to be considered FOTY.
I didnt see it as 1 sided,they both were landing KO punches that had me jumping up and down lol,but Pavlik was more controlled,backing of Miranda,it wasnt 1 sided,Pavlik was just better
Miranda won MAYBE 1 round.
Lost 5 rounds and was knocked down 3 times.
Thats one sided.
Mayweather/De La Hoya? Are you on crack?
....but like Easy-E said,"The fight was too one sided to be FOTY."

So far its still mayweather/dlh. This was more exciting but implications matter too. I dont think either will end up being the foty at the end of the year though.

This is what boxing is all about!
gotta agree. this is what we get when wet put good fighters in the ring that are comprable. not dudes jumping 2-3 weight classes up to fight somebody.
