Im gonna have to go with wolak-rodrigues.....
it wasnt a title fight or anything but it was had more action, back forth and blood n guts(wolaks eye) than any of the other candidates....
what do you guys think was fight of the year and why?
I'd have to say it's a toss up between Froch-Johnson and Wolak-Rodrigues.
With honerable mention going to Berto-Ortiz.
really?
i watched it twice and the second time i realised it was still ver good but not foty IMO...
but i watched wolak rodrigues live and again two days after and both times it was almost as good as gatti ward.
i loved this one but i still think it has to be wolak rodrigues....
I forgot about Wolak Rodriguez good fight..I have to run with Rios Acosta because of that ending and back and forth action threw out the fight..But I can't be mad at that pick...
I got Rios Acosta still,with Ortiz and Berto coming up next then Froch Johnson..I would have had Agbeko Mares as fight of the yr,but what all the tom foolery in that fight noway...
Gotta say either Berto-Ortiz or Maidana vs Morales. If Maidana fight had a knockdown i would say it was forsure because second half of berto ortiz was kinda boring. I never saw thew Wolak fight. Also Rios vs antillon was a crazy three rounds
The first half of Ortiz vs Berto
Wolak vs Rodriquez
I really enjoyed David Diaz vs Lundy. That was a really good fight with Knockdowns, trading, lots of blood and an excellent KO to end it.
Wolak vs Rodriguez is the clear FOY to this point
Marquez vs Concepcion
Maidana vs Morales
Lee vs McEwan
Rios vs Acosta
Berto vs Ortiz
are the next 5
finally we can agree on something SC! :)
rios/acosta for me. but really all these fights you can make just as good of an argument for being FOTY. arce/WV2 fight on pac/mosley undercard was inspiring. . . ortiz/berto was straight out of a movie. . . acosta/rios was the perfect "style clash" - mover/outside boxer/puncher vs. banger/inside fighter. you could feel the tempo gradually change in that fight.
that was a sick one too.
Ortiz-Berto was good for the first half only. Second half? Nah...
Wolak-Rodriguez, is the one I'm edging so far. But, I doubt they win the award.
exactly what i think.
