Whathe is the fight of the year so far 2017?

Joshua vs Klitschko. First big fight in a while that lived up to the hype and then some. I watched it in a bar full of casuals and it was the best atmosphere I've ever seen in a pub for a sporting event, and that's including the big football games I would go with that. Beer all over the place in the 11th. Full on 'oooh Anthoony Jooooshua' chants after the fight. Was immense.

It was a great fight... but I kind of feel the consensus is that way because it was a bigger/more important fight, not a better fight. The consequence of which being 2 fold.... 1) More people saw it and 2) It sticks in the mind more, because of the size of the event and because they had a dog in the fight. Also... Degale Vs Jack was in January... people have short memories.... but yeah... like I say, I was at Wembley for AJ Vs Klit... so I'm not knocking it.... it was a tremendous event, backed up by a great HW fight... a fantastic night.... I watched Degale Vs Jack on the tele... and I just couldn't believe the heart shown in that fight. Jack had such a size advantage and Degale was taking a beating... but he just kept going... it was one of the best fights I've seen in years. They need to fight again, DeGale and Jack

I think in terms of sheer volume its Roman vs Rungvisai. In terms of drama I would go Joshua vs Wlad. Depends what you like. Two different sports really trying to compare these two fights. I would probably be more entertained rewatching the SFlW's, but can you beat the intensity of watching Wlad vs AJ live? Wlad vs AJ. Final answer.

For me that wasn't competitive enough to be in the fight of the year conversation. It was simply a beautiful performance from Estrada, basically a schooling The first half of the fight was close. Estrada didn't really take over until the second half of the fight, but Cuadras was still game even though he was losing rounds. If you don't think it was fight of the year, I understand that since there were a lot of great fights this year. But I think it at least belongs in the conversation.

I respectfully disagree my friend. I myself was buzzing for weeks after the Joshua-Klitschko fight. Just my opinion that AJ-Wlad is fight of the year so far. Though that also seems to be the consesus with boxing pundits, analysts, etc, etc.... DeGale-Jack was a hell of a fvcking fight though. I want to see them rematch each other at 175 or whatever!

I was there live.... but for me, it's still Degale Vs Jack.... AJ Vs Klit was great, don't get me wrong.... but it kind of felt like Klit had the better of AJ, and then AJ just pulled it out with a big shot... whereas Degale Vs Jack was a real war... you never knew who was going to come out on top.... Jack was perhaps getting the better of it... but the heart of Degale was something else.... AJ Vs Klit never really had that... Yes... AJ got up from a KD... but it wasn't like he was ever really digging deep because of a beating... he was mainly just gassed because his stamina is ass.... whereas Degale was really taking a beating and still coming back for more.

Imagine if you saw Joshua-Klitschko live with that crowd, Woo-Wee!!!!! Wow. Would have been a great natural high, I probably wouldn't have been able to sleep for two days because my adrenaline would have been pumping so much.

Degale v Jack, it was a great matchup with lots of drama. I don't wanna say Klitschko v Joshua cos the buildup and post -fight was so goddammn boring...

I thought was I being biased picking Estrada vs Cuadras because I saw it live and live crowds always make the fights more exciting, but I see other people picking that fight as well. Joshua vs. Klitschko is my second choice. Imagine if you saw Joshua-Klitschko live with that crowd, Woo-Wee!!!!!

So far Aj vs Klitschko Floyd vs mcgregor joke fight but technically biggest money fight of the year. Tonight's fight with triple G vs Canelo is the biggest of the year Rigo vs Loma is the best fight coming up Honourable mentions Garcia vs broner Frampton vs Santa Cruz Degale vs jack Canelo vs Chavez Golovkin vs Jacobs Crollas vs Linares Crawford vs indongo Brook vs spence Garcia vs Thurman Ward vs Kovalev

Joshua-Klitschko, but I'm surprised Ward/Kovalev II is not mentioned. Well, I guess I'm not surprised since some thought it was controversial.

Estrada vs Cuadras, by a long way...

Anthony Joshua vs. Wladimir Klitschko by a country mile. Anyone who says any different is a hater and shouldn't be taken seriously.

Degale Vs Jack for me.... the man lost his teeth.... it had everything.

I watched it in a bar full of casuals and it was the best atmosphere I've ever seen in a pub for a sporting event, and that's including the big football games I was buzzing for like 3 to 4 weeks after that Joshua-Klitschko fight.

AJ/Wlad for me too.
