Pavlik/Miranda = FOTY

[El Termible]

You could tell it was gonna be a good fight from the first round. I would love to see a rematch when Miranda is in better shape. FOTY for me, I haven't seen Bell vs Mormeck II.

This fight was the highlight of my summer. I had been looking foward to it since it was annoucned and it far exceed even my high expecatations. I love when the referee Smoger breaks the fighters up in the 2nd round he goes "beautiful, beautiful" shows he's a true boxing fan. Even thought Pavlik dominated the later rounds, Miranda still hit him with some huge shots early and mid rounds. Both these guys have great chins, and I cannot wait to see Pavlik fight (and hopefully destroy) Taylor. I highly doubt there will be another fight that can top this one this year, and I can safely say that this is my FOTY.

Btw, I have HBO on demand and I've probably watched this fight close to 10 times, never gets old

that won't happen, Taylor will just jab, jab, straight, backpeddle and box his way to a decision. That's what Emanuel Steward has taught him. I know you guys have noticed that. B4 he fought Hopkins that man was a beast.

One that I just remembered that really hasn't gotten the recognition is Earl/Katsidis which was earlier this year I think (correct me if im wrong), but both men went down in that fight.

yeah i havent seen the mormeck bell but i preferred the katsidis earl stoush over pavlik miranda. maybe because katsidis is my favourite fighter but because it was an all out war.. earl down a couple of times early and then katsidis touched down as well. bit one sided but a real battle.

In Bell and Mormeck II the fighters were a lot more competetiv and the fight was really close, but Mormeck ran to much after the 7th. And Miranda vs pavlik had as many punches but lesser rounds. I liked it so much when Miranda got his ass whopped, I watched the fight again after it ended.
My vote goes for Pavlik Miranda

If there were no low blows to slow the action Cotto-Judah could be FOTY.
