I haven't seen all the fights from 2007, but from what I have seen, there are 3 that stick out:
Darrell Woods MD8 Samuel Miller
Kelly Pavlik TKO7 Edison Miranda
Miguel Cotto TKO11 Zab Judah
Although Pavlik-Miranda was quite entertaining, I think it was a bit too one-sided for it to get the FOTY award.
Cotto-Judah would have had a chance, if Zab didn't fade in the late rounds and stop punching like he always does in big fights.
I don't think Woods-Miller will be able to get the fight of the year, mostly because it is such a small-scale fight. I mean, when is the last time that an 8 round fight got a huge award like FOTY?
One that I missed from earlier this year that I heard was very good was the Barrera-Marquez fight, which I am going to have watch soon, so that could be included in the discussion if not for my ignorance. Does anyone have any good fights that they think should be included in the FOTY talks from 2007?
