    I liked Tyson-Holyfield, but it didnt deserve that FOTY. but you know, big names often get more recongnition than they deserve.
    like look at Ali. he was fun to watch and all, but did he really deserve the FOTY award for his fight with Spinks? Hell no, especially considering Norton-Holmes was the same year.
    and I dont encyclopedic boxing knowledge, so I cant really say the year fights happened, but I have a hard time believing that Ali's fights with Liston and Foreman were really the 'best' fights that year. I have an even harder time believing that Ali vs. Doug Jones was the best tha t year.

    but big fights with big names are going to get awards evren if theyre not necessairly the actual 'best' fights of the year.
    norton holmes was great.

      i got bored as all hell when i saw ali vs foreman.............i dont enjoy hw boxing that much...i like joe frazier, lennox lewis, mike tyson, evander and wlad thats about it....i respect ali but i find his fights pretty boring, foreman is exciting but just too sloppy for my liking....his fight vs liles was a ****ing war though............
