What IYO is the 2009 FOTY so far?

[gingeralbino]

you obviously havent seen dunne vs cordoba?

thats my pick, followed by JMM Diaz.

[gingeralbino]

A lopsided fight means fight of the year?

I'll take the do or die, comeback KO over that anyday.

how the **** was that lobsided????????

[JM1]

jmm-diaz, froch-taylor, ortiz-maidana, are good candidates. still cant pick one though

Not just saying this coz im irish but Dunne v Cordoba was one hell of a fight,it had everything,it reminded me of the rocky movies,lol,an absolute war from start to finsih wit many knockdowns and comebacks,honest guys check it out,I know there not 2 of the biggest names around but I watch the vast majority of fights this year and this one takes it for me...
Followed closely by a jmmv diaz....

[cyutetrick]

anybody for pascal vs diaconu?? And Im a Marquez fan, reason im not calling that foy is because I think HBO ****ed up Diaz punches because of the home turf. Maidana-Ortiz nahhhhh it was good but in my opinion it was just a meltdown for Ortiz and I can't say anything about the fans that was Dunne-Cordova was FOY cuz I didnt see it. Ohh yea and I know this will sound rediculous but I think Cotto should get a lot more credit than he does for his gutsy performance, dude fought a world-class opponent with one eye and won by a centimeter but he won.

100% agree, add the crazy ireland ambiance and the past fights of dunne that made this one an EXTREMELY important fight in his career...

underrated fight unfortunately

I wouldnt say it was underated by the people that seen it,It wouldnt have been a big fight worldwide,just here in ireland really,Wouldnt have been a highly skillfull/tactical fight but defo entertaining and the drama and how i tot each fighter was done and both came bk...even the girlfriend and me mother who hate boxing were glued to the telly,jumping around cheering him on!!!!
