Fight Of The Year........

[borikua]

Trinidad vs Mayorga - the best comeback in boxing.

Barrera and Morales was exciting and competitive throughout the fight. Marquez/Pacquiao was kind of one sided after the first round in my opinion. It was still a great fight but Barrera/Morales was better.

Im gona have to say Golota vs Ruiz. They were both hitting hitting each other like they wanted to kill each other. And the stands were crazy. There was a fight each round.

um, are you don king? That was not too bad of a fight, no way it was good though.

[nezahualcoyotl]

yea its gotta be Barrera-Morales 3, with JMM-Pac coming in at #2, then Trinidad-Mayorga #3.

Tha biggest fight that was all HYPE and the biggest let down of all year would be Hopkins vs. Liver. Wat a dissapointment for the boxing world. Made a lotta people "quit" on boxing.

How can Hopkins/Delahoya be the biggest dissapointment when the fight went down the way most people thought. I don't think it made alot of people quit on boxing. HBO and the other media made it quite clear it would be more than likely a mismatch. Even though Larry Merchant tried to fool the viewers by penalizing Hopkins for not being aggressive.

I guess I personally felt it was a dissapointment. Of course the 20 other people from different walks of life felt the same way. The way Liver was talking was like he was going to go balls out. He didn't much to our surprise. Still a big dissapointment.

[nezahualcoyotl]

i meant the "general" public quit on boxing after that fight.
Not the hardcore nutz.

Pac?

I watched Pac-Marquez again yesterday and still don't get the fuss. It was good, not great, fight. It was nowhere in the league of MAB-Morales III or even Corrales-Freitas. There was a hyperactive atmosphere, but no real hyperactvity outside of a few rounds. It was mostly Pac lunging and getting countered after the first with small spots of action.

[Great]

Trinidad-Mayorga
Barrera-Morales

Beyond MAB-Morales

Another note...Tito-Mayo was great, but there are a few other runner ups being forgotten. Sheika-Pemberton II and Edouard-Gibbs were also spectacular ans well as Lacy-Venderpool. All competitive (whicH Tito-Mayo was not).
