You're a dummy if you think Khan-Maidana was FOTY

LOL He who throws insults on a boxing forums is a dummy :P Darchinian/Mares was nowhere near as good,i was watching that fight first and switched over to see Ortiz's fight,You obviously no nothing about fighting,if you had just got clobbered by the hardest puncher in your weight class and you had no legs,you'd be backpeddling too! The running was better for excitement than if he would have just been hugging him the whole time,it made it suspenseful like a hound trying to catch a wounded fox!

Khan vs Maidana while not foty was much better than I thought it would be thanks to Maidanas tenacity.

Your logic is somewhat reasonable, but in a year when Calderon was involved in a FOTY, then you know it's flawed.
Boxing writers usually favor the more popular fighters and fights, so Khan-Maidana has a serious shot. Soto-Antillon or Calderon-Segura should be the front runners, but since they were on obscure PPV's between lesser known fighters, it can lose to the fights that happened on HBO or Showtime involving bigger names.
Last time a fight won that was on non-US TV was in 2006 and it was because the **** was brutal.

Soto-Antillion, Marquez-Katsidis and Khan-maidana were all great fights. Any of those fights can be crowned as fight of the year. What I don't get is why do people get so upset over silly things, like whether a fight is FOTY or not. If you get upset by things like this then your life must suck hard.

Can somebody please name the last FOTY where one guy was running more than 50% of the time, If anybody watched the Mares-Darchinyan fight, they would know that fight would rank higher in the FOTY vote.
It still was a very good fight, but Khan didn't stand in front a KNOCKOUT artist like Mares did for entire fight and kept coming foward.
