Boxingscene Boxer of the Month For March 2011

[OJ's Nightmare]

Im not sayin that Molitor is a big shot, Im just givin the Southern African credit for his progress he made over the years whereas the other fighter has declined.

winning the 3rd fight of a the trilogy with the 1st fight bein a KO defeat and the 2nd fight a decision loss (all championshipfights) is notable.

Yeah, I interpret this being about relative accomplishment. That's why I put Zab up with Sergio; if it was just about the best pure performance outright, then Martinez and Gamboa would probably win for me.

But the truth is, Odlanier Solis is just a fat pile of **** so he's not one of Vitali's better wins.

[The Hammer]

Where's the MattHatt option?

That was a courageous performance by Matthew Hatton.

[OJ's Nightmare]

Yeah, Matty exceeded a lot of expectations of him (mine included).


That one should definitely place in the upper half of this poll, too.

[J Dubb II 330]

I'm a big Judah fan, Yea he was getting hit here and there, was being to patient, but that defense, the way he was working it, just being introduced in this fight, there was rounds where Mabuza could not land and was whiffing bad, judahs maturity, the way he regained composure after that bogus kd, then out of no where with that left, and he finished him fast. Judah is my pick for sure, he is a champ again.

[bojangles1987]

I want to say Gamboa, but Dzinziruk is a better opponent than Solis. So Sergio gets the vote.

[lefthook2daliva]

I voted Martinez cause' he totally outclassed what looked like a pretty good challenger. Just beat him like a red-headed stepchild.

I'd give runner up to Cotto for a great performance against a bigger,in great shape and better-than-he-has-looked-in-years Mayorga.

Honorable mention goes to Rhakimov (on the Pirog/Maciel undercard) for being the underdog in his own hometown and pulling a great effort out of his ass to beat the 'pro-from-Dover' outta' town favorite.

Teon Kennedy anyone?

[chiguy91]

i like gamboa and zab's performances, but i gotta go with martinez...
pretty cool idea of a thread though man...

[Rick Grimes]

I enjoyed Bute's performance the most, so i'll vote for him.

[Heeb]

Where's the MattHatt option?

You gotta win your fight to be up for Fighter of the Month.
