    ESPN: Kirkland vs Angulo Announced As Round of The Year!!

    http://espn.go.com/boxing/story/_/id...angulo-round-1

    The award goes to Round 1 of Kirkland vs Angulo.

    I can't say that I disagree with Dan. I could've easily seen this fight being "Fight of The Year" as well.

    Any suggestions for honorable mention?

      I think that the 1st rd of Tyson Marquez vs Concepcion was as good.

      Most definitely Marquez vs Concepcion was the FOY in 2011.

      Also Thomas Dulorme got a mention, this guys is going to be one of the best p4p guys in boxing in a year or so. He can fight righty and southpaw, he can box beautifully or KO you, he has power and speed, offense and defense.

      If he has a good work ethic I doubt anyone beats him in the near future.

        Perfect choice for round of the year

        Not sure how it can be fight of the year since it was basically a blowout after 2 minutes

              Haha I can see why you would see it like that.

              I thnk Angulo was still landing bombs in the 3rd round though... After I watch replay's, I can see how some will think Kirkland blew him out. But while watching the fight live, you didn't know if Angulo would land a fight turning punch.

                Of course Ortiz-Berto round 6 could have won.

                But I think he got it right.

                  hard to disagree with that choice.
