      Salido vs Lopez 2!!! By far, but we're only half way into the year. Hasn't been a great year for boxing... I was really disappointed with the way Arce vs Rojas turned out, but I could see Soto vs Lucas & Ortiz vs Canelo as good candidates.

        It was pretty good because I guess we didn't know how it would go. Alvarado had he stronger shots, but Herrera wouldn't stop. Both gave it.

        they dont have the guts to nominate a fight that the average boxing fan has not seen
        Usually FOTY are ones on big broadcasters like HBO. Khan Maidana won the 2010 right, but IMO there were 2 fights that were better, I just forgot them now though LOL.

        Cotto and May was pretty active and also showed a lot of everything from speed, physical control, strong jabs, hooks, upper cutts, a tight guard defense VS a shoulder roll, counters, blood, shakey legs. It was not a classic, classic, but was enjoyable for me.

          Jessie Vargas vs Lanardo Tyner was a good scrap.

              Bute barely landed anything though.

                it was not a classic. it was one sided. a very good win, but nowhere near a classic fight

                  Matthysse vs Soto
                  Guys like Seth Mitchell, Brandon Rios, Giovani Segura coming off injuries

                  Maybe Froch vs Pavlik.

                  Those two match ups could potentially steal the title of FOTY.

                    Malignaggi vs Senchenko so far for me. Salido vs Lopez didn't do it for me bcuz I knew Lopez was going to lose.
