After yet another fabulous year for boxing broadcast by Sky and BoxNation, it's time to reflect on the fights that have ignited and excited the fans in 2013. Here, in descending order, are my personal top ten.
10. Billy Joe Saunders WPTS12 John Ryder, London, 21st September
Hatfield ace Saunders had boxed four times racking up 38 rounds by the time he came across Ryder, his biggest domestic rival.
Middleweight Saunders was pushed hard all the way by his strong unbeaten challenger and despite a late flurry from Ryder, Saunders came away the winner on all three judges' scorecards to defend his British and Commonwealth belts.
Despite picking up a hand injury, which ruled him out of fighting in November, Saunders is back in action in February defending his British title and win will see him win it outright.
