I don't know how to embed because I'm **** but the link works. Round 5 was incredible. Both men down. One down twice, the other three times in the fifth and once before that.
From those I've seen, Lucas-Molina and Coyle-Brizuela. A FOTY, seemingly self-evidently, should be about the FIGHT and its narrative rather than the fightERS who participate and their skill levels. That's what fighter of the year is for. Not saying that Crawford-Gamboa isn't a really good fight (it's to 5 most years) but in terms of drama, narrative and sustained action those are the two best I know of.

coyle brizuela has a maidana/ortiz moment, when coyle goes down by a body shot and when he gets up he sends brizuela down with the first punch he threw (a right hand) that moment was amazing
