    Casamayor vs. Corrales (exciting)
    Trinidad vs. Mayorga (powerful)
    Ruiz vs. Golota (crazy, Circus, I was waiting for the fan man,
    to drop from the sky)

      To me Trinidad v Mayorga and Morales v Barrera were one sided fights. Trinidad and Barrera won and it wasnt close. Jirov V Mesi was a complete brawl where Jirov almost pulled off an amazing comeback. If Pacman v JMM won though that wouldnt bother me.

            Easilly my Fight of of the year vote.
            How can it be the fight of the year when it was a horrible performance on the part of both men involved? Pacquiao did nothing outside of round 1, and in round 1 Marquez got put on his ass THREE TIMES! Horrible effort by both men

              I'd vote for MAB-Morales III, because it is exactly what the fight game is all about (or, should be). No glamourous KO, no one-sided decision, just two very skilled and hearty fighters mixing it up for 12 full rounds.

              Never heard it said that MAB-Morales II was one-sided, until this post. I saw it very differently, alot like the judges actually. Partly why it gets my vote for Fight of The Year 2004.

                    This an impressive list, but the misfit is Trinidad-Mayorga, which simply was a mismatch. It was treat for Trinidad fans to watch their guy against an opponent that literally stood in front of him all night long. Truly, that match-up could never be considered as Fight of The Year, unless you like watching one guy totally out-class another and then beat him down? Trinidad was expected to win that fight, despite all the hype around the long layoff. Mayorga was dangerous early, and he always is, but there was no way a conditioned Trinidad was going to lose that fight.

                      To get floored 3 times in the first round and outbox your opponent for the next 11 rounds is not what i would call a horrible effort.
