Berto vs Guerrero being FOTY is laughable. shyt was a rough and tumble ugly ass fight where the ref played a hand in the the way the fight progressed. I'm not a fan of Jay Nady, but he would have been perfect for this fight. He at least sees shyt and moves around the ring a bit. This lazy retarded fukk acted like he couldn't be bothered.

Orlando/Salido 2
Viloria/Marquez
Rios/Alvarado
Moreno/Mares

all have cases for being FOTY or at least were better than Berto/Guerrero which lacked any type of consistent ebb and flow with the action.

Guerrero fought dirty as fukk, but Berto's lack of footwork, inside fighting, and defense simply magnified the effect. I don't care to see the Ghost fight again. Nobody gonna wanna give that dirty fukk a big fight. :scusthov:

If you mean Salido vs Lopez 2 then I agree with you. It's crazy how many people haven't seen or bring up that fight. :snoop:

Yeah man, my bad. I'm glad you knew what I was talking about breh.

Yeah that was pretty damn good fight. I think it happened to early in the year so cats kinda forgot about it.

Now that I think about it. Haye/Chisora was pretty good while it lasted too.

this year def had some fight of the year candidates..salido/lopez 2 is still my leading choice..but the thing is none of the fights were high profile to the casual which means alot of them went under the radar..floyd-cotto was the most high profile fight this year and while it was a good fight it wasn't FOTY material to me

wealth tv has been the shyt for some boxing cards lately..they haven't even aired that many cards and they've had some good/great fights and couple of real low key FOTY candidates (viloria-marquez & gauthier-guerrero)..i look forward to them..i think bounce tv is on fios for me ill check that out later

my choices...price should win by ko, guzman by TKO, fury will win by decision, and cotto should win by decision

I almost forgot that fight happened this year. But I agree, it'll probably get FOTY just based off the big names.

Casual fans don't recognize these younger guys.

I want Rio vs Alvrado because it turned out exactly how it was billed. No disappointments, evenly sided, and pure entertainment. In theory, that's how a boxing match is suppose to be every time.
