londoner Posted April 7, 2011 Share Posted April 7, 2011 Possibly the best fight so far this year. Can't think of any that have been quite as exciting. Shinsuke Yamanaka vs Ryosuke Iwasa was good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WelshDevilRob Posted April 9, 2011 Author Share Posted April 9, 2011 Finally watched this tonight. Tremendous fight! The earlier rounds were chaotic madness - nearly every shot thrown was a finishing punch. Marquez deserved the win and a superb performance by him. Great fight and I'd definately want to see a return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
londoner Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I hope we see a rematch very soon. We've seen a lot of FOTY candidates already this year but i still think this one is top. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littleman370 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 great, great fight. it had nearly everything a FOTY needs: awesome action start to finish (ok more like start to round 6 or so), awesome crowd to spur on our ring heroes, and really fun sounding commentary even though i didn't understand a word of it! for the sake of Our Sport, i hope we get a better fight but this one was one to remember for sure sometimes when i see a knockdown on box azteca i just expect to hear"GOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLOLOLOLOLOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL" from the commentators.
