Fighter of year. Fury

Fight of year. Frampton warrington!

Upset. Saunders getting his belt taking off him by telling them to shove it up their arse. He was very upset.

Robbery. Not sure its all subjective.

Ko of year. Bellew getting sparked by usyk. That was beautiful!

[Coco]

Let's get some polls going

[jamamb]

wheres ruthy to start a poll thread for each award

[Coco]

We could add prospect of the year too
Also best personality, and the worst!
Best trainer, manager, promoter

[JamieM]

Boxer of the year is Josh taylor for me.

Fight of the year was welborn v Langford 1

Upset of the year Ronnie clark v Zelfa Barrett. The odds also seem to suggest this.

Robbery of the year for me is Tyson fury v deontay wilder

Knockout of the year would be usyk of bellew. Just broke him down and a simple shot that out him away.

My opinion

[kbackup408]

Fighter of year - Usyk (solid year no doubt the best CW in 2018)

Fight of year - Canelo vs GGG (thought it was a very good fight hard to pick a winner)

Upset - Hunter vs Bakole (honestly bought into the Cyclone hype train and thought he would do Hunter but guess it counts as an upset)

Robbery. Stevenson vs Jack (jack won that fight 7-5 bad decision not a robbery but closest thing to it)

Ko of year - Whyte KO'ing Browne (reminiscent of marquez KO'ing pacquiao)

[jamamb]

i had stevenson beating jack tbh, i know many others did

[MF DOOM]

If Warrington wins I don't see how people can see past him for FOTY. It was more of the same for all the usual suspects. If Warrington wins you will have a fighter who started out on VIP non-televised bills holding wins over Selby and Frampton and a world title. I can't see how you would look beyond him.
