Whyte vs Parker is FOTY with GGG vs Canelo 2 not too far behind.

Haven’t seen Whyte vs Parker. I will check it out.

If Parker had KO power he would be the biggest badass in boxing since Marquez. He has the best chin in the sport at the moment and I'm sure he beats Wilder.

I like his skills too. I know that some felt he got burned vs Whyte. Been meaning to see it.

Parker's chin is very good but i doubt his chin is the best in the sport. At HW Wach got better chin i think. But if you meant only top 10 fighters then i ageee.

The shot that Whyte hit Parker with is one of the heaviest shotsi have ever seen a fighter get up from. And Parkers legs were remarkably steady too. It was a much harder shot than Groves flooring Froch or Katsidis flooring Marquez. I'd say Parker like those 2 mentioned, has a legendary granite chin. Canelo & Golovkin deserve mentions too in the chin stakes.

My main point with this thread was to demonstrate what an entertaining year of boxing that it has been, anchored by the HW and Cruiser divisions.

And there is a lot more to come!

Yeah I am pretty sure there has never been FOTY like that in the past... WAIT A SECOND....

Usyk/Breidis
Taylor/Postol
Gassiev/Dorticos

Not a FOTY obviously but Jacobs-Sulecki was a nice fight too

Loma vs Linares easily in my opinion..

Dillian Whyte V Joseph Parker.

Usyk

GGG v Canelo 2. But the wrong person got the nod.

Parker v Whyte was good.

Wilder/Ortiz. back and forth affair between two of the best in the division, with stunning end.

Wilder - Ortiz
Chisora-Takam

For foty imo

But it all honesty I might be forgetting some other good ones.

I do not understand how people say Takam vs. Chisora.

Chis spent every round against the ropes then landed a KO punch. That’s it. It was a crap fight.

I did enjoy that fight.
