Review: 2008-03-22, the fight between Librado Andrade (26-1-0) and Robert Stieglitz (31-1-0) was valid for the IBF super middleweight title eliminator, and the winner would fight against Lucian Bute. Both boxers had lost once in their career (when they tried to win a world title), Andrade lost against Mikkel Kessler, while Stieglitz versus Alejandro Berrio. The fight ended in the eighth round after a tough fight full of action, Andrade defeated Stieglitz by TKO. Watch the video!
Review: 2008-11-08, Joe Calzaghe (45-0-0), having debuted in 2008 in the USA defeating Bernard Hopkins, returned overseas to challenge one of the strongest boxers ever: Roy Jones Jr (52-4-0). As against Hopkins, the “Italian Dragon” Calzaghe went down in the first round, but then he managed to win a match in which it gives its best, “Calzaghe seemed to fight like Roy Jones Jr” when the American was in his best years, mocking his opponent. Joe Calzaghe vs Roy Jones Jr was one of the best boxing fights of 2008 and it is also the last match of Calzaghe (retired undefeated). Watch the video!
Review: 2008-09-06, the fight between Juan Diaz and Michael Katsidis was valid for the vacant IBO lightweight title and it was one of the best fights of 2008. Both boxers in 2008 had suffered their first defeat, Juan Diaz (33-1-0) against Nate Campbell, while Katsidis (23-1-0) lost versus Joel Casamayor (probably the best boxing fight of 2008). So for both this match was really important, the fight had a very high pace (more than 1600 punches thrown in 12 rounds) and it was very balanced; in fact Juan Diaz defeated Michael Katsidis by split decision.

Review: 2008-03-15, the first fight between Manny Pacquiao and Juan Manuel Marquez ended in a draw, so after four years the two boxers fought for the second time in one of the best fights of 2008. Pacquiao (45-3-2) knocked down Marquez (48-3-1) in the third round but the Filipino just won the fight by split decision (most journalists had Marquez winning over Pacquiao!). This second fight between Pacquiao and Marquez was valid for the WBC super featherweight title. Watch the video!
Review: 2008-07-05, after the first fight held in Colombia, where Kendall Holt lost versus Ricardo Torres, the two boxers fought the second time in USA. This second fight lasted just one round, but it was amazing: Torres knocked down Holt twice but after a few seconds the American knocked out the Colombian! Kendall Holt (23-2-0) defeated Ricardo Torres (32-1-0) in just 61 seconds and regained his WBO light welterweight title. Watch the video!
Review: 2008-03-22, the fight between Joel Casamayor (35-3-1) and Michael Katsidis (23-0-0) was, for us, the fight of the year of 2008. Katsidis, after winning the interim WBO lightweight title in 2007 against Graham Earl (one of the best boxing fights of 2007), defended his belt against Casamayor, who had 37 years old (nine years older than Australian boxer). Katsidis knocked down Casamyor in the sixth round but the Cuban knocked down “The Great” both in the first and in the tenth rounds when the referee stopped the fight (first defeat for Katsidis).

Review: 2011-04-17, both fighters are very young, Katapech Sor Sooradech is 17 years old (red trunks) while Saenpech Keeanpechnoi is 16 years old (blue trunks), but they fight already like two champions. Katapech enters for the second time in our ranking of the best muay thai fights of 2011, as he had already fought very well in 2011 against Petchkarat Jitmeuangnon, with whom he had lost, but this time Katapech wins the battle.

Review: 2011-04-24, the fight between Anuwat Sithhorm (45-17-1) and Patchkrarat Jetmeuangnon (48-16-2) is one of the best muay thai fights of 2011 and could win also the title of “fight of the year”. Both fighters are very young, Anuwat is 19 years old (blue trunks) while Patchkrarat is 17 years old (red trunks), but they are already very technical, explosives and maintain a very high pace throughout the match. Anuwat Sithhorm defeats Patchkrarat Jetmeuangnon by split decision defending victoriously his Channel 7 See championship belt. Watch the video!
Review: 2011-04-30, the best fight of the UFC 129 was not the main event St Pierre vs Shields (or the nice KO victory of Machida over Couture), but the preliminary fight between Pablo Garza and Yves Jabouin. It was a really nice fight thanks to the high pace and the spectacular submission of Garza (flying triangle choke) that defeats the striker Jabouin, dangerous both with punches and kicks; one of the best mma fights of 2011. Watch the video!
Review: 2011-05-07, during the k-1 and muay thai event Fight Zone 5 it was scheduled the fight between the thai fighter Bovy Sor Udomson (82-41-2) and Liam Harrison, but the english fighter has been replaced with Hichem Chaibi. The fight was very exciting, Hichem Chaibi defeated Bovy Sor Udomson after five round of action (with full muay thai rules), a real muay thai war, one of the best muay thai fights of 2011. Watch the video!
