Was Marquez vs Vasquez III better than Cotto vs Margarito?

[ferocity]

Marquez v. Vasquez was better then Cotto v. Margarito, no doubt about it. The skill level was higher and two little guy who carry bombs in there hands. And you never knew who the winner was till the end.

HBO will replay their best fights of 2008. According to BS posters, Margarito vs Cotto is the best of those fights. Now I ask you this. Did Showtime's top fight, Marquez vs Vasquez III, outdo HBO's best fight?

Which was better?

They were Both awesome battles and entertaining to the MAX... Cotto Marg ended with a KO... so.. That's why it gets my vote..

Izzy-Raf was a lil better, although they basically followed the same pattern of both fighters each dominating 1 half of the fight. Boxer piles up points, then the puncher beats the hell out of em in the back half. Izzy-Raf was all around a lil more skillful too.

I think Cotto vs Margarito, because the way the fight went through and the outcome too. It was a great great fight. Very entertaning fight!!!!!!!!

Yeap exactly!!!!!!!!!!

Vasquez/Marquez was better. I think Cotto/Margarito might have had more consistant action, but Marquez/Vasquez had bigger moments. The 12th and 4th rounds were pretty remarkable. I might have Adamek/Cunningham over both actually.

Yeah, I remember that 12th round. I knew right there that Marquez let that fight slip away from him. Props to Vasquez for bringing it with all he had at the very end.

I missed that Cunningham fight, looks like I'll have to download it now.

One of these two fights has got be the FOTY in terms of top notch competition, competitiveness, and drama.
