Mauricio Herrara "EL MASTRO" should be fighter of the year!

[Rostov Papa]

But instead, he got robbed two times in really big fights.

He would definitely be FOTY: Taking Garcia's "0" and taking the "0" of a hot, up and coming blue-chip prospect. And then beating a very tough Johan Perez for WBA interim title.

Ridiculous ...

[Daylyt]

he is FOTY!

Terrence Crawford but Herrera has had a good year as well.

I don't know, Herrara's win over Garcia is better than Crawford's win over Gamboa.

Then Benavidez, and Perez are better than Burns, and Beltran... Or it's close.

But the fact Crawford was a favorte in al those fights, whereas Herrara was underdog in two of them - well bookies had him evens for Benavidez - but he was huge 'dog against Garcia.

he is FOTY!

Damn right! We taking back boxing from the BS judges!

Yeah, Max Kellerman made this point as well and I completely agree.

yeah max lil bit on it was 100% and at least Herrera got his respect and everyone who knows boxing knows he is the real champ at 140

[Sugar Adam Ali]

Yeah he should at least be in consideration if not the winner..

He had a helluva year. Earned a lot of peoples respect this year. Al Bernstein said he's a top fighter at 140. That's how much respect he has in the game. Despite what the judges did to him on paper.

[Rostov Papa]

Thanks for the responses my good lads!

Everyone at least recognizes he's the real lineal champ at 140.

Both the Garcia, and Benavidez fights Maestro won at least 8 rounds. I don't see either of them closer than 116-112 for Maestro.
