It's a Popularity contest he was part of the biggest event of the year and it's all
Subjective anyways.

I see a good number of Floyd fans saying they would have picked other people so I think that tells its own story.
The magnitude of the event was obviously influential and I think they got this decision wrong. I think they got trainer of the year wrong too.
But, it's all subjective as the poster above says, they're the members of the association with a vote so if that's their pick, that's their pick.Last edited by Weebler I; 01-28-2014, 11:54 PM.

Adonis Stevenson....Why?
Started the year with a revenge match
KOed Chad Dawson the lineal champ in 1, stop with the "he was done" excuse
Stopped Tavoris Cloud
KOed #1 contender and his mandatory challenger in Bellew
No fight went the distance and the fact that he went from obscurity outside of Canada to a global name in one year. The rate at which his stock went up is way to impressive.

How many fighters are even being looked at because of the notoriety that Floyd brings to the sport? Last year was an amazing year for boxing overall and for a lot of boxers/fighters but Floyd stole the show not just with flawless performances, but being a part of the biggest grossing fight ever, that matters not just to Floyd but to the sport.
