        Pacman has earned this honor in my book. If Margarito would have not took the last several months off and fought someone good later in the year a case could have been made for him but since he only fought twice I have to give the nod to Pacman.

          Yea, Joe does deserve some props for his year because the record will always show he defeated B-Hop.

            I forgot Calzaghe, but I think all 4 of them were impressive than Joe.

              Pacman is obviously the fighter of the year

              Calzaghe should be in the poll. He came to America and beat 2 American legends (Hopkins and Roy Jones). He is the runner up for fighter of the year.

                All of these guys are underdogs..

                Joe Calzaghe was the favorite to beat Hopkins and Jones..

                    I would not put Joe above Manny for FOTY, I just think he deserves to be on the list.
