Kelly fought more, fought better and made the biggest splash within the time period. Easily gets this. Calzaghe (LMAO) - Mayweather (As stated, one fight) - Pavlik hands down.
They put so many boxers with only 1 MMA fighter......the boxing fans will be divided in voting, while all MMA fans will be unanimous. It's bullshit. :pat:
GSP on there is pretty strong, but if they put Anderson Silva on that, then it would be truly unanimous support. GSP has a decent chance at winning, however the mayweather support is ridiculous merely out of the familiarity of his name.
I voted Calzaghe because Kessler and Hopkins are better then Taylor, Miranda, and Lockett.
It kinda sounds bad since Taylor beat Hopkins twice, but he looked like garbage in doing so.
I know this is a boxing forum but I would have to say that St.Pierre's accomplishments in the mma in 07-08 would rank higher. let me put it this way, if st.pierre is the #1 fighter in his division, than he beat #2, #3 and #4 in the past year.

Very good point.
Still has to be Mayweather though.
Pavlik at the moment, but where is Manny Pacquiao? I think he deserves the award more then any of them.
Stephen A. Smith probably came up with the list. If you dont speak English first then they pretend you dont exist. Its pitiful.
Joe Calzaghe
Holly Holm
Floyd Mayweather Junior
Kelly Pavlik
Georges St. Pierre

ESPN only nominated Holly Holm because she's blonde and has tits. She beat a chick with a 23-19-3 and a 5-5 record outside of her win over Sanders. What a fucking joke. What about Pacquiao or Wlad Klitschko?
