Donaire. I suppose whoever wins in the Froch-Ward fight would have a real chance of being FOTY.
Donaire? For what?
He didn't even get KO, Monitel got up and the Narvaez fight? Seriously?
The tards just keep going...
This may be a long shot, but I think Robert Helenius will have a strong claim. Especially if he beats Chisora convincingly.
So far he's KO'd Peter and LiaKhovich. A KO of Chisora might be icing on the cake.
I was thinking Helenius too, but it's hard to make an argument for fighter of the year when said fighter did not fight for any of the major titles..
donaire for sure :D
For beating two guys half his size that was huge underdogs? Not to mention one of them was quite possibly the most dullest fight of the year.
No chance!
Gotta say I agree with BoxingGenius27, Helenius is bringing some excitement to the H/W division he might not be facing the best opponents out there but he's heading in the right direction & he's staying active, winning in very good fashion.
He's exciting man, he takes risks!
Rios on the other hand, well, his opponents just get worse & worse, every single one is handpicked to suit him. He's now facing John Murray ffs!
I can't think of 1 single fighter style-wise that is an easier fighter for him than Murray. A guy who got destroyed by Kevin Mitchell who was out the ring for about 18 month or something drinking himself to death & suffering from depression.
