Fighter of the year so far?

[warp1432]

So yeah which one so far? I say possibly Pavlik just because he had such a great win over Miranda. He could be it if he dominates Taylor too.

I think maybe talor if he does the same, but Cottos' fight is this year which would vault him in. Also there is the Hatton Mayweather fight which could decide some things, But me personally I hope that Marquez and Vasquez fight again, and then I'll decide, It is still summmer.

Floyd.

He hit Oscar with Suzie Q after Suzie Q. His greatest showing as a professional fighter by far, and in my book nothing he's done even compared to that.

The best Oscar we've seen in years (despite being old) he beat on.

I don't like the bastard but that was impressive.

cotto, hands down. that fight with judah was by far the best this year, as for mayweather's fight, how could you even consider him being the fighter of the year, too much skill and no toe to toe= boring, and waste of money. WHEN YOU VOTE, VOTE FOR THE PERSON THAT DESERVES IT, NOT CAUSE HE'S YOUR FAV FIGHTER.

LMFAO.

Did you just state that Floyd was my favorite fighter?

Ok...check this out. Lets say Pavlik KTFO's JT...he could be the 1st guy to have 2 FOTY's in the same year...wtf right!

I find it strange that most people consider KP VS Miranda a FOTY candidate. I thought it was waaaaaaay to one sided. I only gave Miranda the fifth, but to each his own.

Haha too much skill, definately can't be the fighter of the year, because he's just way too skillful! Uhhh, what?

It is too damn early to say who is the fighter of the year so far. Everyone has only fought 1 match (or at least one significant match). Mayweather beat De La Hoya, Cotto beat Judah, Hatton beat Castillo. Unfortunately, I think Cotto is out of the picture to be honest. He has a tremendous year that would likely have gotten fighter of the year most years (assuming he beats Mosley), but the Mayweather-Hatton showdown just seems to lock it up. Mayweather's win over De La Hoya is certainly more impressive than the Judah win, and by such a wide margin that I think a win over Mosley (by Cotto) wouldn't make up enough ground in comparison to a win over Hatton for Mayweather. If Hatton beats Mayweather, there isn't even argument to who is fighter of the year. The top challenger in his division and then the P4P #1? No one can beat that resume.

Taylor hasn't done ****, and yes I know it was a joke.
Pavlik's win over Miranda was good, but it's like a win over Mayorga... against a one-dimensional fighter. Even a win over Taylor won't be big enough for fighter of the year, because Taylor's stock has free fallen in the eyes of The Ring magazine. He went from 5th to off the list in the P4P rankings within a few weeks of the Spinks fight.
Marquez and Vazquez are both total studs... but guys who bat .500 on the year, with their only fights being wins and losses against one another isn't going to be enough to get fighter of the year (they will likely be given round of the year though for their third round of their second fight). I don't even think the winner of the rubber match (if it is in December) will be enough to put them over the top for this race.

I agree 100%. I think Marquez/Vazquez II is probably FOTY right now, but could EASILY be dethroned by Marquez/Vazquez III or Mayorga/Vargas. I only say easily because it only went 6 rounds, which is never a good prospect for a FOTY candidate.
