Is Calzaghe Now The Frontrunner For Fighter Of The Year?

[robjr]

nope Kelly Pavlik is my vote.

Pavlik has had the break out year I think. Hard to pick against him for fighter of the year.

[Technical_Skill]

After last night's boxing masterclass by Joe Calzaghe, is the Welshman now in pole position to be named Fighter of the Year?

Nah, he will be on the list though, Pavilk is a good shout, but i think it will go to mayweather if he beats hatton, meaning he beats De La Hoya and Hatton back to back in the 2 biggest fights of the year. He would deserve it.

polls amaze me. it's 30 - 13 but no one has posted saying they think calzaghe is

[OptimusWolf]

Assuming Floyd-Hatton isn't a stinker then the winner should be FOTY. If that is a stinker but Cotto dominates shane then Cotto gets the nod. If Mosley wins or that fight is sloppy then Pavlik takes it.

Calzaghe can't possibly be considered over Pavlik, who also IMO has a limited chance as explained above.

wins over zertuche, miranda, and taylor > wins over manfredo and kessler

[xzworks]

if hatton wins,, i pick him hands down!!!

[Dynamite Kid]

Pavlik or PBF if he beats Hatton

Pavlik must be up there, but if Hatton was to beat the man regarded by most as the best boxer on the planet he would take it without question.
