There have been a number of these "Fighter Of The Year" polls, pretty much after each major fight.. We had one after Pavlik, Calzaghe, Cotto, etc.. but I always felt that it is premature to pick a FOTY while the big fights are still on the horizon.
Now that the last Mega-Fight is over, I'd like to thank all the Boxers, the promoters, the networks for making this a great Year of Boxing!
Now Lets Vote!
TOP 3 Candidates:
Kelly Pavlik - KO Zertuche, KO Miranda / KO Taylor - An underdog in last two fights. Dominated all three opponents. Down in a Taylor fight, but came back and knocked Taylor out!
Miguel Cotto - KO Urkal, KO Judah, UD Mosley - No comments necessary
Pretty Boy Floyd Joy Money Sinclair-Mayweather - SD De La Hoya, KO Hatton. Two biggest fights of this Millennium. While being a favorite in both fights.. Mayweather defeats the bigger De La Hoya and KO's, what many thought his toughest opponent yet.

Paqcuiao, Calzaghe, Juan Diaz - Honorable Mentions, but did not do enough to be considered with the fighters above.
