    Thank You 2007 - NOW Let's Talk FOTY!

    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.

    Underdogs are always favored to win Fighter of the Year.
    It'll probably be Pavlik.
    He deserves it though.
    He performed well.

          This was not my nomination. I was poking fun at the name.

                Sprott vs Skelton!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

                I'd pick Pavlike seriously though, like someone said it is all about the underdog.

                oops just saw the post above: It's Pretty Boy Floyd Joy Money Sinclair-Mayweather

                    I think it'll be Pavlik as well.
