The 2008 ESPY's best fighter award nominees

[The Hammer]

Joe Calzaghe, with wins over Kessler and Hopkins.

Pavlik second: 2 wins over Taylor

[Feint]

I'll say Pavlik with Calzaghe a close second.

[supermandathoe]

**** I meant to vote for Pavlik. He should get that nod this year.

[Scott9945]

lol @ kessler being better than anyone bhop beat

Yeah, no way is he better than Morrade Hakkar or Robert Allen.

[Chups]

They put so many boxers with only 1 MMA fighter......the boxing fans will be divided in voting, while all MMA fans will be unanimous. It's bull****.

[NeXt In Line]

I think it's either Pavlik or Calzaghe, if it had been from May-June 08, it'd be Pavlik no doubt because that would have included his knockout of Miranda as well.

It looks like you can vote now, only if you have an ESPN account.

Cotto was nominated last year and they had a picture of his brother.

Very good point.


Still has to be Mayweather though.

I know this is a boxing forum but I would have to say that St.Pierre's accomplishments in the mma in 07-08 would rank higher. let me put it this way, if st.pierre is the #1 fighter in his division, than he beat #2, #3 and #4 in the past year.
