    Gamboa, Juanma, Manny, Margarito, Williams, Dawson, and Haye will be either the most talked or the most dominant fighters in their respective weightclass. If Haye beats the Klitckos hes going to be fighter of the year.

    That is if Mayweather doesnt come back to beat Manny and Marg!

          Margarito. If he beats Mosley, Cotto, and someone else (PWill, Clottey, Berto, etc.) he's a shoe in.

          I would like to say Chad Dawson, but it's likely that he won't get the fights he needs to make it happen.

          Maybe Pacman again. Especially if Floyd comes back and he wins.

              Chad Dawson. I believe 09 is his year. he will most likely fight Hopkins and then clean out the LHW division. It would be nice if Calzaghe would fight him cuz that would really cement his FOY status in 09 cuz I believe he would win.

                  Ricky Hatton.

                  He will KO Pac, and then beat Bradley.

                  Mayweather will not come out of retirement.

                    The winner will come from a strong division and go undefeated three or four times throughout 2009 against elite fighters. If Vic Darchinyan beats Arce, Montiel and Nonito Donaire he will be my 2009 Fighter of The Year.
