Pacman. I don't even like the guy.

**Konfusious** · 03-05-2009, 09:30 PM

I'd probably say Hopkins-Pacquiao and Mayweather to me. Good list, couldn't think of anyone else to include

Wonder how Hop was not PFP number one in 2003?

Pacquiao I think. Floyd is one of my favourite fighters from this decade but you just cannot deny what Manny has done. He deserves to be known as the best fighter of this decade, no doubt. Especially if he beats Hatton.

hopkins didn't do nething in 2003, while roy jones won a heavyweight title and beat tarver that year

**Easy-E** · 03-05-2009, 09:42 PM

Floyd is the fighter of the decade.

**Konfusious** · 03-05-2009, 09:44 PM

Hopkins fought 2 bums in 2003 in Hakkar and Joppy. That's why he wasn't pound for pound in that year

**Chups** · 03-05-2009, 09:45 PM

Pacquiao twice Fighter of the year this decade.

Floyd fighter of the year 1998? & 2007?
