At the end of the day they could've gave the FOTD to paulie malignaggi, but the fact remains that doesn't mean he can beat anybody. The award can't fight for you.
The debate for pac vs floyd is getting old now. Facts are facts, floyd is unbeaten and has a better record than pac. Pac has been knocked out twice, floyd didn't get knocked down from shane mosley.
Let the pacfarts come in here and cry, but the truth is very obvious to people that have been following boxing for longer than 4 months ( average pacfart ).
Just like how I knew lewis would K.O the overrated tyson, I know floyd would easily beat pac.

First off I implore people to remember that Floyd is still the most hated of all boxers, perhaps due to his astronomical success, or his ****iness, or self serving style.. Whatever the reason, the hate is there.
The FOTD award is nice and all, but I do see a point to it being over lauded.. Its basically a hype implement. Its a way for boxing to perpetuate its own myth.
Having said that, Floyd is the foil.. Aint no way he's gonna win a popularity contest. That's like the most hated kid at a school being voted class president.. Smart Floyd fans realize this and have moved on.

FOTD was really a 3 man race Pac, Floyd, and Hopkins and IMO in that order.
I don't understand why the decade that Manny won is the only decade that FOTD means absolutely nothing. Nobody was saying that in 90's or the 80's or the 70's or the 60's or the 50's but in 2000-2009 it means nothing? Whatever...
Did Floyd deserve it? Sure you can make a case he was the runner up IMO. But, Pac deserved it also and earned it too. To say he didn't or only won cuz Floyd is hated or cuz is a "popularity contest" which is absurd/ I will call bull****.
