Fighter of the decade means nothing, here's why

[kadyo's]

Fight of the Decade:

1990s Roy Jones Jr.
1980s Sugar Ray Leonard
1970s Roberto Duran
1960s Muhamad Ali
1950s Sugar Ray Robinson

These all mean nothing

may I repeat that with a green color


These all mean nothing

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 cockiness, 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.

oscar dela hoya could've easily won the 90's FOTD if this is just a popularity contest..

Who decided pac was fighter of the decade? A bunch of fat old white men who never put on a pair of boxing gloves in their lives? Face it, the award means very little. Floyd still outsells pac and has a more impressive resume.

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.

then why dont a bunch of fat old black guys make their own award and award it to floyd as a fighter of the decade. then they can also add some *****s up in here who never wore a pair of gloves nor stepped up to someone outside the internet world as a source of why floyd shoulda been fotd. if i would go down ur level!

facts are facts pacquiao put on a show way more better in a decade than what floyd got his whole career.

*****s just kill urselves really. by the way why would *******s come in here and cry when ur the one whining about it from the moment u put on this ****ty thread.

lol crybaby

Getting your ass whooped by morales and JMM twice makes you the best? I didn't know that!

Wow dude get over it. It seems it meant enough for you to cry about it. If ya don't care then let it go, because the truth is, you're coming off like a girl who got stood up for the prom...

[pasawayako]

why this *****s can't accept that pac is the fighter of the decade? blame floyd for retiring instead of fighting cotto and margarito don't blame the bwaa for floyds cowardice.
