Is Tarver the fighter of the year with a win?

If Mayweather beats Judah than he should get it. If Judah wins then he should get it. Simple as that. Mayweather would succesful move to 140 to capture a belt and then move to 147 to capture a belt. Judah would beat the top p4p and win his 2nd big fight of the year, the other being his KO victory over Cory Spinks.

This is the start and the end of the argumeny right here. FOY will always go to a 3-0 fighter over a 2-0 one, though I'll feel bad for Corrales if he pulls off the second win because it will be two years in a row when he will be close but not quite enough for this honour.

not corrales (cheaters dont deserve to be Fighter of the Year).
if floyd beats judah, yes.
rahman has had only one fight this year and hes a joke, so no.
calvin brock, no.
jermain taylor, no.
jeff lacy, if he beats joe cal, yes.
winky wright, one fight this year, no. his next match has to be a super match.
judah, if he beats PBF, yes.

as for tarver, only two fights this year (RJJ included), no.

I think I agree with this guy for the most part.

In an earlier thread about this topic I figured Jermain would get it if he beat Hopkins in the rematch but I think that's out the window not because of the controversial nature of the first fight. Even a convincing second win probably won't do it for him.

Lacy has an outside shot as well but most writers will probably think of Floyd first when it comes time to name names.

I say whoever wins in the Castillo-Corrales rematch deserves to be fighter of the year.

Im going along with Gonzolo here

I say whoever wins in the Castillo-Corrales rematch deserves to be fighter of the year.

If Chico wins, maybe. But Castillo isn't getting fighter of the year by going 1-1 just because the fights were exciting.
