He should win fighter of the year but if the fight is close or disputed it could hurt his chances. If he scores another one sided knock out I am sure most fans and most of the groups that give out such awards will give it to him.
IMO it all depends on how you rate Chad Dawson. Was Chad Dawson a hype job or was he a legit challenger at the time. I think it's somewhere in between with Dawson. I mean lets be honest he built his whole career beating up 40 year olds.
Rigo won't get it. HBO blacklisted him after he schooled Donaire. He has an irrelevant fight against Agbeko in December. He should have fought at least once more since the Donaire fight by now. It's a shame because he would have the best case right now.
Danny Garcia and Bradley also have strong arguments.
Dawson was not a hypejob at all, just made a hugely dumb move to drop to 168 and was probably damaged goods.
As much as I like GGG, he stands no chance compared to Adonis. I think he might at the very least win it with the Ring since he's taking out everyone rated in the top 10.... but I have a feeling everybody will give it to Floyd.
According to Ring, Floyd beat two P4P fighters this year, he's definitely gonna get it.
