    Agbeko last looked bad vs Mares 2 years ago and hasn't done anything since. Not a super bantam either. Good fighter, but even at bantam nothing special, hit or miss. But he is not as terrible as Rigo made him look. Unlike Bradley and Garcia who struggled with huge underdogs, though Prov was underrated at the time.

      I see your point.

      What is your opinion of Stevenson beating 3 fighters coming off really bad losses?

        Yeah that's why he's not the runaway winner. He came up in weight though, beat a well favored lineal champ. 3 divisional top 10 wins, that's pretty good. Not normally a FOTY streak (cause some were coming off losses), but nobody else had a super year. So you go with volume and some quality, or 1 really good win.

          Gennady Golovkin, Sergey Kovalev, Ruslan Provodnikov, and Marcos Maidana would be my picks from this list.

            Ali Raymi. He set the record books on fire with his performances. Disappointed the best fighter of our generation doesn't even get a spot in this poll. He went 16-0 this year. All first round knock outs against undefeated fighters.

              I like Ali, I really do; he's a warrior but his competition needs to step up & minimumweight division isn't exactly a packed division.

                Swift gets my vote.

                  The "Philly boyz" push Danny to the top... Why? Is this because he's from the U.S. and he beat the "overhyped brawler" who only beat "cab drivers"?
                  In this case Floyd, at least, beat a "young hungry champ"...
                  I don't understand you...

                    Now, it is a 76-76 draw between G.Rigondeaux and D.Garcia

                    It is very surprising for me, I don't find it logical at all !! D.Garcia doesn't deserve even to be a top 5 nominee for the award !!

                      Rigondeaux, no question in my mind.
