    if algieiri beats manny then you have to consider him since he had 2 huge upsets and won 2 titles in different weights. Bhop if he beats Kovalev and algierir doesn't beat Manny. Crawford and Gonzalez would be next.

          It has to be Floyd He beat Maidana who was supposed to do tarver vs jones II, make him quit and he was supposed to be unstoppable. And he beat him with 8oz and 10oz gloves in a rough and tough fight and a boxing match. he defended his welterweight championship and Junior middleweight championship. Remained the #1 P4P, undefeated, and made Pac turn down his chance to get it. its hard to put someone over that.

            No mention of Canelo? I know it's hip to hate him but come on! The least he deserves is an honourable mention.

            Actually I'm torn between him and Crawford (assuming both win vs Clottey and Beltran respectively), leaning slightly towards Crawford.

            Gonzalez could be in the runnng if he beats another good name before the year is out.

            As for Hopkins, Kovalev would be a great win, but Shumenov is a fairly weak second best win, so I don't think he should be FOTY.

              Algieri if he beats manny

              Hopkins if he beats kovalev

              Cotto and canelo had a shot if they ended the year with big wins but they don't seem to be taking a big fight till next year

                Canelo doesn't belong in the discussion for FOTY. Crawford fighting and beating Burns in the latter's home turf, beating Gamboa, and beating Beltran, who was robbed against Burns is more impressive than Canelo beating Angulo, who was tailor made for him, and failing to impress against Lara.

                  I don't even think Crawford should be anywhere near there either. Sure he beat Gamboa, the name Gamboa. You really have to see all the advantages he had against him.
                  What were those advantages?

                    The big difference is that Canelo was 50/50 or a slight underdog vs Lara, whereas Crawford was a heavy favourite vs both Burns and Gamboa.

                    And Lara was coming off his career best win and performace vs Trout, while both Burns and Gamboa looked average to terrible in their last God knows how many fights before Crawford.

                    Like I said, I'm leaning slightly towards Crawford, but saying Canelo doesn't belong in the discussion is a huge stretch. I can definitely see a case for him being FOTY.

                      B-Hop, Kovalev, Roman, or Maidana.
