Terence Crawford - fighter of the year?

[tito_bandito]

It's a joke to mention Crawford as fighter of the year. I see a promise in him, but there is no way that u can rate someone who beat Beltran and a smaller guy as fighter of the year lol. Pacquiao and Canelo had the best win all year.

[_original_]

I'm pretty sure Manny Pacquiao will win it, not so much because of who he beat but the impact he had this year. Also, it's been a really slow year. Moreover, Pacquiao really build his brand up this year after losing a decision to Bradley and getting put in a coma by Marquez, Manny looked great this year. Other fighters might be more deserving (Gonzalez, Kovalev, and Crawford) but I think they'll go with the popular guy who made waves this year and took two fighters' 0's.

I'd much rather watch Kovalev, but Crawford should be the clear winner here. His wins add up to more than beating a 49 y/o and two no hopers.

Both Agnew and Caparello look to atleast be on Burn's level, if not a bit higher.

In a perfect world Roman G. would be the winner. He's won 4 fights, faced tough opposition, won a title in a higher weight etc. Unfortunately no one saw him fight that's what will hold him back.

To me it's a race between Kovalev and Crawford. I give Kovalev the edge as he swept Hopkins and won two more belts.

It's between him and Kovalev

You're a joke if you don't consider Crawford a serious candidate. The guy came from being a talent to being champion at lightweight in one year, beating the best guys in his division convincingly, on his way to the title.

Lol my thoughts exactly.

But the guy also said Wlad should be p4p #1 so I'd take it with a pinch of salt.

Pacquaio has the best win so it should be pacquaio.

But Crawford or ggg will win it.

1 quality win shouldn't get you fighter of the year IMO. Especially when guys like Crawford has cleaned up the best competitors.

Doubt GGG will get a mention. Competition simply isn't up to par.
