    Lol @ the GGG votes. It's to be expected though.

        Yeah. You know the posters that voted for him would never consider ANY OTHER boxer for FOTY if their victories were over Murray, Monroe jr. and lemuiex.

          The rest of your post is irrelevant, this is for fighter of the year.
          Of course now that he beat him we have people like you that say he WAS SUPPOSE TO but we know going into the fight many still though Pac could beat him.

          And while on paper Furys win looked impressive it wasn't. He didn't take the title from Wladimir, Wladimir gave it away.

          And I am discussing this year. Mayweather deserves it.

            Klitsckho has also been KO'd several times, has been regressing for a while now, and fought a guy in his physical prime with a size advantage over him. Tyson Fury had literally every advantage over Klitsckho aside from experience and people are seriously considering Fury as the fighter of the year? Mayweather Pacquiao was a much bigger fight than Fury Klitsckho and Mayweather won it.
            Remember Pacquiao was ranked number 3 p4p on everybody's list before that fight, was fighter of the decade, the second biggest attraction in boxing, and was only a 2-1 underdog.
            Floyd has the bigger win no question about it.

                It's not even close.

                My thoughts exactly.

                And let's not forget Holly Holm. Yeah, she's an MMA fighter now, but she also shocked the world and did the Noble Art proud by boxing the sox off Ronda.

                Holly deserves a mention here, and a pat on the bum from Tyson while making him a cup of tea.

                    Triple G is getting the votes of the people who don't want to vote for Fury.

                      GGG for me. Fury obviously has win of the year, but take into consideration he was winning over an ageing past-prime champ, and that the fight itself was poor in quality. Golovkin had another magnificent year, allround.

                      AND he's a quality character, inside and outside the ring.
                      You voted for GGG because you can't bring yourself to vote for Floyd or a guy that beat Wlad.
