Comments Thread For: BoxingScene.com's 2015 Fighter of the Year

... it was Pac as the most disappointing fighter of the year rather than Floyd as the FOTY...

ANDY LEE AND WLAD WENT OUT AS SUCKERS TO THE SAME EXTENT
at least pac actually hurt floyd a few times..at least he threw combos when he cut the distance..he just wasnt good enough...
andy less and wlad just didnt have enough balls to trust their own skills..

... though, I use to rate Pac above Wlad or Lee... anyway... Pac was a huge disappointment... no heart at all...

What name calling?

Dude, you're saying the heavyweight champ of 10 years crapped his pants.

I'm literally getting dumber by speaking with you.

And I you.

It's obvious to anyone without blinkers on that Wlad crapped his pants. It's not the first time it's happened in his career either.

[taste]

but that's not what I'm saying though.

I'm saying that fury's win over klitschko is better than mayweather's...

I've been reading for 7 pages and still can't figure out what your saying. But I'd like to.

My issue is what the *** is "better"? Too many ways to define that. There's no question the Fury win was the bigger upset. As you said, hardly anyone picked Fury to win. And I do know many people picked Manny, not just fanboys. So of course the Klit win was the bigger upset.

Was it the greater accomplishment? If this is where you're standing then I can begin to see your side. Even though Manny may be recognized as the greater fighter P4P over Vlad, Fury was completely expected to loose. But did Fury beat a better quality fighter than Floyd did?

Huge win by Fury and maybe i've got a problem because I actually enjoyed the fight. But if I'm picking fighter OTY between Floyd and Fury then Floyd takes it.

Just to pour salt in the wounds of all the haters:

"The Boxing Channel recognizes Premier Boxing Champions as the 2015 Promoter of the Year. Some may protest, stating that the Al Haymon project labeled "Premier Boxing Champions" is not a true promoter. They may argue that Bob Arum's Top Rank, Oscar De La Hoya's Golden Boy, or another more traditional promotional company would be a more appropriate winner.

Boxing continues to be a beautiful, yet imperfect sport. And yes, the emergence of the PBC series has involved various allegations of running a monopoly, along with a variety of lawsuits. However, this award is strictly for boxing promoting, and in its simplest definition, it pertains to who did the best job publicizing the sport and providing quality shows for the people."

Tough Call

This year there wasn't a fighter who had a great year in regards to beating the best competition. Examples Money May and Canelo both beat A to A plus guys in Pac and Cotto however they had easy give me wins this year when they fought Kirkland and Berto

I would also say guys like Fury, DeGale, GGG, and Roman Gonzalez also deserved mentioned.

So their really was no clear cut winner of the award and any of these guys you can make a strong argument for.

Money May would probably get the edge over beating a legend, making history, and just career achievement.

If you don't know the difference there's not a lot I can tell you.

wlad was so dominant that he so he couldnt stop jennings so he decided to fake an injury when it was time for his next fight to get more ready...oh and then he presented ring and glove issues...
Man suck my cok and *** off

When is the last time Pacquiao stopped anyone?

[LacedUp]

marquez..enough said!
Peterson and devon where top class at 140..hell peterson just beat the 140 lineal champ and was robbed..
How do i block this mf?

In what world was Peterson top at 140? Certainly not this one!

The ones I listed were the top guys outside of Devon Alexander at 140 and Bradley fought none of them.

[LacedUp]

... I was rooting for Wlad, but only before those 'gloves' and 'ring' issues, man...
... I guess you also saw that sinking mat, doe...

... Unfortunately, it seemed that Wlad was really scared, man...

So scared he jumped straight into a rematch.

Wlad was exactly the same as he always was. He was always a scared fighter or whatever you want to call it.

In this fight, Fury just exposed that weakness by taking away his physical advantages.
