    WBC, WBAA, ESPN, RING MAGAZINE etc. are all in agree that pac is the FIGHTER OF THE DECADE.
    Pac lost in that decade and used PEDs to beat fringe contenders.

    Even still he is in the conversation with Calzaghe and Klits...all behind Floymod

          Hardly a shock argument lol

          Robinson is widely regarded as the best ever. Only Ali, possibly Pep, Armstrong and Leonard breathe that rarified air.

          Just going to The Ring list, I've always found it weird that Duran gets the fotd for the 1970s, when he never faced anyone of the calibre of Norton, let alone frazier and foreman. Ali should also be a two time winner imo.

            BY THE RING

            Best fighter pound-for-pound in each of the past 10 decades.

            1910s: Sam Langford — Small man beat the best big men of his day. Runner up: Jimmy Wilde.

            1920s: Benny Leonard — Some still say he’s the greatest lightweight ever. Runner up: Harry Greb.

            1930s: Henry Armstrong — Held titles in three weight classes simultaneously. Runner up: Tony Canzoneri.

            1940s: Ray Robinson – Untouchable as a welterweight. Runner up: Willie Pep

            1950s: Ray Robinson – Also one of the greatest middleweights ever. Runner up: Archie Moore.

            1960s: Muhammad Ali – The Greatest really was the greatest at this time. Runner up: Carlos Ortiz.

            1970s: Roberto Duran – Virtually untouchable as a lightweight. Runner up: Carlos Monzon.

            1980s: Ray Leonard: His victories over Duran, Hearns and Hagler were epic. Runner up: Julio Cesar Chavez
            .
            1990s: Roy Jones Jr. – At his best, he inspired awe. Runner up: Pernell Whitaker.

            2000s: Manny Pacquiao – Sorry Floyd but you need to fight the best to be the best. Runner up: Floyd Mayweather.
            Would love to have seen prime Pac v Robinson catchweight it at 145

                  Broner is definitely fighter of the decade, ask Larry.
