how can they have a 2019 award in July ?

how does espy work..... it's just a fan poll, right ?

Canelo faced better fighters than the other nominees over the last yr. He's not better than Crawford or Loma but you won't win fighter of the yr by beating amir khan and pedraza.

I honestly don't know I think it is fan vote because usually the more popular athletes win it

He’s wayyyyyy better than those two. How in the hell did Crawford and Spence even get their credit. Those guys have fought nobody.....

Notice how he doesn't thank DAZN. Those amateurs are on borrowed time, they have no idea how manage a superstar. Their recklessness will come back to haunt them when they try to recruit future stars. If fighters view DAZN as an entity like the UFC, where they dictate your opponents, they will steer clear 9 times out of 10.

Interesting view...Why would they do that? To "marinate" fights? Say what you will about UFC - they have lots of problems, but best not fighting the best isn't one of them. Maybe boxing would benefit a bit from some "pull your sht together and fight the best" directions from somebody who pays your bills. Besides, don't promoters dictate (or "influence"? ) who their fighters should fight?
