Thurman's done more at 147 than any active fighter not named Manny Pacquiao. Spence's best win was against a weight drained Brook, who got his face punched in by GGG. Crawford's best win was against a bum, who got a gift decision against Pac. Porter lost to Thurman, and Garcia lost to both Thurman and Porter. Sure, Thurman looked like shit against Lopez and lost to Pac, but that doesn't detract from his achievements at 147.
Will Pacquiao win Fighter of the Decade again?

He started the decade at the top of the P4P list, and after the Thurman win, he's probably going to end the decade in most P4P top ten lists.Comment

I think Pac should win it. Pac has did what no natural WW has did in over 100 year history of boxing. A former flyweight being oldest WW champ ever? Are you trying to tell me no natural ww in history has been a champ at 40years of age and a former flyweight with 71 fights is first?
I couldn't believe that stat when I learned that today. You mean all the great natural WWs, srr, srl etc etc couldn't produce goods at 40?
Pac is FOTD again.Comment

For a guy who started the decade at the age of 31 (and already had 15 years of pro fights under his belt) he's accomplished a lot more than most of the young fighters who spent most of the decade in their prime: like Adrien Broner who started the decade at 20, and ended the decade losing to a 40 year old Pacquiao.I think Pac should win it.

Canelo spent most of the decade in his prime but didn't dominate his top level opponents like Mayweather, Trout, Lara, Cotto, or GGG.Comment

If Canelo pulls off a Kov win at 175 before the end of the year, he may get Fighter of the Decade over Pac.
Sources tell The Athletic that Canelo Alvarez and Sergey Kovalev are finalizing a deal to meet in a light heavyweight title fight streamed on DAZN after weeks of talks. The fight, which will be announced in the next week, is expected to take place Nov. 2 at Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena

Pac's decade -
Thurman (would have been nice if he were active)
Bradley 3x (went life and death vs primitive Ruslan)
JMM 2x (That go to sleep fight. the kind Pac couldn't inflict)
May (Pac's shoulder took one for the team
)
A bunch of slobs
A few way past their primes
No way does he deserve to be mentionedComment
