    I agree Pacquiao should have won. But that there tells theres a case for a Horn win. And there was.
    Calling it a
    Is extreme

    So you point out Floyd's close fights, but ignore or make an excuse for Pac's and we're supposed to accept your extreme bias? Nah...lol

    That's fair.

    Sorry, I mean Pac vs Floyd and Pac vs Marquez aren't controversial.

    Pacquiao doesn't deserve fighter of the decade. He won't win.

    I can respect that. Please present your case for Fighter of the Decade.

    I'd give it to a Floyd. He beat Shane, Pac, Canelo, Maidana and Cotto. I only have a Canelo and Pac in the vote. I still believe that what Floyd did is enough. The only other fighters who should even get votes are Canelo who has a case and Pacquiao. It's between those 3. In this decade, out of Pacs 4 losses, 2 are suspect in my book and, and out of Canelos 4 close fights(he only has 1 loss) in which a few said that many believe that he lost to GGG in fight 1 and some believe fight 2, lost to Floyd, and many say he lost to Lara.

    I'm taking Floyd.

    Andre Ward imo just hasn't had enough big fights in this decade. Imo he just hasn't had enough fights either. He has some decent wins just not enough. Abraham, Froch, Dawson and Kov who many thought won fight 1.

    Ward would be my #2 — he lost to Kovalev the first time, but cleaning out the Super Six was very impressive.

    If Ward beat Aj like everyone with a boxing brain knew would happen, I'd be on board..
    @Pakkuman seems to be right though.. Just because Floyd beat Manny doesn't mean he had a better decade imho.

    Manny beating Thurman was a HUGE legacy fight imo..

    I remember a few years ago many thought Thurman would beat Manny & Floyd.

    Canelo had some sketchy fights Trout/Lara that hold him back imo. Great job beating GGG but meh, Pac has too much body of work ranks higher than Canelo imo.

    Mayweather would be a fine choice actually. PPV records and he beat Pacquiao, Cotto, and Canelo. In fact, he dominated Canelo for 12 straight rounds.

    If Pac doesnt win Fighter of the Era & Fighter of the Decade then its one more black eye due to corruption in boxing. End of Story

    Hes obviously right right right there.... but... I really do have a hard time ranking him over a Floyd that has Canelo, JMM and Pac on his resume in the same timeframe, fairly easily imo, and also didnt get brutally KOd in the process.

    I get everything youre saying... and I wouldn't be upset if Pac gets it, but... for me, idk... its tough.
