Fighters Of The Decade... 1940s - Present.

Thats a pretty damn good list!

 

In the 2000's we haven't had a fighter that was so dominate that the could be called FOTD like Jones did in the 90's for example. I can't argue about giving it to Mayweather. Although Pac is should be mentioned. For the Calzag people out there, he is a great fighter, but he isn't a dominant in or especially intiminating fighter, thats why still it would be a toss up if he goes against some elite fighters in or around 168....
I'd give the 80's to Hagler... I heard form many that Ezzard Charles was the best in the 50's.

 

ya fine list i would prefer hearns or hagler over leonard but inever really liked leonard

 

Hopkins over Floyd IMO.

 

Co-sign :good

 

2000 should be Pac IMO...that aside i agree 100%

 

Every official fighter of the year since 1922 to 2007. Thought it might help find the best fighter in each decade

Agreed. I'd also consider putting Monzon over Duran, although I think the two were both so fantastic it's hard to say.

 

40s - J. Louis
50s- R. Robinson
60s- M. Ali
70s- R. Duran
80s- M.Tyson
90s- L. Lewis
00s- F. Mayweather

 

if hopkins is the fighter of the decade it has truly been a **** one for boxing. mayweather all the way

 

It would have been a worse decade for boxing if Mayweather was the fighter of the decade

 

Hopkins and Pacman ahead of Floyd IMO

 

I would have to say Mayweather because he dominated more than Hopkins did. Hopkins lost three times in this decade while Mayweather still has his "0".
The quality of opposition is debateable but I say it has got to be Mayweather or Pac-man.

 

Agreed
