    According to Arum, Pac had the injury since 2008 and it didn't cause any problems for him for 7 years. http://ftw.usatoday.com/2015/05/bob-arum-says-manny-pacquiaos-shoulder-has-been-injured-since-2008

    Suddenly he gets schooled by Floyd, and his shoulder hurt:-( Why didn't the cameras in the corners have any audio ohim complaining about it in the corner. Why he did he not once wince in pain or grimace? Why was he still winging wild right hooks late in the fight? Because the shoulder injury was just a bull**** excuse.

    Floyd would be the unanimous FOTY if he fought Pac in 2010, but he waited to fight a pale copy of that Pac.

    Yep even though Floyd is 2 years older, he is immune to aging and was still in his prime:nut:-(

    Floyd waited and waited and waited and retired, and came back and waited and waited and waited. UNTIL THE TIME WAS RIGHT!!! For every bit of waiting that he did a little bit more respect was lost on the result.

    Fighter of the year? More like a cancer on the sport for a decade.

    Furt's win over Wlad is more significant IMO, does that make him FOTY? IDK tbh, Floys had better two wins overall.

    Why should Fraud be rewarded for making a fight 5 years to late ?

    Sorry but he is not the FOTY hell Dury has a better case than Fraud !

    Hugger and runner does not deserve FOTY. Even with the iv scam he pulled off, even with the handsome purse split. Fark all that! i wanted to see Void give the fans action. But the con artist that he is he bettcch out he fought like a biyotch. That's fighter of the year? GTFO :rofl

    100% true, it's actually a fact but nothing in boxing or any sport can be a true fact since only wins and losses are facts.

    To me (aj Wilder and ortiz) are so much better than fury could ever be..

    Fury, to me is a solid b+ fighter with c- skills. His focus and determination are A's

    Jesus wouldn't have been a boxing fan.

    Hell, boxing existed in his own time and wasn't even particularly new. Have you ever come across canonical accounts of him attending the fights? Nope. :good

    I'd have Gonzalaz as first choice followed by Mayweather and Fury, anyone s a good choice and really the only ones that should be considered
