    Marquez deserves it the most...but because of ***** ass Arum's judges, he wont get it.


    Most likely the Super 6 winner gets it...Donaire is a good shout, as well as Brandon Rios (who hasnt been mentioned yet)

    If it was up to me I'd give it to Marquez. Doesn't matter if he officially lost his last bout. It's about performance, not convincing the judges. Rios deserves to be mentioned. Guy's destroyed 3 fighters who range from avg to good. Fair enough if or when the S6 winner takes it.

    COTTO faught like a coward, he ran, no good footwork. If the fight went the distance, he probably would of quit.


    P.S.

    I hate Margartio

    In what world do victories over Mayorga and Margarito (in the year 2011 mind u) warrant Fighter of the Year honors?

    It should be Floyd. He only fought once, but it was against for current prime champ that had the reputation of knocking down every fighter he has fought. Mayweather chumped him and KHTFO!

    Brandon Rios would get my vote. Slight issue not making weight for the Murray fight but that only slightly takes away from his dominant year against solid competition.

    Ward/Froch winner would be the runner up.

    As much as I like Cotto he can't possibly get fighter of the year for beating Mayorga and Concreto.

    ridiculous.

    Nah, forget it......You're right, it was a very cowardly way of kicking the **** out someone.


    PS- No, Cotto shouldn't be FOTY.

    People need to stop saying this. Marquez only lost on paper and the fight was not close.

    I had Marquez winning too but to say the fight wasn't close is silly. I also thought it was one-sided for Marquez till I saw it again.

    Ill watch it again but I dont remember it being close and cant see myself changing my mind. Even when pac did land his punches didnt seem to have any substance or land flush.
