ESB Fighter of the Year

^^^ Well said... Peronsally I say mayweather, but I am biased towards Mayweather but I definilty wouldn't have a problem with any of those 3 winning, all great years

 

I think that Cotto was the most consistant performer of the year, and runs a very close second to Mayweather. But, on the whole, there were more mitigating circumstances surrounding his two biggest wins, then there were with Floyd's two biggest wins, and that's what tips it for me. Don't blame anyone for choosing Cotto, though.

 

wasnt taylor a champ?
wasnt miranda a top 5 contender?
wasnt zertuche a fringe contender?
wasnt dlh an atg, titlist at a higher weight, his 5th weight class?
wasnt hatton an undisputed, undefeated champion at a weight class that is/is over mayweathers natural fighting weight?


wow, what bias.

 

ah...the old "blown up hatton" excuse. Hatton went up one weight class to fight someone who shouldnt of been at 147 anyway. The fight being at 147 didnt change the significance of the fight whatsoever.

 

In my mind, this was a year that deserved the co-fighter of the year award.

 

Cotto for me all wicked fighters but cotto imo he is happy to fight anybody anywere a real champ

Pavlik for me had a great year but has a bit more to prove

Mayweather best p4p for sure but needs to fight the best at his weight he has the money now its time to make the fights

 

Kelly Pavlik, and im not even a fan, but he deserves FOTY.

 

I note there's no Joe here. Strange the best in the best fight would be left out.

 

Pavlik. If only for exposing that HBO Fraud Taylor. :nod

 

kelly

 

i think pavlik, he basically went from nobody to the king of the divison, in 2007 he hit the middleweight like hurricane.

 

****!

i didn't realize cotto only had 16 votes, i would have voted for him!!!

 

Pavlik

Their are a lot of people on that Mayweather band wagon that don't like to discuss this topic, but they are still out there and vote for their man non the less.
