    You could make a case for Manny Pacquiao,Floyd Mayweather or Bernard Hopkins and it is very close between the three of them.

    There is nothing close about it... if `fighter of the decade`goes to anyone other than Floyd Mayweather it would be just plain bull****, Pac & Hop are 2 OF the best this decade but even tho I dont like him & pray he loses every time he fights only a complete biased moron will vote for someone other than Mayweather.

    Pac has lost 3 times, Hop has lost 5 times, Floyd has lost 0 times & is a 5 weight champion & not only that... he actually is the best boxer of all would be entrants.

    Mayweather should win this vote hands down... End of.

    I't doesn't make sense that nobody is voting for Manny.I did a thread a while back about who was greater Floyd or Manny and Manny came out comfortably ahead.

    That's a popularity contest and means nothing. PBF is hated around here.

    Firstly this poll is two years too early and there is one name that is obviously missing.
    Floyd is clearly the fighter of the 2000's at the moment, but if he doesn't come back, or comes back and loses, then it basically depends on how long Calzaghe stays around, and what Pac does in the next couple of years.
    At the moment for me its:
    1. Floyd
    2. Calzaghe
    3. Pac
    4. Bernard

    Mayweather is the Jones of the noughties.

    I think we will definately see him back in the ring before the decade is out.

    The decade is not over yet so it's hard to make that call.

    a lot of Oscars best moment came in the 90's, his career is kind of split over the two decades, so his case for the 2000's is fairly weak given loses to Mosely twice, Bhop and Mayweather, unless he goes on to beat Pac, Hatton and one or two other top fighters then he doesnt have a case
