Fighter of the Year 2008?

becomes undisputed champion at 130

in 1 year.

 

Pac handsdown... Margo 2nd...

 

1 Pacquiao
2 Margarito
3 Dawson
4 Calzaghe
5 Darchinyan

 

Manny Pacquiao, easily.

 

How the hell could you miss Vic Darchinyan? Only one to beat 2 champions, unify 3 titles and beat an actual P4P-er - all in one year.

PacMan will be FOTY, no doubt, but barely in my book: on my card he lost to JMM. But his performances were great vs. JMM, Diaz and DLH, so he's the logical choice.

But Darchinyan is very underrated. Margarito did not beat Cotto for 3 titles or won every single round. Hopkins did not win a title by beating Pavlik. Calzaghe did well, but Roy was too old and the Hopkins win is not enough. Hatton... lol.

It's PacMan vs. Vic, and why not, my vote goes to Vic "Other" Darchinyan.

My vote is on Vic Darchinyan.

 

Pac by a mile. Darchi is a poor 3rd or 4th. Margo 2nd.

 

:deal

 

well he did well recovering from that starching my boy Donaire gave him, i appluad him but......no way did he give Pac a run for his money

he had a Draw and 2 wins, one against a titlist, and one against a P4P elite

Pac beat the #3 P4P fighter (who's now #2 of course) then moved up a weight class, and absolutely destroyed a limited but very tough titlist, then jumped 2 more weight classes and destroyed a legend when not many thought he would win, much less took him seriously

Pac was in a class all by himself this year, c'mon now....Vic had a great year, but Pac had a legendary year
